Neutral nickel() phthalocyanine as a stable catalyst for visible-light-driven hydrogen evolution from water

Neutral nickel( ii ) phthalocyanine was found to be an efficient and stable catalyst for photocatalytic H 2 evolution from water when coupled with an iridium complex as the photosensitizer and triethanolamine as the sacrificial electron donor. The result shows that the Ni-N sigma bond can enhance th...

Description
Summary:Neutral nickel( ii ) phthalocyanine was found to be an efficient and stable catalyst for photocatalytic H 2 evolution from water when coupled with an iridium complex as the photosensitizer and triethanolamine as the sacrificial electron donor. The result shows that the Ni-N sigma bond can enhance the stability of the catalyst. A neutral nickel( ii ) phthalocyanine complex with two Ni-N sigma bonds was reported to be a highly stable catalyst for visible-light-driven H 2 production from water in a homogeneous system when paired with an iridium( iii ) photosensitizer and triethanolamine as a sacrificial electron donor.
