While hydrogen plays an ever-increasing role in modern society, nature has utilized
hydrogen since a very long time as an energy carrier and storage molecule. Among the …

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 …

Global energy consumption is projected to increase, even in the face of substantial declines
in energy intensity, at least 2-fold by midcentury relative to the present because of …

Conspectus The [FeFe] hydrogenases (H2ases) catalyze the redox reaction that
interconverts protons and H2. This area of biocatalysis has attracted attention because the …

This tutorial review is aimed at chemical scientists interested in understanding and
exploiting the remarkable catalytic behavior of the hydrogenases. The key structural features …

The reversible reduction protons to dihydrogen: 2H++ 2e⇌ H2 is deceptively the simplest of
reactions but one that requires multistep catalysis to proceed at practical rates. How the …

Cobaloximes have been examined as electrocatalysts for proton reduction in nonaqueous
solvent in the presence of triethylammonium chloride.[CoIII (dmgH) 2pyCl], working at …

This article reviews published literature on the electrochemical reduction and oxidation of
complexes containing the Fe2S2 core characteristic of the active site of [FeFe] …

This report compares biomimetic hydrogen evolution reaction catalysts with and without the
amine cofactor (adtNH): Fe2 (adtNH)(CO) 2 (dppv) 2 (1 NH) and Fe2 (pdt)(CO) 2 (dppv) 2 …

Hydrogen, the most abundant element in the Universe, is considered to be an environmental
friendly energy carrier because its combustion generates water. Nowadays, owing to the …
