Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>The development of catalysts</bold> for the oxidation of water using ligands with a non‐innocent character could potentially be employed for the rational design of efficient water‐oxidation catalysts. In their Full Paper on <ext-link ext-link-type="doi" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">page 10039 ff.</ext-link>, B. Åkermark, M. D. Kärkäs, R.‐Z. Liao and co‐workers explore the mechanistic details associated with a dinuclear Ru‐based water‐oxidation catalyst. Combining experimental studies and quantum chemical calculations provides insight into the fundamental principles controlling the reactivity of the catalyst, in which metal–ligand cooperation is a vital part.<graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgj1c48vfwh" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></p> </abstract>
