First synthetic steps towards light‐driven hydrogen production have been achieved by covalently linking a [Ru II (terpy) 2 ] (terpy=2,2′:6′,2′′‐terpyridine) photosensitizer to a biomimetic model of the iron hydrogenase active site (see picture). The IR data show that there is little electronic communication between the redox‐active metal centers in the ground state.
