Abstract: | NiFe] hydrogenase, the enzyme of which catalyzes the reversible oxidation of molecular hydrogen to protons and electrons, contains a unique heterodinuclear thiolate-bridged Ni-Fe complex in which the iron center is coordinated by CO and CN. We have synthesized dithiolate-bridged Ni-Fe complexes bearing CO and CN ligands to model the active center of NiFe] hydrogenase. The Ni-Fe complexes containing a (CN)2(CO)2Fe(mu-S2)NiS2] framework are the closest yet structural models of NiFe] hydrogenase. |
