Abstract
Electrochemical and photochemical hydrogen (H2) evolution activities of a 6-fluoro-2-hydroxypyridinate (fhp-)-bridged paddlewheel-type dirhodium (Rh2) complex, [Rh2(fhp)4], were investigated through experimental and theoretical approaches. In DMF, the [Rh2(fhp)4] underwent a one-electron reduction (assigned to Rh24+/3+) at -1.31 V vs SCE in the cathodic region. Adding trifluoroacetic acid as a proton source to the electrochemical cell containing [Rh2(fhp)4], the significant catalytic current, i.e., electrochemical H2 evolution, was observed; the turnover frequency and overpotential of electrochemical H2 evolution were 18 244 s-1 and 732 mV, respectively. The reaction mechanism of electrochemical H2 evolution catalyzed by [Rh2(fhp)4] in DMF was examined in detail by theoretically predicting the redox potentials and pKa values of the reaction intermediates using density functional theory calculations. The calculations revealed that (i) the formation of a one-electron reduced species, [Rh2(fhp)4]-, triggered for H2 evolution and (ii) the protonation and reduction processes of [Rh2(fhp)4]- to further reduced hydride intermediates proceeded directly via a concerted proton-electron transfer mechanism. Moreover, [Rh2(fhp)4] was shown to be a highly efficient H2 evolution catalyst (HEC) for photochemical proton reduction reactions when combined with an artificial photosynthetic (AP) system containing [Ir(ppy)2(dtbbpy)]PF6 and triethylamine, which served as a photosensitizer and a sacrificial electron donor, respectively. Under visible light irradiation, the total amount of H2 evolved and its turnover number (per Rh ion) were 1361.0 µmol and 13 610, respectively, which are superior to those of previously reported AP systems with rhodium complexes as HEC.

Abstract
Molecular hydrogen (H2) is considered one of the most promising fuels to decarbonize the industrial and transportation sectors, and its photocatalytic production from molecular catalysts is a research field that is still abounding. The search for new molecular catalysts for H2 production with simple and easily synthesized ligands is still ongoing, and the terpyridine ligand with its particular electronic and coordination properties, is a good candidate to design new catalysts meeting these requirements. Herein, we have isolated the new mono-terpyridyl rhodium complex, [RhIII(tpy)(CH3CN)Cl2](CF3SO3) (Rh-tpy), and shown that it can act as a catalyst for the light-induced proton reduction into H2 in water in the presence of the [Ru(bpy)3]Cl2 (Ru) photosensitizer and ascorbate as sacrificial electron donor. Under photocatalytic conditions, in acetate buffer at pH 4.5 with 0.1 M of ascorbate and 530 μM of Ru, the Rh-tpy catalyst produces H2 with turnover number versus catalyst (TONCat*) of 300 at a Rh concentration of 10 μM, and up to 1000 at a concentration of 1 μM. The photocatalytic performance of Ru/Rh-tpy/HA-/H2A has been also compared with that obtained with the bis-dimethyl-bipyridyl complex [RhIII(dmbpy)2Cl2]+ (Rh2) as a catalyst in the same experimental conditions. The investigation of the electrochemical properties of Rh-tpy in DMF solvent reveals that the two-electrons reduced state of the complex, the square-planar [RhI(tpy)Cl] (RhI-tpy), is quantitatively electrogenerated by bulk electrolysis. This complex is stable for hours under an inert atmosphere owing to the π-acceptor property of the terpyridine ligand that stabilizes the low oxidation states of the rhodium, making this catalyst less prone to degrade during photocatalysis. The π-acceptor property of terpyridine also confers to the Rh-tpy catalyst a moderately negative reduction potential (Epc(RhIII/RhI) = -0.83 V vs. SCE in DMF), making possible its reduction by the reduced state of Ru, [RuII(bpy)(bpy•-)]+ (Ru-) (E1/2(RuII/Ru-) = -1.50 V vs. SCE) generated by a reductive quenching of the Ru excited state (*Ru) by ascorbate during photocatalysis. A Stern-Volmer plot and transient absorption spectroscopy confirmed that the first step of the photocatalytic process is the reductive quenching of *Ru by ascorbate. The resulting reduced Ru species (Ru-) were then able to activate the RhIII-tpy H2-evolving catalyst by reduction generating RhI-tpy, which can react with a proton on a sub-nanosecond time scale to form a RhIII(H)-tpy hydride, the key intermediate for H2 evolution.

Abstract
The direct conversion of solar energy to clean fuels as alternatives to fossil fuels is an important approach for addressing the global energy shortage and environmental problems. Here, we introduce a new dirhodium-complex-based framework assembly as a heterogeneous molecule-based photocatalyst for hydrogen evolution using visible light. Two dirhodium complexes bearing visible-light-harvesting BODIPY (boron dipyrromethene, BDP) moieties were newly designed and synthesized. The obtained complexes were self-assembled to framework structures (supramolecular framework catalysts), which are stabilized intermolecular noncovalent interactions. These frameworks retained excellent visible-light-harvesting properties of BDP moieties. Investigation of the catalytic performance of the supramolecular framework catalysts revealed that the supramolecular framework catalyst with heavy atoms at BDP moieties exhibited excellent performance in the formation of hydrogen with a reaction rate of 275.8 μmol g-1 h-1 under irradiation of visible light, whereas the supramolecular framework catalyst without heavy atoms at BDP moieties was inactive. Moreover, the system has the additional benefits of high durability (up to 96 h), reusability, and facile removal from the reaction mixture. We also disclosed the effect of heavy atoms at BDP moieties on the catalytic activity and proposed a reaction mechanism.

Abstract
A series of Rh2(ii,ii) complexes were shown to electrocatalytically reduce CO2 to HCOOH. Electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical studies reveal a correlation between catalytic selectivity and efficiency with the steric bulk at the axial sites afforded by the bridging ligands. Mechanistic studies point to the presence of a Rh2(ii,i)-H hydride as a key intermediate in the catalytic cycle.

Unusual Structural Features in the Adduct of Dirhodium Tetraacetate with Lysozyme. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22031496.

Abstract
The structures of the adducts formed upon reaction of the cytotoxic paddlewheel dirhodium complex [Rh2(μ-O2CCH3)4] with the model protein hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) under different experimental conditions are reported. Results indicate that [Rh2(μ-O2CCH3)4] extensively reacts with HEWL:it in part breaks down, at variance with what happens in reactions with other proteins. A Rh center coordinates the side chains of Arg14 and His15. Dimeric Rh–Rh units with Rh–Rh distances between 2.3 and 2.5 Å are bound to the side chains of Asp18, Asp101, Asn93, and Lys96, while a dirhodium unit with a Rh–Rh distance of 3.2–3.4 Å binds the C-terminal carboxylate and the side chain of Lys13 at the interface between two symmetry-related molecules. An additional monometallic fragment binds the side chain of Lys33. These data, which are supported by replicated structural determinations, shed light on the reactivity of dirhodium tetracarboxylates with proteins, providing useful information for the design of new Rh-containing biomaterials with an array of potential applications in the field of catalysis or of medicinal chemistry and valuable insight into the mechanism of action of these potential anticancer agents.

Abstract
The one-dimensional coordination polymer [Rh2(HA)4]n (1G; HA = hexanoate) exhibits a drastic vapochromic color change from green to red upon exposure to pyridine (py) vapor. Heating the red discrete complex [Rh2(HA)4(py)2] (1R) at 338 K affords the purple discrete tetrarhodium complex [Rh2(HA)4(py)]2 (1P), which is an intermediate species in the vapochromic transformation of 1G to 1R. The obtained complexes 1G, 1R, and 1P differ not only in their color in the solid state, but also in their temperature-dependent phase transition properties.

Abstract
The interactions between the cytotoxic paddlewheel dirhodium complex [Rh2(μ-O2CCH3)4] and the model protein bovine pancreatic ribonuclease (RNase A) were investigated by high-resolution mass spectrometry and X-ray crystallography. The results indicate that [Rh2(μ-O2CCH3)4] extensively reacts with RNase A. The metal compound binds the protein via coordination of the imidazole ring of a His side chain to one of its axial sites, while the dirhodium center and the acetato ligands remain unmodified. Data provide valuable information for the design of artificial dirhodium-containing metalloenzymes.

Abstract
A novel heteroleptic paddlewheel-type dirhodium (Rh2) complex [Rh2(O2CCH3)3(PABC)] (1; PABC = para-aminobenzenecarboxylate), which has an amino group as a potential donor site for coordination with the metal ion, was synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR, ESI-TOF-MS, infrared spectra, and elemental analysis. The slow evaporation of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF)-dissolved 1 produces the purple-colored crystalline polymeric species [Rh2(O2CCH3)3 (PABC)(DMF)]n (1P). Single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction analyses, as well as thermo-gravimetric analysis, clarified that 1P formed a one-dimensional polymeric structure, in which the two axial sites of the Rh2 ion in 1P are coordinated by a DMF molecule and an amino group of the PABC ligand of the neighboring molecule 1, by coordination-induced self-assembly (polymerization) with an Rh-amino bond. The reversible structural change (self-assembly and disassembly transformations) between the discrete species [Rh2(O2CCH3)3(PABC)(DMF)2] (1D; green solution) and the polymeric species 1P (purple solid) was accompanied by a color change, which easily occurred by the dissolution and evaporation procedures with DMF.
