The reaction takes place at a specialized metal center that dramatically increases the acidity
of H2 and leads to a heterolytic splitting of the molecule which is strongly accelerated by the …

Over the last 15 years, a plethora of research has provided major insights into the structure
and function of hydrogenase enzymes. This has led to the important development of …

This article sets out to review the chemistry relating to the synthesis of structural and
functional analogues of the three classes of hydrogenases. This chemistry has grown …

The crystal structure of the tetrameric α2β2 acetyl-coenzyme A synthase/carbon monoxide
dehydrogenase from Moorella thermoacetica has been solved at 1.9 Å resolution …

Abstract Reactions involving H2, N2, CO, CO2 and CH4 are likely to have been central to
the origin of life. This is indicated by the active-site structures of the enzymes involved, which …

The recent X-ray crystal structure determinations of several hydrogenase enzymes have
engaged the organometallic community owing to the presence of CN− and CO ligands …

The [NiFe]-hydrogenase model complex NiFe (pdt)(dppe)(CO) 3 (1)(pdt= 1, 3-
propanedithiolate) has been efficiently synthesized and found to be robust. This neutral …

Significant progress has been made in the bioinorganic modeling of the paramagnetic states
believed to be involved in the hydrogen redox chemistry catalyzed by [NiFe] hydrogenase …

In a series of notable manuscripts in the early 1960s, Daryle H. Busch and co-workers
described reactions of coordinated ligands, particularly choosing mercaptoamines (NS) to …
