Robust photocatalytic waterreduction with cyclometalated Ir(iii) 4-vinyl-2,2′-bipyridine complexes

Abstract

Novel [Ir(C⁁N)2(N⁁N)]+ complexes with N⁁N ligands containing vinyl groups were synthesized resulting in quintupled turn-over numbers for the photocatalytic hydrogen production compared to the analogous non-vinyl compounds.
