By incorporating a phosphine donor within a thiosemicarbazone moiety to enhance the coordinated ability of the chelators, a cobalt complex Co-NSP (HNSP: 4-[2-(2-diphenylphosphino-benzylidene) thiosemicar-bohydrazone]benzenesulfonate) was obtained as the proton reduction catalyst for light driven H₂ evolution in homogeneous environment with fluorescein as the photosensitizer. The presence of NSP tridentate chelator benefits the formation of low oxidized species to increase the catalytic efficiency, and the incorporation of a sulfonate group enhances the water solubility of the catalyst. The amount of H₂ generation in 12 h photolysis maximizes in the presence of sacrificial reagent NEt₃ at pHvalue of 11.0. The initial TOF (turnover frequency) is about 200 mol H₂ per mole catalyst per hour with the turnover number (TON) about 2000 mol H₂ per mole of catalyst.
