Abstract
This article describes the structural authentication of a unique triply bridged [1](ClO4)2 and monomeric [2]ClO4/[3]ClO4. Electrochemical HER on a carbon cloth support demonstrated the superior performance of [1](ClO4)2 with high TON (>105) and its long-term stability. The primary kinetic isotope effect of [1](ClO4)2 revealed the involvement of PCET in the rate-determining step.

Abstract
Water electrolysis, a key enabler of hydrogen energy production, presents significant potential as a strategy for achieving net-zero emissions. However, the widespread deployment of water electrolysis is currently limited by the high-cost and scarce noble metal electrocatalysts in hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Given this challenge, design and synthesis of cost-effective and high-performance alternative catalysts have become a research focus, which necessitates insightful understandings of HER fundamentals and material engineering strategies. Distinct from typical reviews that concentrate only on the summary of recent catalyst materials, this review article shifts focus to material engineering strategies for developing efficient HER catalysts. In-depth analysis of key material design approaches for HER catalysts, such as doping, vacancy defect creation, phase engineering, and metal-support engineering, are illustrated along with typical research cases. A special emphasis is placed on designing noble metal-free catalysts with a brief discussion on recent advancements in electrocatalytic water-splitting technology. The article also delves into important descriptors, reliable evaluation parameters and characterization techniques, aiming to link the fundamental mechanisms of HER with its catalytic performance. In conclusion, it explores future trends in HER catalysts by integrating theoretical, experimental and industrial perspectives, while acknowledging the challenges that remain.

Abstract
Heteronuclear Fe(μ-H)Zn hydride Cp*Fe(1,2-Cy2PC6H4)HZnEt (3) undergoes reversible intramolecular Caryl-H reductive elimination through coupling of the cyclometalated phosphinoaryl ligand and the hydride, giving rise to a formal Fe(0)-Zn(II) species. Addition of CO intercepts this equilibrium, affording Cp*(Cy2PPh)(CO)Fe-ZnEt that features a dative Fe-Zn bond. Significantly, this system achieves bimetallic H2 addition, as demonstrated by the transformation of the monohydride Fe(μ-H)Zn to a deuterated dihydride Fe-(μ-D)2-Zn upon reaction with D2.

Abstract
The electronic structure of metal complexes plays key roles in determining their catalytic features. However, controlling electronic structures to regulate reaction mechanisms is of fundamental interest but has been rarely presented. Herein, we report electronic tuning of Cu porphyrins to switch pathways of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Through controllable and regioselective β-oxidation of Cu porphyrin 1, we synthesized analogues 2-4 with one or two β-lactone groups in either a cis or trans configuration. Complexes 1-4 have the same Cu-N4 core site but different electronic structures. Although β-oxidation led to large anodic shifts of reductions, 1-4 displayed similar HER activities in terms of close overpotentials. With electrochemical, chemical and theoretical results, we show that the catalytically active species switches from a CuI species for 1 to a Cu0 species for 4. This work is thus significant to present mechanism-controllable HER via electronic tuning of catalysts.

Abstract
An azadithiolate bridged CN- bound pentacarbonyl bis-iron complex, mimicking the active site of [Fe-Fe] H2ase is synthesized. The geometric and electronic structure of this complex is elucidated using a combination of EXAFS analysis, infrared and Mössbauer spectroscopy and DFT calculations. The electrochemical investigations show that complex 1 effectively reduces H+ to H2 between pH 0-3 at diffusion-controlled rates (1011 M-1 s-1) i.e. 108 s-1 at pH 3 with an overpotential of 140 mV. Electrochemical analysis and DFT calculations suggests that a CN- ligand increases the pKa of the cluster enabling hydrogen production from its Fe(i)-Fe(0) state at pHs much higher and overpotential much lower than its precursor bis-iron hexacarbonyl model which is active in its Fe(0)-Fe(0) state. The formation of a terminal Fe-H species, evidenced by spectroelectrochemistry in organic solvent, via a rate determining proton coupled electron transfer step and protonation of the adjacent azadithiolate, lowers the kinetic barrier leading to diffusion controlled rates of H2 evolution. The stereo-electronic factors enhance its catalytic rate by 3 order of magnitude relative to a bis-iron hexacarbonyl precursor at the same pH and potential.

Abstract
The novel dinuclear complex related to the [FeFe]-hydrogenases active site, [Fe2(μ-pdt)(κ2-dmpe)2(CO)2] (1), is highly reactive toward chlorinated compounds CHxCl4-x (x = 1, 2) affording selectively terminal or bridging chloro diiron isomers through a C-Cl bond activation. DFT calculations suggest a cooperative mechanism involving a formal concerted regioselective chloronium transfer depending on the unrotated or rotated conformation of two isomers of 1.

Abstract
The electrochemical reduction and protonation of [Fe2(adtH)(CO)6] (1, adtH = SCH2N(H)CH2S) and [Fe2(pdt)(CO)6] (2, pdt = SCH2CH2CH2S) in the presence of moderately strong acid in acetonitrile was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV), focusing on the catalysis of hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) by a {2e-,2H+} pathway. The turnover frequencies at zero overpotential (TOF0) of the N-protonated product 1(H)+ and 2 for the HER were estimated from simulations of the catalytic CV responses at low acid concentration using a simple ECEC mechanism (two electrochemical and chemical steps). This approach confirmed that 1(H)+ is clearly a better catalyst than 2, pointing to a possible role of the protonable and biologically relevant adtH ligand in the enhancement of the catalytic performances. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations further suggested that, owing to a strong structural rearrangement in the course of the catalytic cycle, the HER catalysis by 1(H)+ only involves the iron center adjacent to the amine group in adtH and not the two iron centers as in 2. Since terminal hydride species (FeFe-H) are known to more easily undergo protonolyse to H2 than their bridging hydride isomers (Fe-H-Fe), this may explain here the enhanced activity of 1(H)+ over 2 for the HER.

Abstract
Integration of molecular catalysts inside polymeric scaffolds has gained substantial attention over the past decade, as it provides a path towards generating systems with enhanced stability as well as enzyme-like morphologies and properties. In the context of solar fuels research and chemical energy conversion, this approach has been found to improve both rates and energy efficiencies of a range of catalytic reactions. However, system performance still needs to be improved to reach technologically relevant currents and stability, parameters that are heavily influenced by the nature of the incorporated molecular catalyst. Here, we have focused on the integration of a biomimetic {Fe2(μ-adt)(CO)6} (-CH2NHCH2S-, azadithiolate or adt2-) based active site ("[2Fe2S]adt"), inspired by the catalytic cofactor of [FeFe] hydrogenases, within a synthetic polymeric scaffold using free radical polymerization. The resulting metallopolymers [2Fe2S]adtk[DMAEMA]l[PyBMA]m (DMAEMA = dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate as water soluble monomer; PyBMA = 4-(pyren-1-yl)-butyl methacrylate as hydrophobic anchor for heterogenization) were found to be active for electrochemical H2 production in neutral aqueous media. The pyrene content was varied to optimize durability and activity. Following immobilization on multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNT) the most active metallopolymer, containing ∼2.3 mol% of PyBMA, could reach a turnover number for hydrogen production (TONH2) of ∼0.4 ×105 over 20 hours of electrolysis at an overpotential of 0.49 V, two orders of magnitude higher than the isolated catalyst counterpart. The study provides a synthetic methodology for incorporating catalytic units featuring second coordination sphere functional groups, and highlights the benefit of the confinement within the polymer matrix for catalytic performance.

Abstract
The selective formation of meta-stable Fe3O4 from ferrous sources by suppressing its oxidative conversion to the most stable hematite (α-Fe2O3) is challenging under oxidative conditions for solid-state synthesis. In this work, we investigated the conversion of iron(II) chloride (FeCl2) to magnetite (Fe3O4) under inert atmosphere in the presence of steam, and the obtained oxides were analyzed by atomic-resolution TEM, 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy, and the Verwey transition temperature (Tv). The reaction proceeded in two steps, with H2O as the oxide source in the initial step and as an oxidant in the second step. The initial hydrolysis occurred at temperatures higher than 120 °C to release gaseous HCl, via substituting lattice chloride Cl- with oxide O2-, to give iron oxide intermediates. In the first step, the construction of the intermediate oxides was not topotactic. The second step as a kinetic bottleneck occurred at temperatures higher than 350 °C to generate gaseous H2 through the oxidation of FeII by H+. A substantially large kinetic isotope effect (KIE) was observed for the second step at 500 °C, and this indicates the rate-determining step is the hydrogen evolution. Quantitative analysis of evolved H2 revealed that full conversion of ferrous chloride to magnetite at 500 °C was followed by additional oxidation of the outer sphere of magnetite to give a Fe2O3 phase, as supported by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and the outer phase confined the conductive magnetite phase within the insulating layers, enabling kinetic control of magnetite synthesis. As such, the reaction stopped at meta-stable magnetite with an excellent saturation magnetization (σs) of 86 emu g-1 and Tv > 120 K without affording the thermodynamically stable α-Fe2O3 as the major final product. The study also discusses the influence of parameters such as reaction temperature, initial grain size of FeCl2, the extent of hydration, and partial pressure of H2O.

Abstract
A newly designed copper complex of 5,15-bis(pentafluorophenyl)-10,20-bis(o-carborane)porphyrin (1) was synthesized and tested for the electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). In acetonitrile, 1 was much more efficient than Cu 5,15-bis(pentafluorophenyl)-10,20-diphenylporphyrin (2) for electrocatalytic HER by shifting the catalytic wave to the anodic direction by 190 mV. In aqueous media, 1 also outperformed 2 by achieving higher current densities under smaller overpotentials. This enhancement was attributed to the aromatic and the strong electron-withdrawing properties of o-carborane groups. This work is significant to address the crucial effects of meso-(o-carborane) substituents of metal porphyrins on boosting the electrocatalytic HER.

Abstract
Nickel bisdiphosphine complexes bearing pendant amines form a unique series of catalysts (so-called DuBois' catalysts) capable of bidirectional/reversible electrocatalytic oxidation and production of dihydrogen. This unique behaviour is directly linked to the presence of proton relays installed close to the metal center. We report here for the arginine derivative [Ni(P2 Cy N2 Arg )2 ]6+ on a mechanistic model and its kinetic treatment that may apply to all DuBois' catalysts and show that it allows for a good fit of experimental data measured at different pH values, catalyst concentrations and partial hydrogen pressures. The bidirectionality of catalysis results from balanced equilibria related to hydrogen uptake/evolution on one side and (metal)-hydride installation/capture on the other side, both controlled by concentration effects resulting from the presence of proton relays and connected by two square schemes corresponding to proton-coupled electron transfer processes. We show that the catalytic bias is controlled by the kinetic of the H2 uptake/evolution step. Reversibility does not require that the energy landscape be flat, with redox transitions occurring at potentials up to 250 mV away for the equilibrium potential, although such large deviations from a flat energy landscape can negatively impacts the rate of catalysis when coupled with slow interfacial electron transfer kinetics.

Abstract
[NiFe]-hydrogenases catalyze the reversible cleavage of H2 into two protons and two electrons at the inorganic heterobimetallic NiFe center of the enzyme. Their catalytic cycle involves at least four intermediates, some of which are still under debate. While the core reaction, including H2/H- binding, takes place at the inorganic cofactor, a major challenge lies in identifying those amino acid residues that contribute to the reactivity and how they stabilize (short-lived) intermediate states. Using cryogenic infrared and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy on the regulatory [NiFe]-hydrogenase from Cupriavidus necator, a model enzyme for the analysis of catalytic intermediates, we deciphered the structural basis of the hitherto elusive Nia-L intermediates. We unveiled the protonation states of a proton-accepting glutamate and a Ni-bound cysteine residue in the Nia-L1, Nia-L2, and the hydride-binding Nia-C intermediates as well as previously unknown conformational changes of amino acid residues in proximity of the bimetallic active site. As such, this study unravels the complexity of the Nia-L intermediate and reveals the importance of the protein scaffold in fine-tuning proton and electron dynamics in [NiFe]-hydrogenase.

Abstract
The extraordinary potential of hydrogen as a clean and sustainable fuel has sparked the interest of the scientific community to find environmentally friendly methods for its production. Biological catalysts are the most attractive solution, as they usually operate under mild conditions and do not produce carbon-containing byproducts. Hydrogenases promote reversible proton reduction to hydrogen in a variety of anoxic bacteria and algae, displaying unparallel catalytic performances. Attempts to use these sophisticated enzymes in scalable hydrogen production have been hampered by limitations associated with their production and stability. Inspired by nature, significant efforts have been made in the development of artificial systems able to promote the hydrogen evolution reaction, via either electrochemical or light-driven catalysis. Starting from small-molecule coordination compounds, peptide- and protein-based architectures have been constructed around the catalytic center with the aim of reproducing hydrogenase function into robust, efficient, and cost-effective catalysts. In this review, we first provide an overview of the structural and functional properties of hydrogenases, along with their integration in devices for hydrogen and energy production. Then, we describe the most recent advances in the development of homogeneous hydrogen evolution catalysts envisioned to mimic hydrogenases.

Abstract
We report on a photocatalytic setup that utilizes the organic photosensitizer (PS) diiodo-BODIPY and the non-precious-metal-based hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) catalyst (NH4)2[Mo3S13] together with a polyampholytic unimolecular matrix poly(dehydroalanine)-graft-poly(ethylene glycol) (PDha-g-PEG) in aqueous media. The system shows exceptionally high performance with turnover numbers (TON > 7300) and turnover frequencies (TOF > 450 h-1) that are typical for noble-metal-containing systems. Excited-state absorption spectra reveal the formation of a long-lived triplet state of the PS in both aqueous and organic media. The system is a blueprint for developing noble-metal-free HER in water. Component optimization, e.g., by modification of the meso substituent of the PS and the composition of the HER catalyst, is further possible.

Abstract
A series of mononuclear first-row transition metal pyrithione M(pyr) n complexes (M = Ni(II), Mn(II), n = 2; M = Co(III), Fe(III), n = 3) have been prepared from the reaction of the corresponding metal salt with the sodium salt of pyrithione. Using cyclic voltammetry, the complexes have been shown to behave as proton reduction electrocatalysts albeit with varying efficiencies in the presence of acetic acid as the proton source in acetonitrile. The nickel complex displays the optimal overall catalytic performance with an overpotential of 0.44 V. An ECEC mechanism is suggested for the nickel-catalyzed system based on the experimental data and supported by density functional theory calculations.

Abstract
Surface integration of molecular catalysts inspired from the active sites of hydrogenase enzymes represents a promising route towards developing noble metal-free and sustainable technologies for H2 production. Efficient and stable catalyst anchoring is a key aspect to enable this approach. Herein, we report the preparation and electrochemical characterization of an original diironhexacarbonyl complex including two pyrene groups per catalytic unit in order to allow for its smooth integration, through π-interactions, onto multiwalled carbon nanotube-based electrodes. In this configuration, the grafted catalyst could reach turnover numbers for H2 production (TONH2 ) of up to 4±2×103 within 20 h of bulk electrolysis, operating at neutral pH. Post operando analysis of catalyst functionalized electrodes revealed the degradation of the catalytic unit occurred via loss of the iron carbonyl units, while the anchoring groups and most part of the ligand remained attached onto multiwalled carbon nanotubes.

Abstract
One of the major goals of bioinorganic chemistry has been to mimic the function of elegant metalloenzymes. Such functional modeling has been difficult to attain in solution, in particular, for reactions that require multiple protons and multiple electrons (nH+/ne-). Using a combination of heterogeneous electrochemistry, electrode and molecule design one may control both electron transfer (ET) and proton transfer (PT) of these nH+/ne- reactions. Such control can allow functional modeling of hydrogenases (H+ + e- → 1/2 H2), cytochrome c oxidase (O2 + 4 e- + 4 H+ → 2 H2O), monooxygenases (RR'CH2 + O2 + 2 e- + 2 H+ → RR'CHOH + H2O) and dioxygenases (S + O2 → SO2; S = organic substrate) in aqueous medium and at room temperatures. In addition, these heterogeneous constructs allow probing unnatural bioinspired reactions and estimation of the inner- and outer-sphere reorganization energy of small molecules and proteins.
