✦ Synopsis


123

Colloidal CdS was stabilized using a functionalized polymer for electron mediation. The kinetics of electron transfer from colloidal CdS to the electron mediator were studied using laser flash photolysis. In the presence of colloidal platinum, the photoinduced electrons were relayed to the platinum and hydrogen was evolved using a sacrificial electron donor. The efficiency of hydrogen evolution significantly increased when the pendant viologen polymer was used as stabilizing agent.
