WS 2 , which is composed of cheap and earth‐abundant elements, catalyzes the hydrogen‐evolution reaction efficiently using the organic electron‐donor decamethylferrocene. This catalytic activity has been investigated at liquid–liquid interfaces (water–1,2‐dichloroethane) by voltammetry and biphasic reactions observed by UV/Vis spectroscopy and GC.
