Irradiation of acidic (pH 2) solutions of RuL 3 2+ 2Cl − (L = diisopropyl 2,2′‐bipyridine‐4,4′ ‐dicarboxylate) in the presence of TiO 2 at 100°C leads to the loss of one bipyridyl ligand and the chemical fixation of RuL 2 at the surface of teh TiO 2 particles through formation of Ru‐O‐Ti bonds. These surface complexes are very stable and shift the absorption onset of TiO 2 beyond 600 mm. Efficient sensitization H 2 ‐generation is achieved with this system beginning in the wave length domain between 590 and 665 nm. Preliminary water cleavage experiments with bifunctional TiO 2 /Pt/RuO 2 redox catalyst are reported.
