Volumes of produced hydrogen were up to 25 and 6 times larger than those obtained with the corresponding free and cucurbit[7]uril-bound platinum monomer, respectively, at equal Pt concentration. The thermodynamics of the proton-coupled electron transfer from the Pt(II)–Pt(II) dimer to the corresponding Pt(II)–Pt(III)–H hydride key intermediate, as quantified by density functional theory, suggest that CB[8] secures the Pt(II)–Pt(II) dimer in a particularly reactive conformation that promotes hydrogen formation. application/pdf eng Royal Society of Chemistry info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/ Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported Enhanced photoreduction of water catalyzed by a cucurbit[8]uril-secured platinum dimer info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlelanding/2021/sc/d1sc03743a SI
