title: Design of BODIPY Dyes as Photosensitisers in Multicomponent Catalyst Systems for Light-Driven Hydrogen Production.
abstract: A study of visible-light-driven hydrogen production using a multicomponent system consisting of different boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) dyes, triethylamine and [{Pd(PPh3)Cl2}2] from THF/water mixtures is presented. A trio of meso-mesityl BODIPY dyes display the best activities and long-term stabilities of more than ten days with the 2,6-diiodo derivative showing the best performance.
