Abstract
Co(aPPy) is one of the most stable and active molecular first-row transition-metal catalysts for proton reduction reported to date. Understanding the origin of its high performance via mechanistic studies could aid in developing even better catalysts. In this work, the catalytic mechanism of Co(aPPy) was electrochemically probed, in both organic solvents and water. We found that different mechanisms can occur depending on the solvent and the acidity of the medium. In organic solvent with a strong acid as the proton source, catalysis initiates directly after a single-electron reduction of CoII to CoI, whereas in the presence of a weaker acid, the cobalt center needs to be reduced twice before catalysis occurs. In the aqueous phase, we found drastically different electrochemical behavior, where the Co(aPPy) complex was found to be a precatalyst to a different electrocatalytic species. We propose that in this active catalyst, the pyridine ring has dissociated and acts as a proton relay at pH ≤ 5, which opens up a fast protonation pathway of the CoI intermediate and results in a high catalytic activity. Furthermore, we determined with constant potential bulk electrolysis that the catalyst is most stable at pH 3. The catalyst thus functions optimally at low pH in an aqueous environment, where the pyridine acts as a proton shuttle and where the high acidity also prevents catalyst deactivation.

Abstract
Photoredox properties of several earth-abundant light-harvesting transition metal complexes in combination with cobalt-based proton reduction catalysts have been investigated computationally to assess the fundamental viability of different photocatalytic systems of current experimental interest. Density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) calculations using several GGA (BP86, BLYP), hybrid-GGA (B3LYP, B3LYP*), hybrid meta-GGA (M06, TPSSh), and range-separated hybrid (ωB97X, CAM-B3LYP) functionals were used to calculate relevant ground and excited state reduction potentials for photosensitizers, catalysts, and sacrificial electron donors. Linear energy correction factors for the DFT/TD-DFT results that provide the best agreement with available experimental reference results were determined in order to provide more accurate predictions. Among the selection of functionals, the B3LYP* and TPSSh sets of correction parameters were determined to give the best redox potentials and excited states energies, ΔEexc, with errors of ∼0.2 eV. Linear corrections for both reduction and oxidation processes significantly improve the predictions for all the redox pairs. In particular, for TPSSh and B3LYP*, the calculated errors decrease by more than 0.5 V against experimental values for catalyst reduction potentials, photosensitizer oxidation potentials, and electron donor oxidation potentials. Energy-corrected TPSSh results were finally used to predict the energetics of complete photocatalytic cycles for the light-driven activation of selected proton reduction cobalt catalysts. These predictions demonstrate the broader usefulness of the adopted approach to systematically predict full photocycle behavior for first-row transition metal photosensitizer-catalyst combinations more broadly.

Abstract
The production of hydrogen gas using water as the molecular substrate currently represents one of the most challenging and appealing reaction schemes in the field of artificial photosynthesis (AP), i.e., the conversion of solar energy into fuels. In order to be efficient, this process requires a suitable combination of a light-harvesting sensitizer, an electron donor, and a hydrogen-evolving catalyst (HEC). In the last few years, cobalt polypyridine complexes have been discovered to be competent molecular catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), showing enhanced efficiency and stability with respect to previously reported molecular species. This perspective collects information about all relevant cobalt polypyridine complexes employed for the HER in aqueous solution under light-driven conditions in the presence of Ru(bpy)32+ (where bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) as the photosensitizer and ascorbate as the electron donor, trying to highlight promising chemical motifs and aiming towards efficient catalytic activity in order to stimulate further efforts to design molecular catalysts for hydrogen generation and allow their profitable implementation in devices. As a final step, a few suggestions for the benchmarking of HECs employed under light-driven conditions are introduced.

Abstract
A catalytic system based on earth-abundant elements that efficiently hydrogenates aryl olefins using visible light as the driving-force and H2O as the sole hydrogen atom source is reported. The catalytic system involves a robust and well-defined aminopyridine cobalt complex and a heteroleptic Cu photoredox catalyst. The system shows the reduction of styrene in aqueous media with a remarkable selectivity (>20 000) versus water reduction (WR). Reactivity and mechanistic studies support the formation of a [Co–H] intermediate, which reacts with the olefin via a hydrogen atom transfer (HAT). Synthetically useful deuterium-labelled compounds can be straightforwardly obtained by replacing H2O with D2O. Moreover, the dual photocatalytic system and the photocatalytic conditions can be rationally designed to tune the selectivity for aryl olefin vs. aryl ketone reduction; not only by changing the structural and electronic properties of the cobalt catalysts, but also by modifying the reduction properties of the photoredox catalyst. A dual catalytic system based on earth-abundant elements reduces aryl olefins to alkanes in aqueous media under visible light. Mechanistic studies allow for rational tunning of the system for the selective reduction of aryl olefins vs ketones and vice versa.![]()

Abstract
High-throughput synthesis and screening methods were used to measure the photochemical activity of 1440 distinct heteroleptic [Ir(C^N)2(N^N)]+ complexes for the photoreduction of Sn(II) and Zn(II) cations to their corresponding neutral metals. Kinetic data collection was carried out using home-built photoreactors and measured initial rates, obtained through an automated fitting algorithm, spanned between 0-120 μM/s for Sn(0) deposition and 0-90 μM/s for Zn(0) deposition. Photochemical reactivity was compared to photophysical properties previously measured such as deaerated excited state lifetime and emission spectral data for these same complexes; however, no clear correlations among these features were observed. A formal photochemical rate law was then developed to help elucidate the observed reactivity. Initial rates were found to be directly correlated to the product of incident photon flux with three reaction elementary efficiencies: (1) the fraction of light absorbed by the photocatalyst, (2) the fraction of excited state species that are quenched by the electron donor, and (3) the cage escape efficiency. The most active catalysts exhibit high efficiencies for all three steps, and catalyst engineering requirements to maximize these elementary efficiencies were postulated. The kinetic treatment provided the mechanistic information needed to decipher the observed structure/function trends in the high-throughput work.

Abstract
The electronic effect of the substituent has been fully leveraged to improve the activity of molecular water reduction catalysts (WRCs). However, the steric effect of the substituents has received less attention. In this work, a steric hindrance effect was observed in a quinoline-involved polypyridyl Co complex-based water reduction catalyst (WRC), which impedes the formation of Co(iii)-H from Co(i), two pivotal intermediates for H2 evolution, leading to significantly impaired electrocatalytic and photocatalytic activity with respect to its parent complex, [Co(TPA)Cl]Cl (TPA = tris(2-pyridinylmethyl)-amine). In sharp contrast, two isoquinoline-involved polypyridyl Co complexes exhibited significantly improved H2 evolution efficiencies compared to [Co(TPA)Cl]Cl, benefitting mainly from the more basic and conjugated features of isoquinoline over pyridine. The dramatically different influences caused by the replacement of a pyridine group in the TPA ligand by quinoline and isoquinoline fully demonstrates the important roles of both the electronic and steric effects of a substituent. Our results may provide novel insights for designing more efficient WRCs.

Abstract
Three new isomeric cobalt complexes of TPA (tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine) based on methoxy substitution at the ortho, meta and para positions, respectively, were constructed and their photocatalytic proton reduction efficiencies were compared. It was found that there are good linear correlations with the Hammett constants of the substituents for the computed Co–N bond lengths, redox potentials of CoII/I and CoI/0 events, and the photocatalytic activities of the complexes. The ortho-substituted Co complex distinguished itself from the others remarkably in all these comparisons, demonstrating the presence of a steric effect besides the electronic effect. For other examined complexes, a stronger electron-donating substituent may lead to a higher hydrogen evolution efficiency, suggesting that the formation of a Co(iii) hydride intermediate is the rate-limiting step. Three isomeric Co complexes showed a significant substituent electronic effect in photocatalytic hydrogen production.![]()

Abstract
We report on the synthesis, redox, electronic, and catalytic behavior of two new cobalt(iii) complexes, namely [CoIII(L1)MeOH] (1) and [CoIII(L2)MeOH] (2). These species contain nitro-rich, phenolate-based pentadentate ligands and present dramatically distinct properties associated with the position in which the -NO2 substituents are installed. Species 1 displays nitro-substituted phenolates, and exhibits irreversible redox response and negligible catalytic activity, whereas 2 has fuctionalized phenylene moieties, shows much improved redox reversibility and catalytic proton reduction activity at low overpotentials. A concerted experimental and theoretical approach sheds some light on these drastic differences.

Abstract
GaIII porphyrin is active for electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution with unusual features, including ligand-centered electron transfer and formation of post-transition metal hydride.
GaIII chloride tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrin (1) was synthesized and shown to be a highly active and stable post-transition metal-based electrocatalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Electrochemical and spectroscopic studies indicate that both the first and second reduction events of 1 are ligand-centered. The 2e-reduced form 12– reacts with a proton to give GaIII–H species (1–H), which undergoes protonolysis with Brønsted acids to produce H2. The identification of key intermediates 1–, 12–, and 1–H leads to a catalytic cycle, which is valuable for the fundamental understanding of the HER. This study presents a rare but highly active HER electrocatalyst with unusual features, including ligand-centered electron transfer and formation of post-transition metal hydride.

Abstract
Kinetic and thermodynamic aspects of proton reduction involving pentapyridine cobalt(II) complex were investigated with the help of quantum chemical calculations. Free energy profile of all possible mechanistic routes for proton reduction was constructed with the consideration of both anation and solvent bound pathways. The computed free energy profile shows that acetate ion plays a significant role in modulating the kinetic aspects of Co(III)-hydride formation which is found to be the key intermediate for proton reduction. Upon replacing solvent by acetate ion, one electron reduction and protonation of CoI species become more rapid along with slow displacement reaction. Most favorable pathways for hydrogen evolution from Co(III)-hydride species is also investigated. Among the four possible pathways, reduction followed by protonation of Co(III)-hydride (RPP) is found to be the most feasible pathway. On the basis of QTAIM and NBO analyses, the electronic origin of most favorable pathway is explained. The basicity of cobalt center along with thermodynamic stability of putative CoIII/II-H species is essentially a prime factor in deciding the most favorable pathway for hydrogen evolution. Our computed results are in good agreement with experimental observations and also provided adequate information to design cobalt-based molecular electrocatalysts for proton reduction in future.
