There is an ever-mounting need for a renewable source of green energy. Hydrogen is a promising source as its combustion results in water instead of carbon emissions. One arm in advancing hydrogen production is through hydrogen evolution catalysts. These catalysts are especially interesting if they can be synthesized from non-precious metals, are aqueous stable, and are uniquely active in a wide range of pH conditions. This presentation will discuss, but is not limited to, molecular cobalt complexes with pentadentate ligand scaffolds derived from pyridine and its derivatives, structural and mechanistic analysis, and comparisons between photocatalytic and electrocatalytic performance.
