title: Synthesis and characterization of hydroxy-functionalized models for the active site in Fe-only-hydrogenases.
abstract: The reactions of DL-1,4-disulfanylbutane-2,3-diol and 1,3-disulfanylpropan-2-ol with dodecacarbonyltriiron have been investigated. As main products, the iron complexes 1 and 2 were isolated and characterized by spectroscopic methods, as well as single crystal X-ray analysis. Additionally, the unusually large bond angles in the dithiolato bridge was investigated via density-functional theory (DFT) calculations. Moreover, the electrochemical features have been studied by cyclic voltammetry.
