Abstract
The model complexes 1– 3 of functionalized azadithiolate (ADT)-bridged Fe-only hydrogenases, [Fe 2(Co) 6(μ-ADT)C 6H 4C CR] [R = C 6H 4NO 2-4 ( 1), C 6H 5 ( 2), C 6H 4OCH 3-4 ( 3)] have been synthesized in high yields under mild conditions by using Sonogashira reaction. Spectroscopic study and X-ray crystal structural analysis of 1 demonstrate that the model complexes retain the butterfly structure of 2Fe2S model analogues. The intermolecular C–H⋯O, C–H⋯π hydrogen bonding and π–π interactions play important roles in molecular packing of 1. In the presence of HOAc, complex 1 features the catalytic electrochemical proton reduction.
