The design of artificial systems that mimic highly evolved and finely tuned natural photosynthetic systems is a subject of intensive research. By incorporating electron‐deficient anthraquinone within the ligand backbone, a redox‐active Ni‐based tetrahedron was developed as a redox vehicle for the co...
