A generous donor: A dinuclear octahedral bis(μ-hydrido)dinickel(II) complex (see picture; C gray, H black, N blue, Ni green) acts as an electron donor to reduce electron acceptors such as methyl viologen. The complex is proposed as a functional model for the dihydride intermediate of an NiRu hydrogenase mimic and, by extension, of [NiFe]hydrogenase itself.
by Seiji Ogo's Group: Very relevant to us. Note the presence of two picolinyl groups, not just TPA and not tris(picolinyl)amine. The redox and magnetic properties of this species (high spin?) would be interesting. Note his reference to viologens and his effort to connect to the enzyme.
