Hydroxy-bridged resting states of a [NiFe]-hydrogenase unraveled by cryogenic vibrational spectroscopy and DFT computations

The catalytic mechanism of [NiFe]-hydrogenases is a subject of extensive research. Apart from at least four reaction intermediates of H 2 /H + cycling, there are also a number of resting states, which are formed under oxidizing conditions. Although not directly involved in the catalytic cycle, the k...
