利用阳光和水制氢是解决因化石燃料消耗引起的环境问题并满足日益增长的全球能源需求的一种有前途的解决方案。基于过渡金属配合物的催化剂已被广泛研究用于电催化和光催化制氢。在已报道的催化剂中，分子钴配合物在过去几年中在制氢方面受到了特别关注。在这篇综述中，讨论了由五齿配体钴配合物催化的水溶液中电催化和光催化制氢的最新进展，重点讨论了我们实验室开发的那些进展。还讨论了钴配合物制氢的机理研究以及未来方向。
Hydrogen production from sunlight and water represents one promising solution to resolve the environmental problems caused by the consumption of fossil fuels and to meet the increasing global energy demands. Catalysts based on transition metal complexes have been extensively studied for electro‐ and photocatalytic production of hydrogen. Among the reported catalysts, molecular cobalt complexes have received special attention for hydrogen production over the past years. In this review, the recent progresses for electro‐ and photocatalytic production of hydrogen in aqueous solutions catalyzed by Co complexes with pentadentate ligands, with an emphasis of those developed in our lab, are discussed. Mechanistic investigations as well as future directions for hydrogen production by Co complexes are also discussed.
