Moreover, the overall reaction pathway is expected to be more thermodynamically favorable (Figure ), with nitrogen acting as an electronic modulator that supports the efficient transition from atomic hydrogen (H) to hydrogen molecules (H₂). The substantial Gibbs free energy (Figure ) difference between H and H₂ (ΔG ≈ -0.211 eV) suggests that the combination of platinum's high hydrogenation capabilities and nitrogen's stabilization of hydrogen species will streamline the H → H₂ step. This interaction is likely to improve the catalytic turnover frequency by reducing the energy barrier for both proton reduction and hydrogen recombination, enhancing the material's overall catalytic efficiency. The N-Pt-N phenalene model is, therefore, predicted to exhibit superior performance in hydrogen evolution applications, making it a promising candidate for use in electrochemical water splitting and other renewable energy technologies. The cooperative role of nitrogen and platinum within the aromatic phenalene matrix can be seen as a dynamic system that offers a stable, highly efficient platform for hydrogen production under a variety of operational conditions.
