title: An organometallic dithiolene complex exhibiting electrochemically initiated hydrogen generation.
abstract: We clarify the electrochemical behavior of an organometallic cobalt dithiolene complex (1-NH) with a secondary sulfonyl amide (–NHSO(2)–) substituted Cp ligand involving proton dynamics. The reductions of 1-NH and its deprotonated derivative (1-N(−)) are centered on the CpCoS(2) moiety. The 2e(−) reduction of 1-NH quantitatively gives 1-N(−) with hydrogen generation.
