A water reduction process performed by zinc metal under very mild conditions.
Water reduction can be electrochemically promoted by zinc under very mild conditions, as demonstrated by the formation of the complex [Zn(H(2)O)(6)][Zn(3)(L)(3)(mu(3)-O)], whose anion consists of a Zn(3)O(4) cluster incorporating a mu(3)-oxo anion.
