Electrochemical Detection of Transient Cobalt Hydride Intermediates of Electrocatalytic Hydrogen Production.

A large variety of molecular cobalt complexes are used as electrocatalysts for H2 production, but the key cobalt hydride intermediates are frequently difficult to detect and characterize due to their high reactivity. We report that a combination of variable scan rate cyclic voltammetry and foot-of-t...
