Reconstitution of [Fe]-hydrogenase using model complexes

Xile Hu, Matthew Wodrich, Tao Xu, Dafa Chen

[Fe]-Hydrogenase catalyses the reversible hydrogenation of a methenyltetrahydromethanopterin substrate, which is an intermediate step during the methanogenesis from CO2 and H-2. The active site contains an iron-guanylylpyridinol cofactor, in which Fe2+ is ...

Study of the Redox Properties of Singlet and Triplet Tris(2,2 '-bipyridine)ruthenium(II) ([Ru(bpy)(3)](2+)) in Aqueous Solution by Full Quantum and Mixed Quantum/Classical Molecular Dynamics Simulations

Ursula Röthlisberger, Ivano Tavernelli, Polydefkis Diamantis, Jérôme Florian Gonthier

The oxidation of ground-state (singlet) and triplet Ru(bpy)(3) were studied by full quantum-mechanical (QM) and mixed quantum/classical (QM/MM) molecular dynamics simulations. Both approaches provide reliable results for the redox potentials of the t ...

Hydrogen and Hydrogen Peroxide Formation in Trifluorotoluene-Water Biphasic Systems

Hubert Girault, Jonnathan Cesar Hidalgo Acosta

Hydrogen or hydrogen peroxide can be generated in liquid-liquid biphasic systems, where the organic phase contains sufficiently strong electron donor (whose redox potential is lower than the potential of reversible hydrogen electrode). H2O2 generation with ...
