Proposed Ligand-Centered Electrocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution and Hydrogen Oxidation at a Noninnocent Mononuclear Metal–Thiolate

“…[6][7][8][9] Subsequently, numerous H 2 evolution catalysts were reported including a number of metal-dithiolene complexes with high TOF. [10][11][12][13][14][15] Despite these advances, few H 2 oxidation catalysts are known and even fewer complexes catalyze the reaction in both directions. 16,17 In this manuscript, we report electrocatalytic H 2 evolution and H 2 oxidation using the non-innocent mononuclear metal-thiolate complex ReL 3 (L = diphenylphosphinobenzenethiolate).…”

Mechanism of a one-photon two-electron process in photocatalytic hydrogen evolution from ascorbic acid with a cobalt chlorin complex

“…1 A number of highly efficient hydrogen evolving systems have been developed including homogeneous and heterogeneous photocatalytic systems. [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] Two electrons are required to produce H 2 from protons, although one photon generates normally only one electron. A mechanism of photocatalytic production of H 2 was reported to clarify how photoinduced electron transfer of a photosensitiser (a one-electron process) leads to H 2 production (a two-electron process).…”
