Abstract

Light-driven H2 production is catalyzed by [Ni(P2PhN2Ph)2](BF4)2 when irradiated with visible light in water/acetonitrile mixed solvent in the presence of a photosensitizer (PS) and ascorbate. The catalyst gives over 2700 turnovers over 150 h, and does not degrade despite photodecomposition of the PS.
