Abstract
Have you ever imagined reactions of alkenes with hydrogen that result in anything other than hydrogenation or hydrogenative C-C coupling? We have long sought to develop not only hydrogenation catalysts that activate H2 as hydride ions but also electron transfer catalysts that activate H2 as a direct electron donor. Here, we report the reductive cyclopropanation of alkenes using an iridium electron storage catalyst with H2 as the electron source without releasing metal waste from the reductant. We discuss the catalytic mechanism with selectivity to give the trans-isomer. These findings are based on the isolation of three complexes and density functional theory calculations.

Abstract
Catalytic function in organometallic complexes is achieved by carefully selecting their central metals and ligands. In this study, the effects of a metal and a ligand on the kinetics and thermodynamics of hydrogen activation, hydricity degree of the hydride complex, and susceptibility to electronic oxidation in bioinspired NiFe complexes, [NiIIX FeII(Cl)(CO)Y]+ ([NiFe(Cl)(CO)]+; X = N,N'-diethyl-3,7-diazanonane-1,9-dithiolato and Y = 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane), were investigated. The density functional theory calculations revealed that the following order thermodynamically favored hydrogen activation: [NiFe(CO)]2+ > [NiRu(CO)]2+ > [NiFe(CNMe)]2+ ∼ [PdRu(CO)]2+ ∼ [PdFe(CO)]2+ ≫ [NiFe(NCS)]+. Moreover, the reverse order thermodynamically favored the hydricity degree.

Abstract
Hydrogen fuel is a promising alternative to fossil fuel. Therefore, efficient hydrogen production is crucial to elucidate the distinctive reactivities of metal hydride species, the intermediates formed during hydrogen activation/evolution in the presence of organometallic catalysts. This study uses density functional theory (DFT) to investigate the isomerizations and reactivities of three nickel-iron (NiFe) hydride isomers synthesized by mimicking the active center of NiFe hydrogenase. Hydride transfer within these complexes, rather than a chemical reaction between the complexes, converts the three hydrides internally. Their reactivities, including their electron-transfer, hydride-transfer and proton-transfer reactions, are investigated. The bridging hydride complex exhibits a higher energy level for the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) than the terminal hydride during the electron-transfer reaction. This energy level indicates that the bridging hydride is more easily oxidized and is more susceptible to electron transfer than the terminal hydride. Regarding the hydride-transfer reaction between the NiFe hydride complex and methylene blue, the terminal hydrides exhibit larger hydricity and lower reaction barriers than the bridging hydride complexes. The results of energy decomposition analysis indicate that the structural deformation energy of the terminal hydride in the transition state is smaller than that of the bridging hydride complex, which lowers the reaction barrier of hydride transfer in the terminal hydride. To produce hydrogen, the rate-determining step is represented by the protonation of the hydride, and the terminal hydrides are thermodynamically and kinetically superior to the bridging ones. The differences in the reactivities of the hydride isomers ensure the precise control of hydrogen, and the theoretical calculations can be applied to design catalysts for hydrogen activation/production.

Abstract
Hydrogen is a clean fuel alternative to fossil fuels, and it is vital to develop catalysts for its efficient activation and production. We investigate the reaction mechanism of H2 activation in an aqueous solution by the recently developed NiFe complex (Ogo et al. Sci. Adv. 2020, 6, eaaz8181) using density functional theory (DFT) calculation. Our computational results showed that H2 is activated using frustrated Lewis pair. That is, H2 binds to the Fe site of the NiFe complex, acting as a Lewis acid, while the added buffer, acting as Lewis base, abstracts protons to form a hydride complex. Furthermore, the higher basicity in the proton abstraction reaction characterises reaction more exergonic and lowers the reaction barrier. In addition, in the proton abstraction by the water molecule, the reaction barrier was lowered when anion such as Cl− is in the vicinity of the water. Understanding the chemical species that contribute to the catalytic process in cooperation with the metal catalyst at the atomic level should help to maximise the function of the catalyst. Hydrogen is a clean fuel alternative to fossil fuels, and it is vital to develop catalysts for its efficient activation and production.![]()

Abstract
Triethanolamine (TEOA) has been used for the photocatalytic reduction of CO2, and the experimental studies have demonstrated that the TEOA increases the catalytic efficiency. In addition, the formation of a carbonate complex has been confirmed in the Re photocatalytic system where DMF and TEOA are used as solvents. In this study, we survey the reaction pathways of the photocatalytic conversions of CO2 to CO + H2O and CO2 to CO + HCO3− by fac-Re(bpy)(CO)3Br in the presence of TEOA using density functional theory (DFT) and domain-based local pair natural orbital coupled cluster approach, DLPNO-CCSD(T). Under light irradiation, the solvent-coordinated Re complex is first reduced to form a monoalkyl carbonate complex in the doublet pathway. This doublet pathway is kinetically advantageous over the singlet pathway. To reduce carbon dioxide, the Re complex needs to be reduced by two electrons. The second electron reduction occurs after the monoalkyl carbonate complex is protonated. The second reduction involves the dissociation of the monoalkyl carbonate ligand, and the dissociated ligand recombines the Re center via carbon to generate Re–COOH species, which further reacts with CO2 to generate tetracarbonyl complex and HCO3−. The two-electron reduced ligand-free Re complex converts CO2 to CO and H2O. The pathways leading to H2O formation have lower barriers than the pathways leading to HCO3− formation, but their portion of formation must depend on proton concentration. DFT and DLPNO-CCSD(T) calculations proposed a pathway for the conversion of the experimentally detected monoarkyl carbonate complex to tetracarbonyl complex.![]()

Abstract
The study of hydrogenase enzymes (H2ases) is necessary because of their importance to a future hydrogen energy economy. These enzymes come in three distinct classes: [NiFe] H2ases, which have a propensity toward H2 oxidation; [FeFe] H2ases, which have a propensity toward H2 evolution; and [Fe] H2ases, which catalyze H- transfer. Modeling these enzymes has so far treated them as different species, which is understandable given the different cores and ligand sets of the natural molecules. Here, we demonstrate, using x-ray analysis and nuclear magnetic resonance, infrared, Mössbauer spectroscopies, and electrochemical measurement, that the catalytic properties of all three enzymes can be mimicked with only three isomers of the same NiFe complex.

Abstract
One of the challenges in utilizing hydrogen gas (H2) as a sustainable fossil fuel alternative is the inhibition of H2 oxidation by carbon monoxide (CO), which is involved in the industrial production of H2 sources. To solve this problem, a catalyst that selectively oxidizes either CO or H2 or one that co-oxidizes H2 and CO is needed. Recently, a NiIr catalyst [NiIICl(X)IrIIICl(η5-C5Me5)], (X = N,N'-dimethyl-3,7-diazanonane-1,9-dithiolate), which efficiently and selectively oxidizes either H2 or CO depending on the pH, has been developed (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2017, 56, 9723-9726). In the present work, density functional theory (DFT) calculations are employed to elucidate the pH-dependent reaction mechanisms of H2 and CO oxidation catalyzed by this NiIr catalyst. During H2 oxidation, our calculations suggest that dihydrogen binds to the Ir center and generates an Ir(III)-dihydrogen complex, followed by subsequent isomerization to an Ir(V)-dihydride species. Then, a proton is abstracted by a buffer base, CH3COO-, resulting in the formation of a hydride complex. The catalytic cycle completes with electron transfer from the hydride complex to a protonated 2,6-dichlorobenzeneindophenol (DCIP) and a proton transfer from the oxidized hydride complex to a buffer base. The CO oxidation mechanism involves three distinct steps, i.e., (1) formation of a metal carbonyl complex, (2) formation of a metallocarboxylic acid, and (3) conversion of the metallocarboxylic acid to a hydride complex. The formation of the metallocarboxylic acid involves nucleophilic attack of OH- to the carbonyl-C followed by a large structural change with concomitant cleavage of the Ir-S bond and rotation of the COOH group along the NiIr axis. During the conversion of the metallocarboxylic acid to the hydride complex, intramolecular proton transfer followed by removal of CO2 leads to the formation of the hydride complexes. In addition, the barrier heights for the binding of small molecules (H2, OH-, H2O, and CO) to Ir were calculated, and the results indicated that dissociation from Ir is a faster process than the binding of H2O and H2. These calculations indicate that H2 oxidation is inhibited by CO and OH- and thus prefers acidic conditions. In contrast, the CO oxidation reactions occur more favorably under basic conditions, as the formation of the metallocarboxylic acid involves OH- attack to a carbonyl-C and the binding of OH- to Ni largely stabilizes the triplet spin state of the complex. Taken together, these calculations provide a rationale for the experimentally observed pH-dependent, selective oxidations of H2 and CO.

Abstract
The co-decomposition of non-noble metals into Ru nanoparticles (NPs) would provide multiple active centers as well as synergistically alter the reaction pathway, enhancing the catalytic hydrogenation performance. Herein, a facile route for synthesizing trielement Ru-Ni-Fe alloy NPs was proposed. The catalytic hydrogenation performance of NPs was measured using p-nitrophenol as a model. The synergistic effect of these three elements (Ru, Ni, and Fe) and synergistic catalysis of multiple crystal faces greatly improved the catalytic hydrogenation performance of Ru44Ni28Fe28 alloy NPs. Ru with more vacant orbitals showed a strong coordination with BH4- for the generation of active H species. Ni played a major role in transporting electrons and active H species, increasing the accessibility of catalytically active sites. Fe could cooperate with BH4- to produce active H species and promote electrons transfer. Ru44Ni28Fe28 alloy NPs could be reused and applied for the fabrication of films at the oil-water (ethyl acetate-water) interface. The densely packed Ru44Ni28Fe28 NP films were good Raman substrates for monitoring the complete conversion of 4-nitrothiophenol into 4-aminothiophenol. The rational design of Ru44Ni28Fe28 will broaden the application range of Ru-based catalysts and provide new insights into the rational design of other multisite alloy catalysts.
