ABSTRACT
The utilization of low-energy sunlight to produce renewable fuels is a subject of great interest. Here we report the first example of metal chalcogenide quantum dots (QDs) capped with a pyridinethiolate carboxylic acid (pyS-COOH) for red-light-driven H2 production in water. The precious-metal-free system is robust over 240 h, and achieves a turnover number (TON) of 43910 ± 305 (vs Ni) with a rate of 31570 ± 1690 mmol g-1 h-1 for hydrogen production. In contrast to the inactive QDs capped with other thiolate ligands, the CdSe-pyS-COOH QDs give a significantly higher singlet oxygen quantum yield [ΦΔ (1O2)] in solution.
