Abstract

A cobalt-based molecular catalyst was successfully grafted to a fullerene derivative via 'click' chemistry on an electrode for both electro-catalytic and light driven water reduction. Using an organic photovoltaic electrode immobilized with a cobalt catalyst as the photocathode, the photoelectrochemical cell displayed a stable photocurrent.
