Abstract:
The contrasting early-time photodynamics of two related Ru/Pt photocatalysts with very different photocatalytic H-2 generation capabilities are reported. Ultrafast equilibration (535 +/- 17 fs) creates an electron reservoir on the peripheral ligands of the ester substituted complex, allowing a dramatic increase in photocatalytic performance. This insight opens the way towards a novel design strategy for H-2 generating molecular photocatalysts.
