A hydrogen oxidation catalyst which is formed of a Dawson-type polyoxometalate compound represented by general formula (I). X a [P 2 M b O 61 Ru c (L) d ] (I) (In the formula, X represents a monovalent cation independently selected from among an alkali metal cation, a tetraalkyl ammonium cation and a tetraalkyl phosphonium cation; M represents a transition metal independently selected from among V, Nb, Mo and W; L represents a ligand independently selected from among H 2 O and an organic ligand, provided that at least one L is H 2 O; a represents the number of cations (X) necessary for neutralizing the electrical charge of the compound as a whole; b represents an integer of 12-17 and c represents an integer of 1-6, provided that the total of b and c is equal to 18; and d represents an integer that is equal to c.) |
