An unprecedented {Ni14SiW9} hybrid polyoxometalate with high photocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity. Issue 29 (20th March 2019) - Paille, Grégoire
Abstract : A unique polyoxometalate with 14 nickel and 9 tungsten ions catalyses the reduction of protons under visible light. Abstract : A unique polyoxometalate complex made up of a tetradecanuclear nickel bisphosphonate cluster capping a {SiW9 } unit has been characterized. This stable compound exhibits a high hydrogen evolution reaction photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation via a reductive quenching mechanism.
