Reevaluating Hydrated RuCl₃ as a Co-Catalyst for Photocatalytic Water Splitting

Abstract: Hydrated ruthenium(III) chloride is a common yet underappreciated chemical in catalysis. We compare anhydrous vs hydrated RuCl₃ in structure and reactivity, discuss selection and handling in coordination chemistry, and explore its role as a co-catalyst in dye-sensitized photocatalytic water splitting (e.g., Eosin Y systems). We hypothesize tha…
