A dinuclear RuIIPtIIcomplex tethered to a methyl viologen (MV2+) unit {RuPt‐MV2+; [RuII(bpy)2{phen‐bpy(MV2+)}PtIICl2]4+, bpy = 2,2′‐bipyridine, phen = 5‐amino‐1,10‐phenanthroline} has been synthesized to investigate the effect of tethering a single pendant MV2+acceptor on its photo‐hydrogen‐evolving (PHE) activity. Upon photoirradiation of RuPt‐MV2+in the presence of EDTA as a sacrificial electron donor, the one‐electron‐reduced species of RuPt‐MV2+{i.e., [RuII(bpy)2{phen‐bpy(MV+·)}PtIICl2]3+} is generated as a major photoproduct by intramolecular electron transfer (IET) from the3MLCT excited state of the [RuII(bpy)2(phen)]2+unit to the MV2+unit, followed by subsequent reduction of the [RuIII(bpy)2(phen)]3+unit by EDTA. Although RuPt‐MV2+shows PHE activity in the presence of EDTA, the estimated turnover number (0.4) is smaller than that for the parent RuIIPtIIsystem, which has no MV2+tether. The relatively small driving force (0.08 eV) for the IET from the3MLCT excited state of the [RuII(bpy)2(phen)]2+unit to the PtIICl2(bpy) unit, which leads to the H2formation, has been judged to be the major cause of the exceptionally low PHE activity observed for the present system.
