Abstract
- A new iron-sulfur cluster compound, namely [(μ-BNT)Fe<subscript>2</subscript>(CO)<subscript>6</subscript>] ( A; BNT = ( R)-1,1′-binaphthalene-2,2′-dithiol), was synthesized by self-assembly of BNT with [Fe<subscript>3</subscript>(CO)<subscript>12</subscript>] and characterized using <superscript>1</superscript>H NMR, <superscript>13</superscript>C NMR, infrared spectra and elemental analysis. The H<subscript>2</subscript> evolution activity of A was evaluated in a constructed homogeneous photocatalytic system by combining A as catalyst, xanthene dyes as photosensitizer and triethylamine as sacrificial reagent, to give efficient H<subscript>2</subscript> generation under visible-light irradiation ( λ > 420 nm). The maximum H<subscript>2</subscript> evolution of 404 turnovers (versus catalyst) was recorded under optimal conditions in CH<subscript>3</subscript>CN-H<subscript>2</subscript>O (1:1, v/v) after 4 h irradiation. The mechanism of H<subscript>2</subscript> evolution is briefly discussed using fluorescence spectra and electrochemical analysis. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
