The exceptional catalytic efficiency of [FeFe]-hydrogenases has driven intense efforts to reproduce their structure and function in synthetic models. A key structural feature governing the behavior of synthetic H-cluster analogs lies in the identity of the bridging dithiolato ligands that link the iron…
Inspired by the active site of [FeFe]-hydrogenase, we have developed synthetic mimics engineered from the reaction of heteroaryl thioketone derivatives ferrocenyl(5-(4-(diphenylamino)phenyl)thiophen-2-yl)methanethione ( PS-Fc-1 ), ferrocenyl(5′-(4-(diphenylamino)phenyl)-[2,2′-bithiophen]-5-yl)methanethione…

Abstract The reversible addition‐fragmentation chain‐transfer (RAFT) process has become a versatile tool for the preparation of defined polymers tolerating a large variety of functional groups. Several dithioesters, trithiocarbonates, xanthates, or dithiocarbamates have been developed as effective chain…
