Abstract

Water splitting is one of the most fundamental chemical reactions performed by natural photosynthetic organisms and the basis to exploit water for the production of elemental hydrogen as an alternative energy source. In article number 1602939, Roland Mitrić, Frank Würthner, and co-workers summarize recent advances in the field of supramolecular water oxidation catalysis, highlighting a particularly promising approach to lower activation barriers of proton coupled reaction steps by pre-organizing water molecules inside metallosupramolecular cavities.
