A robust cobalt‐based PN 3 P‐pincer molecular complex is introduced that serves as an efficient bifunctional electrocatalyst for electrochemical water splitting. This water‐soluble, electron‐deficient cobalt PN 3 P‐pincer complex demonstrates impressive catalytic activity for both the oxygen evoluti...
