Visible‐light‐driven water oxidation catalysis with a molecular manganese vanadium oxide, [Mn 4 V 4 O 17 (OAc) 3 ] 3− , is reported by C. Streb and co‐workers in their Communication on page 6329 ff. Turnover numbers and turnover frequencies of up to 1150 and 2 s −1 , respectively, were achieved in this process. The cluster is chemically similar to the oxygen‐evolving complex, the photosynthetic water oxidation center in plants.
