Hydrogen Production Catalyzed by Bidirectional, Biomimetic Models of the [FeFe]-Hydrogenase Active Site

Abstract: Active site mimics of [FeFe]-hydrogenase are shown to be bidirectional catalysts, producing H2 upon treatment with protons and reducing equivalents. This reactivity complements the previously reported oxidation of H2 by these same catalysts in the presence of oxidants. The complex Fe2(adtBn)(CO)3(dppv)(PFc*Et2) ([1]0; adtBn = (SCH2)2NBn, dppv = cis-1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethylene, PFc*Et2 = Et2PCH2C5Me4FeCp*) reacts with excess [H(OEt2)2]BArF4 (BArF4– = B(C6H3-3,5-(CF3)2)4–) to give ∼0.5 equiv of H2 and [Fe… Show more

“…Hydrogenases, metalloenzymes that utilize iron, diiron or iron–nickel as metallic components, are able to perform reversible proton reduction at ambient temperature and pressure with activities, efficiencies, and overpotentials that are comparable to platinum . It is thus not surprising that chemists take inspiration from nature to mimic the active site of these metalloenzymes to develop new classes of proton reduction catalysts . Although several hundreds of hydrogenase model systems have been reported to date, most have been studied as homogeneous catalysts in organic solvents .…”

“…[32] A later application of a ferrocenylphosphine as an electron source/sink allowed for the first example of H 2 oxidation catalyzed by a [FeFe]-H 2 ase model. [35,36] The conversion was mediated by a triiron complex [ c ] 2+ (Fig. 2) featuring both a H + relay (the amino group poised near the pyramidal Fe centre for substrate transfer) as well as a diethylphosphinomethyl(nonamethylferrocene) redox-active ligand.…”
