Abstract

An indium selenide [Bmmim]₆[In₁₀Se₁₆Cl₄]·(MIm)₂ (Bmmim = 1-butyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium, MIm = 1-methylimidazole) cluster has been synthesized and characterized. The discrete T3 cluster could be stably dispersed in dimethyl sulfoxide, exhibiting photocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity at least six times that of the pristine in the solid state due to the exposure of more active sites.
