Increasing interest has been paid to the development of earth-abundant photocatalyst systems for production of hydrogen from water. In this work, we, for the first time, investigated the photocatalytic activities of complexes formed between β-mecaptoethylamine (L) and Ni(II), NiL2, and the trinuclea...
