Electrochemical and theoretical investigations of the reduction of [Fe-2(CO)(5)L{mu-SCH2XCH2S}] complexes related to [FeFe] hydrogenase

The complexes [Fe2(CO)6{μ-SCH2N(R) CH2S}] (R = CH2CH2OCH3, 1a; R = iPr, 1b) and [Fe2(CO)6(μ-pdt)] 2 (pdt = S(CH2)3S) are structural analogues of the [2Fe] H subsite of [FeFe]H2ases. Electrochemical investigation of 1 and 2 in MeCN-[NBu4][PF6] under Ar and under CO has demonstrated that the reduction...
