A nanospace coupling effect in a photocatalytic Ru(II)–Pd(II) cage via redox interplay between the confined TTF guest and the photosensitizing host for visible‐light hydrogen‐evolving promotion is described by C.‐Y. Su et al. in their Communication on page 2639. In the confined nanospace of a photocatalytic cage, the TTF guest acts as electron relay mediator to modulate the electron‐transfer process through coupling with photoredox cycle of the cage, leading to significant improvement of hydrogen‐evolving efficiency.
