Popis: | Fe 2 (bdt)(CO) 6 ( 1 ) (bdt = benzenedithiolate) exhibits a chemically reversible two-electron reduction at −1.27 V vs. Fc +/0 in CH 3 CN + Bu 4 NPF 6 electrolyte. The increase in height of the reduction wave of complex 1 upon increasing the concentration of toluenesulfonic acid (p K a ∼ 8 in CH 3 CN) is consistent with a catalysis of the proton reduction reaction ( k cat ∼ 500 M −1 s −1 ). The reaction scheme, derived from the simulation of the voltammetric responses, involves the initial formation of the dianion 1 2− followed by two successive reactions with acid. The last protonation step is the rate determining step in the catalytic cycle. Using experiments conducted with acetic acid (p K a ∼ 23 in CH 3 CN), we further shown that the intermediate species 1 H − is a significantly weaker base than the dianion 1 2− . |
