Urea Decomposition Mechanism by Dinuclear Nickel Complexes
Urease is an enzyme containing a dinuclear nickel active center responsible for the hydrolysis of urea into carbon dioxide and ammonia. Interestingly, inorganic models of urease are unable to mimic its mechanism despite their similarities to the enzyme active site. The reason behind the discrepancy...
