Abstract
Reaction of the nitrosylated-iron metallodithiolate ligand, paramagnetic (NO)Fe(N2S2), with [M(CH3CN)n][BF4]2 salts (M = NiII, PdII, and PtII; n = 4 or 6) affords di-radical tri-metallic complexes in a stairstep type arrangement ([FeMFe]2+, M = Ni, Pd, and Pt), with the central group 10 metal held in a MS4 square plane. These isostructural compounds have nearly identical ν(NO) stretching values, isomer shifts, and electrochemical properties, but vary in their magnetic properties. Despite the intramolecular Fe⋯Fe distances of ca. 6 Å, antiferromagnetic coupling is observed between {Fe(NO)}7 units as established by magnetic susceptibility, EPR, and DFT studies. The superexchange interaction through the thiolate sulfur and central metal atoms is on the order of NiII < PdII ≪ PtII with exchange coupling constants (J) of -3, -23, and -124 cm-1, consistent with increased covalency of the M-S bonds (3d < 4d < 5d). This trend is reproduced by DFT calculations with molecular orbital analysis providing insight into the origin of the enhancement in the exchange interaction. Specifically, the magnitude of the exchange interaction correlates surprisingly well with the energy difference between the HOMO and HOMO-1 orbitals of the triplet states, which is reflected in the central metal's contribution to these orbitals. These results demonstrate the ability of sulfur-dense metallodithiolate ligands to engender strong magnetic communication by virtue of their enhanced covalency and polarizability.

Abstract
Activation and reduction of N2 have been a major challenge to chemists and the focus since now has mostly been on the synthesis of NH3. Alternatively, reduction of N2 to hydrazine is desirable because hydrazine is an excellent energy vector that can release the stored energy very conveniently without the need for catalysts. To date, only one molecular catalyst has been reported to be able to reduce N2 to hydrazine chemically. A trinuclear T-shaped nickel thiolate molecular complex has been designed to activate dinitrogen. The electrochemically generated all Ni(I) state of this molecule can reduce N2 in the presence of PhOH as a proton donor. Hydrazine is detected as the only nitrogen-containing product of the reaction, along with gaseous H2. The complex reported here is selective for the 4e-/4H+ reduction of nitrogen to hydrazine with a minor overpotential of ∼300 mV.

Abstract
Imidazolate-containing {Fe(NO)(2)}(9) molecular squares have been synthesized by oxidative CO displacement from the reduced Fe(CO)(2)(NO)(2) precursor. The structures of complex 1 [(imidazole)Fe(NO)(2)](4), (Ford, Li, et al.; Chem. Commun.2005, 477-479), 2 [(2-isopropylimidazole)Fe(NO)(2)](4), and 3 [(benzimidazole)Fe(NO)(2)](4), as determined by X-ray diffraction analysis, find precise square planes of irons with imidazolates bridging the edges and nitrosyl ligands capping the irons at the corners. The orientation of the imidazolate ligands in each of the complexes results in variations of the overall structures, and molecular recognition features in the available cavities of 1 and 3. Computational studies show multiple low energy structural isomers and confirm that the isomers found in the crystallographic structures arise from intermolecular interactions. EPR and IR spectroscopic studies and electrochemical results suggest that the tetramers remain intact in solution in the presence of weakly coordinating (THF) and noncoordinating (CH(2)Cl(2)) solvents. Mössbauer spectroscopic data for a set of reference dinitrosyl iron complexes, reduced {Fe(NO)(2)}(10) compounds A ((NHC-iPr)(2)Fe(NO)(2)), and C ((NHC-iPr)(CO)Fe(NO)(2)), and oxidized {Fe(NO)(2)}(9) compounds B ([(NHC-iPr)(2)Fe(NO)(2)][BF(4)]), and D ((NHC-iPr)(SPh)Fe(NO)(2)) (NHC-iPr = 1,3-diisopropylimidazol-2-ylidene) demonstrate distinct differences of the isomer shifts and quadrupole splittings between the oxidized and reduced forms. The reduced compounds have smaller positive isomer shifts as compared to the oxidized compounds ascribed to the greater π-backbonding to the NO ligands. Mössbauer data for the tetrameric complexes 1-3 demonstrate larger isomer shifts, most comparable to compound D; all four complexes contain cationic {Fe(NO)(2)}(9) units bound to one anionic ligand and one neutral ligand. At room temperature, the paramagnetic, S = (1)/(2) per iron, centers are not coupled.

Abstract
The new dinuclear nickel-ruthenium complexes [Ni(xbsms)RuCp(L)][PF(6)] (H(2)xbsms = 1,2-bis(4-mercapto-3,3-dimethyl-2-thiabutyl)benzene; Cp(-) = cyclopentadienyl; L = DMSO, CO, PPh(3), and PCy(3)) are reported and are bioinspired mimics of NiFe hydrogenases. These compounds were characterized by X-ray diffraction techniques and display novel structural motifs. Interestingly, [Ni(xbsms)RuCpCO][PF(6)] is stereochemically nonrigid in solution and an isomerization mechanism was derived with the help of density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Because of an increased electron density on the metal centers [Eur. J. Inorg. Chem. 2007, 18, 2613-2626] with respect to the previously described [Ni(xbsms)Ru(CO)(2)Cl(2)] and [Ni(xbsms)Ru(p-cymene)Cl](+) complexes, [Ni(xbsms)RuCp(dmso)][PF(6)] catalyzes hydrogen evolution from Et(3)NH(+) in DMF with an overpotential reduced by 180 mV and thus represents the most efficient NiFe hydrogenase functional mimic. DFT calculations were carried out with several methods to investigate the catalytic cycle and, coupled with electrochemical measurements, allowed a mechanism to be proposed. A terminal or bridging hydride derivative was identified as the active intermediate, with the structure of the bridging form similar to that of the Ni-C active state of NiFe hydrogenases.

Abstract
Novel Schiff base Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II) and Zn(II) complexes have been designed and synthesized using the macrocyclic ligand derived from the condensation of diethylphthalate with Schiff base, obtained from benzene-1,2-diamine and 3-benzylidene-pentane-2,4-dione. The ligand and its complexes have been characterized by analytical and spectral techniques. DNA binding properties of these complexes have been investigated by UV-vis, viscosity measurements, cyclic voltammetric and differential pulse voltammogram studies. The intrinsic binding constants for Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes are 1.6x10(6), 1.8x10(6), 2.0x10(6) and 1.5x10(6) M(-1) respectively which are obtained from electronic absorption experiment. Control DNA cleavage experiments using pUC19 supercoiled (SC) DNA and minor groove binder (distamycin) suggest the major groove binding tendency for the synthesized complexes. In the presence of a reducing agent like 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA), the synthesized complexes show chemical nuclease activity under dark reaction condition. The complexes also show efficient photo-induced DNA cleavage activity on irradiation with a monochromatic UV light of 360 nm in the presence of inhibitors. Control experiments show inhibition of cleavage in the presence of singlet oxygen quencher like sodium azide and enhancement of cleavage in D(2)O, suggesting the formation of singlet oxygen as a reactive species in a type-II process.

Abstract
A dithiolate-bridged Fe-Ni-Fe trinuclear carbonyl complex [(CO)(3)Fe(mu-ndt)Ni(mu-ndt)Fe(CO)(3)] (1, ndt = norbornane-exo-2,3-dithiolate) has been synthesized from the reaction of [Fe(CO)(4)I(2)] and Li(2)[Ni(ndt)(2)]. This reaction was found to occur with concomitant formation of a tetranuclear cluster [Ni(3)(mu-ndt)(4)FeI] (2). Treatment of 1 with Na[N(SiMe(3))(2)] transforms some of the CO ligands into CN(-), and the monocyanide complex (PPh(4))[(CO)(2)(CN)Fe(mu-ndt)Ni(mu-ndt)Fe(CO)(3)] (3) and the dicyanide complex (PPh(4))(2)[(CO)(2)(CN)Fe(mu-ndt)Ni(mu-ndt)Fe(CO)(2)(CN)] (4) were isolated. X-ray structural analyses of the trinuclear complexes revealed a Fe-Ni-Fe array in which the metal centers are connected by the ndt sulfur bridges and direct Fe-Ni bonds. Hydrogen bonding between the CN ligand in 3 and cocrystallized ethanol was found in the solid-state structure. The monocyanide complex 3 and dicyanide complex 4 reacted with acids such as HOTf or HCl generating insoluble materials, whereas complex 1 did not react.

Abstract
Dimeric (N(2)S)Ni complexes and the monomeric N(2)S(2) bismercaptodiazacycloheptane nickel complex, (bme-dach)Ni, serve as precursors to two N(2)-, N'-/ S- complexes where N(2) = diazacycloheptane, N' = imidazole and S = thiolate. As rare examples of nickel complexes containing a mixed thiolate/imidazole ligand set, these complexes are characterized by X-ray diffraction, UV/vis, and variable temperature (1)H NMR spectroscopies, and electrochemistry. Density functional theory computations relate the orientation of the imidazole with respect to the N(2)N'SNi square plane to the VT NMR observed fluxionality and activation parameters. The superoxide dismutase activity of the imidazole complexes was investigated by the nitroblue tetrazolium assay.

Abstract
Two metallosynthons, namely (Et4N)2[Ni(NpPepS)] (1) and (Et4N)2[Ni(PhPepS)] (2) containing carboxamido-N and thiolato-S as donors have been used to model the bimetallic M(p)-Ni(d) subsite of the A-cluster of the enzyme acetyl coenzyme A synthase/CO dehydrogenase. A series of sulfur-bridged Ni/Cu dinuclear and trinuclear complexes (3-10) have been synthesized to explore their redox properties and affinity of the metal centers toward CO. The structures of (Et4N)2[Ni(PhPepS)] (2), (Et4N)[Cu(neo)Ni(NpPepS)] x 0.5 Et2O x 0.5 H2O (3 x 0.5 Et2O x 0.5 H2O), (Et4N)[Cu(neo)Ni(PhPepS)] x H2O (4 x H2O), (Et4N)2[Ni{Ni(NpPepS)}2] x DMF (5 x DMF), (Et4N)2[Ni(DMF)2{Ni(NpPepS)}2] x 3 DMF (6 x 3 DMF), (Et4N)2[Ni(DMF)2{Ni(PhPepS)}2] (8), and [Ni(dppe)Ni(PhPepS)] x CH2Cl2 (10 x CH2Cl2) have been determined by crystallography. The Ni(d) mimics 1 and 2 resist reduction and exhibit no affinity toward CO. In contrast, the sulfur-bridged Ni center (designated Ni(C)) in the trinuclear models 5-8 are amenable to reduction and binds CO in the Ni(I) state. Also, the sulfur-bridged Ni(C) center can be removed from the trimers (5-8) by treatment with 1,10-phenanthroline much like the "labile Ni" from the enzyme. The dinuclear Ni-Ni models 9 and 10 resemble the Ni(p)-Ni(d) subsite of the A-cluster more closely, and only the modeled Ni(p) site of the dimers can be reduced. The Ni(I)-Ni(II) species display EPR spectra typical of a Ni(I) center in distorted trigonal bipyramidal and distorted tetrahedral geometries for 9(red) and 10(red), respectively. Both species bind CO, and the CO-adducts 9(red)-CO and 10(red)-CO display strong nu(co) at 2044 and 1997 cm(-1), respectively. The reduction of 10 is reversible. The CO-affinity of 10 in the reduced state and the nu(co) value of 10(red)-CO closely resemble the CO-bound reduced A-cluster (nu(co) = 1996 cm(-1)).

The thioethers (4-tert-butyl-2,6-bis((2-(diphenylphosphino)ethylimino)methyl)phenyl)(tert-butyl)sulfane (tBuL3) and (4-tert-butyl-2,6-bis((2-(diphenylphosphino)ethylamino)methyl)phenyl)(tert-butyl)sulfane (tBuL4) react readily with [Pd(NCMe)2Cl2] to give the dinuclear palladium thiophenolate complexes [(L3)Pd2(Cl)2]+ and [(L4)Pd2(micro-Cl)]2+ (HL3=2,6-bis((2-(diphenylphosphino)ethylimino)methyl)-4-tert-butylbenzenethiol, HL4=2,6-bis((2-(diphenylphosphino)ethylamino)methyl)-4-tert-butylbenzenethiol). The chlorides in could be replaced by neutral (MeCN) and anionic ligands (NCS-, N3-, I-, CN-) to give the dinuclear PdII complexes [(L3)Pd2(NCMe)2]3+, [(L3)Pd2(SCN)2]+, [(L3)Pd2(N3)2]+, [(L3)Pd2(I)2]+, and [(L3)Pd2(CN)2]+. The acetonitrile ligands in are readily hydrated to give the corresponding amidato complex [(L3)Pd2(NHCOMe)]2+. All complexes were isolated as perchlorate salts and studied by infrared, 1H, and 31P NMR spectroscopy. In addition, complexes [ClO4].EtOH, [ClO4]2, [ClO4], [ClO4].EtOH, and [ClO4]2.MeCN.MeOH have been characterized by X-ray crystallography. The dipalladium complex was found to catalyse the vinyl-addition polymerization of norbornene in the presence of MAO (methylalumoxane) and B(C6F5)3/AlEt3.

Abstract
1,3-dithia-2-stannacyclopentane derivatives with dialkyldithiocarbamates of the types SCH(2)CH(2)SSn[S(2)CNR(2)]Cl (I) and SCH(2)CH(2)SSn[S(2)CNR(2)](2) (II) (where R = CH(3), C(2)H(5) and -CH(2)-CH(2)-) have been synthesized by the reaction of 2,2-dichloro-1,3-dithia-2-stannacyclopentane and sodium/ammonium salts of dialkyldithiocarbamates in 1:1 and 1:2 molar ratios, respectively, in anhydrous benzene. These newly synthesized derivatives have been characterized by elemental analyses (C, H, N, S and Sn), thermal [thermogravimetry (TG) and differential thermal analyses (DTA)] as well as spectral [UV, IR and multinuclear NMR ((1)H, (13)C and (119)Sn)] studies. The monodentate behaviour of the dialkyldithiocarbamate ligands was confirmed by IR and (119)Sn NMR spectral data and distorted tetrahedral structures have been suggested for both type (I) and (II) compounds. The free ligands and their tin complexes have also been screened for their antibacterial and antifungal activities. These results made it desirable to delineate a comparison between free ligands and their tin complexes. These exhibit higher antibacterial effect than some of the previously investigated antibiotics.

Abstract
While a solution of TpPh,MeZn-OH in methanol contains only traces of TpPh,MeZn-OMe, according to the equilibrium constant K = 5.8 x 10(-4), the reactions of TpPh,MeZn-OH with the electronegative alcohols trifluoroethanol and hexafluoro-2-propanol easily yield TpPh,MeZn-OCH2CF3 and TpPh,MeZn-OCH(CF3)2. The extremely hydrolytically sensitive TpPh,MeZn-OR complexes, with R = Me, Et, i-Pr, and CH2CH2F, as well as TpCum,MeZn-OR, with R = Me and i-Pr, are accessible from the Tp*Zn-hydride complexes and the corresponding alcohol. Alkylations with methyl iodide have revealed the high nucleophilicity of TpPh,MeZn-OMe by conversion to dimethyl ether and TpPh,MeZn-I. This conversion occurs rapidly not only with pure TpPh,MeZn-OMe but also with TpPh,MeZn-OH (as such or in the presence of methanol) and with TpPh,MeZn-OCOOMe. A relation of the Tp*Zn-alkoxides to the function of the zinc enzyme alcoholdehydrogenase exists in the reaction of TpPh,MeZn-OCH(CH3)2 with aromatic aldehydes, which yields acetone and the corresponding benzyl oxides TpPh,MeZn-OH2Ar. The heterocumulenes carbon dioxide, carbon disulfide, isothiocyanates, and one isocyanate are inserted into the Zn-OR bonds, yielding one alkyl carbonate complex (TpPh,MeZn-OC(O)OMe), two xanthogenate complexes (TpPh,MeZn-SC(S)OR), three iminothiocarbonate complexes (TpPh,MeZn-SC(NR')OR), and one alkyl carbamate complex (TpPh,MeZn-NR-COOMe). All insertion reactions can be described by a common mechanism involving a four-center intermediate in which the most basic heteroatom of the heterocumulene is attached to zinc.

Abstract
The N2S2 ligand, bis-mercaptoethanediazacyclooctane, coordinates to Pb(II) largely through sulfur donors, enlisting a second unit to fulfill an irregular, hemispherical N2S3 coordination environment in which a void suggests the location of a stereochemically active lone pair on Pb(II). That the highly exposed lead is vulnerable to metal ion displacement is demonstrated on reaction with zinc which results in a regular square pyramidal coordination about zinc within a [N2S2Zn]2 dimer. Analysis of the two dimeric structures finds different connectivities of the monomeric subunits account for the stability of the zinc structure over that of the lead.

Abstract
Sulfur bridging interactions between three cis-planar NiII-S2N2 complexes and NiII, CuI,II, ZnII, and HgII reactants were investigated by synthesis and X-ray crystal structures of some 24 complexes. This work was stimulated by recent crystallographic structures of the A-cluster of carbon monoxide dehydrogenase/acetylcoenzyme A synthase. This bridged biological assembly has the minimal formulation [Fe4S4]-(micro2-SCys)-[M((micro2-SCys)2Gly)Ni] with M = NiII, CuI, and ZnII at sites distal and proximal, respectively, to the iron-sulfur cluster. Bridges supported by representations of the distal nickel site were sought by reactions of the complexes [NiII(LH-S2N2)]2- and [NiII(LR-S2N2)], with 5-5-5 chelate ring patterns. Reaction products implicate the bridges Ni-(micro2-S)1,2-M in a variety of molecular structures, some with previously unknown connectivities of bridge atoms. The most frequently encountered bridge units are the nonplanar rhombs Ni(2-S)2M involving both sulfur atoms of a given complex. Those with M = NiII are biologically relevant inasmuch as the catalytic metal at the proximal site is nickel. The complex [Ni(L-655)]2-, containing the 6-5-5 ring pattern and coordination sphere of the distal nickel site, was prepared and structurally characterized. It was shown to sustain Ni2(micro2-S)2 rhombic interactions in the form of trinuclear [[Ni(L-655)]2Ni]2- and [[Ni(L-655)]Ni(R2PCH2CH2PR2)] (R = Et, Ph) in which the second NiII simulates the proximal site. Bridging interactions of NiII-S2N2 complexes are summarized, and geometrical features of Ni2(2-S)2 rhombs in these complexes, as dependent on ring patterns, are considered (LH-S2N2 = N,N'-ethylenebis(2-mercaptoisobutyramide)(4-); LR-S2N2 = trans-rac-N,N'-bis(2-mercapto-2-methylprop-1-yl)-1,2-cyclohexanediamine(2-); L-655 = N-(2-mercaptopropyl)-N'-(2'-mercaptoethyl)glycinamide(4-)).

Abstract
Acetyl-CoA synthase (also known as carbon monoxide dehydrogenase) is a bifunctional Ni-Fe-S-containing enzyme that catalyzes the reversible reduction of CO(2) to CO and the synthesis of acetyl-coenzyme A from CO, CoA, and a methyl group donated by a corrinoid iron-sulfur protein. The active site for the latter reaction, called the A-cluster, consists of an Fe(4)S(4) cubane bridged to the proximal Ni site (Ni(p)), which is bridged in turn to the so-called distal Ni site. In this review, evidence is presented that Ni(p) achieves a zero-valent state at low potentials and during catalysis. Ni(p) appears to be the metal to which CO and methyl groups bind and then react to form an acetyl-Ni(p) intermediate. Methyl group binding requires reductive activation, where two electrons reduce some site on the A-cluster. The coordination environment of the distal Ni suggests that it could not be stabilized in redox states lower than 2+. The rate at which the [Fe(4)S(4)](2+) cubane is reduced is far slower than that at which reductive activation occurs, suggesting that the cubane is not the site of reduction. An intriguing possibility is that Ni(p)(2+) might be reduced to the zero-valent state. Reinforcing this idea are Ni-organometallic complexes in which the Ni exhibits analogous reactivity properties when reduced to the zero-valent state. A zero-valent Ni stabilized exclusively with biological ligands would be remarkable and unprecedented in biology.

Abstract
Acetyl coenzyme A synthase (ACS) acts in concert with carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH) to catalyze the formation of acetyl-coenzyme A from CO(2)-derived CO and CH(3)(+) molecules. Recent crystal structures have shown that the three globular domains constituting the ACS subunit may be arranged in either a closed or an open conformation. A long hydrophobic tunnel network allows diffusion of CO between the CODH and the ACS active sites in the closed form, but it is blocked in the open form. On the other hand, the active site of ACS is only accessible for coenzyme A and the methyl donating protein in the open domain conformation. Although several metal compositions have been observed for this active site, present consensus is that it consists of a Ni-Ni-[Fe(4)S(4)] cluster. The observed conformational changes of ACS and the resulting different substrate accessibilities of the catalytic central nickel are reviewed here in the context of a putative CO(2)/CO tunnel gating mechanism.

Abstract
For the last two decades, the bifunctional enzyme acetyl-coenzyme A synthase/carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (ACS/CODH) from Moorella thermoacetica has been the subject of considerable research aimed at elucidating the geometric and electronic properties of the A-cluster, which serves as the active site for ACS catalysis. While the recent success in obtaining high-resolution X-ray structures of this enzyme solved many of the mysteries regarding the number, identities, and coordination environments of the metal centers of the A-cluster, fundamental questions concerning the catalytic mechanism of this highly elaborate polynuclear active site have yet to be answered. This Commentary summarizes relevant information obtained from spectroscopic and computational studies on the oxidized, reduced, and CO-bound forms of the A-cluster and highlights some of the key issues regarding the electronic properties and reactivity of this cluster that need to be addressed in future studies.

Abstract
Acetyl coenzyme A synthase (ACS), found in acetogenic and methanogenic organisms, is responsible for the synthesis and breakdown of acetate. The mechanism by which methylcob(III)alamin, CO and coenzyme A are assembled/disassembled at the active-site A-cluster involves a number of biologically unprecedented intermediates. In the past two years, two protein crystal structures have significantly enhanced the understanding of the structure of the active-site A-cluster, responsible for catalysis. The structure reports spawned a number of important questions regarding the metal ion constitution of the active enzyme, the structure(s) of the spectroscopically identified states and the details of the catalytic mechanism. This Commentary addresses these issues in the framework of existing synthetic and chemical precedent studies aimed at developing rational structure-function correlations and presents structural and reactivity targets for future studies.

Abstract
The tripeptide, Ac-CysGlyCys-CONH2, is utilized as a ligand to bind Ni in a fashion identical to that found at the active site of acetyl coenzyme A synthase. The Ni-peptide construct is a suitable metalloligand for the preparation of larger structures formed via bridging Cys side chains. The complexes Ni(CysGlyCys)Ni(dppe) and Ni(CysGlyCys)Ni(depe) serve as close structural representations for the binuclear subcluster, exhibiting electrochemical properties that demonstrate facile access to the reduced mixed valent Ni(II)Ni(I) state, which binds CO.

Abstract
Carbon monoxide dehydrogenase/acetyl-CoA synthase (CODH/ACS) utilizes a unique Ni-M bimetallic site in the biosynthesis of acetyl-CoA, where a square-planar Ni ion is coordinated to two thiolates and two deprotonated amides in a Cys-Gly-Cys motif. The identity of M is currently a matter of debate, although both Cu and Ni have been proposed. In an effort to model ACS's unusual active site and to provide insight into the mechanism of acetyl-CoA formation and the role of each of the metals ions, we have prepared and structurally characterized a number of Ni(II)-peptide mimic complexes. The mononuclear complexes Ni(II) N, N'-bis(2-mercaptoethyl)oxamide (1), Ni(II) N, N'-ethylenebis(2-mercaptoacetamide) (2), and Ni(II) N, N'-ethylenebis(2-mercaptopropionamide) (3) model the Ni(Cys-Gly-Cys) site and can be used as synthons for additional multinuclear complexes. Reaction of 2 with MeI resulted in the alkylation of the sulfur atoms and the formation of Ni(II) N, N'-ethylenebis(2-methylmercaptoacetamide) (4), demonstrating the nucleophilicity of the terminal alkyl thiolates. Addition of Ni(OAc)(2).4H(2)O to3 resulted in the formation of a trinuclear species (5), while 2 crystallizes as an unusual paddlewheel complex (6) in the presence of nickel acetate. The difference in reactivity between the similar complexes 2 and 3 highlights the importance of ligand design when synthesizing models of ACS. Significantly,5 maintains the key features observed in the active site of ACS, namely a square-planar Ni coordinated to two deprotonated amides and two thiolates, where the thiolates bridge to a second metal, suggesting that 5 is a reasonable structural model for this unique enzyme.

Abstract
A series of sulfido-bridged tungsten-ruthenium dinuclear complexes Cp*W(mu-S)(3)RuX(PPh(3))(2) (4a; X = Cl, 4b; X = H), Cp*W(O)(mu-S)(2)RuX(PPh(3))(2) (5a; X = Cl, 5b; X = H), and Cp*W(NPh)(mu-S)(2)RuX(PPh(3))(2) (6a; X = Cl, 6b; X = H) have been synthesized by the reactions of (PPh(4))[Cp*W(S)(3)] (1), (PPh(4))[Cp*W(O)(S)(2)] (2), and (PPh(4))[Cp*W(NPh)(S)(2)] (3), with RuClX(PPh(3))(3) (X = Cl, H). The heterolytic cleavage of H(2) was found to proceed at room temperature upon treating 5a and 6a with NaBAr(F)(4) (Ar(F) = 3, 5-C(6)H(3)(CF(3))(2)) under atmospheric pressure of H(2), which gave rise to [Cp*W(OH)(mu-S)(2)RuH(PPh(3))(2)](BAr(F)(4)) (7a) and [Cp*W(NHPh)(mu-S)(2)RuH(PPh(3))(2)](BAr(F)(4)) (8), respectively. When Cp*W(O)(mu-S)(2)Ru(PPh(3))(2)H (5b) was treated with a Brønstead acid, [H(OEt(2))(2)](BAr(F)(4)) or HOTf, protonation occurred exclusively at the terminal oxide to give [Cp*W(OH)(mu-S)(2)RuH(PPh(3))(2)](X) (7a; X = BAr(F)(4), 7b; X = OTf), while the hydride remained intact. The analogous reaction of Cp+W(mu-S)(3)Ru(PPh(3))(2)H (4b) led to immediate evolution of H(2). Selective deprotonation of the hydroxyl group of 7a or 7b was induced by NEt(3) and 4b, generating Cp*W(O)(mu-S)(2)Ru(PPh(3))(2)H (5b). Evolution of H(2) was also observed for the reactions of 7a or 7b with CH(3)CN to give [Cp*W(O)(mu-S)(2)Ru(CH(3)CN)(PPh(3))(2)](X) (11a; X = BAr(F)(4), 11b; X = OTf). We examined the H/D exchange reactions of 4b, 5b, and 7a with D(2) and CH(3)OD, and found that facile H/D scrambling over the W-OH and Ru-H sites occurred for 7a. Based on these experimental results, the mechanism of the heterolytic H(2) activation and the reverse H(2) evolution reactions are discussed.

Abstract
Square-planar copper(II) and nickel(II) derivatives of the cis-dithiolate N(2)S(2) ligand bis(N,N'-2-mercapto-2-methylpropyl)-1,5-diazocyclooctane, (bme*daco)M, nucleate four Cu(I)Cl moieties, forming M(II)(2)Cu(I)(4)S(4) clusters with unusual triply bridging thiolates, mu(3)-SR, in the topological form of adamantane. As determined by X-ray crystallography, the (bme*daco)M (M = Cu or Ni) metallothiolate serves as a bidentate ligand that bridges four Cu(I) ions, utilizing all lone pairs on sulfurs. Further characterization by electrochemical and electronic spectral measurements suggests greater electron delocalization in the all-copper complex as compared to the NiCu heterometallic complex. Mass spectral data imply that the mixed-metal Ni(II)(2)Cu(I)(4)S(4) is more stable toward CuCl loss than Cu(II)(2)Cu(I)(4)S(4), a result that is corroborated by extraction of Cu(I) by 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane in the latter but not the former.

Abstract
The crystal structure of the tetrameric alpha2beta2 acetyl-coenzyme A synthase/carbon monoxide dehydrogenase from Moorella thermoacetica has been solved at 1.9 A resolution. Surprisingly, the two alpha subunits display different (open and closed) conformations. Furthermore, X-ray data collected from crystals near the absorption edges of several metal ions indicate that the closed form contains one Zn and one Ni at its active site metal cluster (A-cluster) in the alpha subunit, whereas the open form has two Ni ions at the corresponding positions. Alternative metal contents at the active site have been observed in a recent structure of the same protein in which A-clusters contained one Cu and one Ni, and in reconstitution studies of a recombinant apo form of a related acetyl-CoA synthase. On the basis of our observations along with previously reported data, we postulate that only the A-clusters containing two Ni ions are catalytically active.

Abstract
A new N(2)S(2)Ni complex based on the 1,4-diazacycloheptane (dach) framework allows the study of the effects of ring size, in fused diamines, on the structural and chemical properties of nickel(II) dithiolate and dithioether complexes. Compared to its 1,5-diazacyclooctane (daco) derivatives, the dithiolate complex (bmedach)Ni and the S-templated, macrocyclic dithioether complex (propyl-bmedach)NiBr(2) show decreased cavity sizes with narrower angleN-Ni-N angles (by ca. 6 degrees ) and wider angleS-Ni-S angles (also by ca. 6 degrees ). The electrochemical properties of the dithiolate complexes based on dach and daco are nearly identical, while the (propyl-bmedach)NiBr(2) complex shows a 140 mV destabilization of the Ni(I) oxidation state relative to its daco analogue. Molecular structures for the (bmedach)Ni and (propyl-bmedach)NiBr(2) complexes and their respective electrochemical and spectroscopic properties are reported.

Abstract
Two new NiIIS4 complexes with the biphenyl-2,2'-dithiolate ligand (L) are reported. The dinuclear complex 1, [Ni2L3]2-, was formed in the reaction of 2-3 equiv of Na2L and [NiCl4]2- and the mononuclear complex [NiL2]2- (2) by using 4-10 equiv of Na2L. Complexes 1 and 2 have been crystallographically characterized. (Et4N)2[1].0.5S2Ph2, CH3CN: C60H71N3Ni2S7, triclinic, P1, a = 13.806(2) A, b = 14.267(2) A, c = 16.873(2) A, alpha = 69.263(10) degrees, beta = 69.267(8) degrees, gamma = 83.117(10) degrees, Z = 2, R1 = 0.0752 (wR2 = 0.2011). (Et4N)(Na.CH3CN)[2]: C34H39N2NaNiS4, triclinic, P1, a = 9.9570(10) A, b = 13.2670(10) A, c = 13.9560(10) A, alpha = 108.489(7) degrees, beta = 90.396(6) degrees, gamma = 103.570(4) degrees, Z = 2, R1 = 0.0390 (wR2 = 0.0995). Both complexes are square planar about the nickel ion in the solid state as well as in solution. Most Ni(II)-thiolate complexes are square planar except the tetrahedral mononuclear complexes with monodentate arylthiolate ligands that cannot force a square planar geometry. The ligand (L) has some flexibility to change its bite angle via the phenyl-phenyl bond and should not force a planar geometry on its complexes either. Therefore, it is interesting that 2 has adopted a square planar structure. Complex 2 readily converts to 1 in solution when not in the presence of excess L in a process that is presumably similar to that known for other mononuclear, bidentate ligated Ni(II) complexes. Both complexes, at least in the solid state, appear to have an inclination to bind another metal ion on one face of the complex (Ni2+ in 1, Na+ in 2). We hope to take advantage of this in future work to synthesize relevant model complexes for the active sites of the nickel-iron hydrogenases after suitable modifications are made to L.
