To prepare a water-soluble catalyst for photocatalytic hydrogen (H-2) evolution, a simple hydrophobic precursor of [FeFe]-H(2)ase mimics, Fe2S2(CO)(6), has been successfully assembled on the surface of CdSe QDs using an interface-directed approach in aqueous/organic solution. The resulting photocatalyst shows the highest efficiency known to date for H-2 evolution with a turnover number (TON) of 8781 vs. Fe2S2(CO)(6) and an initial turnover frequency (TOF) of 596 h(-1) under visible light irradiation in water.
