TLDR
In this paper, the photocatalytic H2 evolution in the presence of sacrificial electron donors such as tetrahydrofuran, methanol, and ethanol was studied.
Abstract
Irradiation(λ≥290 nm) of an aqueous suspension of ZnS prepared in situ from Na2S and ZnCl2 or ZnSO4 leads to the photocatalytic H2 evolution in the presence of sacrificial electron donors such as tetrahydrofuran, methanol, and ethanol.

Photochemical splitting of water for hydrogen production by photocatalysis: A review

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the research efforts that have been made so far for H2 generation from water splitting by UV and visible light-driven photocatalysis and discuss a number of synthetic modification methods for adapting the electronic structure to enhance the charge separation in the photocatalyst materials.

Mechanism of reactions on colloidal microelectrodes and size quantization effects

TL;DR: In this article, small particles of metals in solution often behave like electrodes although they are not connected to a battery which determines their potential, and when a chemical reaction occurs in the solution of such particles intermediate free radicals may transfer electrons to them.
