Abstract
A C-H bond of Cp*(2)Co was found to be cleaved by a [Fe(8)S(7)] cluster model of the nitrogenase P-cluster. This is the first example of C-H bond activation mediated by a biologically relevant Fe/S cluster. The reaction mechanism probably consists of electron transfer from Cp*(2)Co to the [Fe(8)S(7)] cluster and subsequent proton abstraction by the reduced form of the cluster.Entities:
