Abstract

The reaction of H2ATSE with Pd(CH3CN)2Cl2 affords a new palladium complex, Pd-ATSE, which has been characterized by physico-chemical and spectroscopic methods. EPR investigations show that there are the couplings of 105Pd with the neighboring 14N and 33S nuclei from the ATSE2- ligand. Under an overpotential of 837.6 mV, Pd-ATSE can afford 666 mol of hydrogen per mole of catalyst per hour. Under blue light (λ = 469 nm), together with CdS nanorods (CdS NRs) and ascorbic acid (H2A), Pd-ATSE can catalyze hydrogen generation with a turnover number (TON) of 3520 mol H2 per mol of catalyst (mol of cat−1) during 28 h irradiation.
