| Abstract | In order to diminish environmental issues such as global warming due to increased carbo dioxide (CO2) emissions, considerable efforts have been made in the research community. Photocatalytic hydrogen (H2) production is a very important way towards this goal, since sunlight is an abundant source of energy and H2 is a clean fuel, producing no greenhouse gases. Inexpensive, stable and non-toxic carbon dots were easily synthesized and used as photosensitizers in water in the presence of a series of molecular cobalt catalysts (CoTSC). The catalysts were thiosemicarbazonebased complexes able to transfer electrons for hydrogen evolution reaction. Under visible light irradiation, the nitrogen-doped carbon dots (NCdots) transfer the photoexcited electrons to the catalyst, producing an activity of 358 μmol gNCdot-1 h-1 (TONCo=570) for CoTSC-N(CH3)2CN after 24h of irradiation. These types of molecular catalysts display great activity and stability in combination with the easily synthesized and modified carbon dot materials. |
