Photocatalytic H2 production under visible-light irradiation based on covalent attachment of manganese phthalocyanine to graphene

In this paper, a manganese phthalocyanine (MnPc) covalently functionalized graphene nanohybrid (MnPcG) has been successfully synthesized via 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition, and used as a photocatalyst after modifying it with platinum nanoparticles via photodeposition.
