The catalytic cycle of [FeFe] hydrogenase: A tale of two sites

[Display omitted] •[FeFe] hydrogenases use earth abundant metals for efficient hydrogen activation.•Understanding their catalytic mechanism may help synthesise new catalysts.•Their active site H-cluster contains two sites: a [4Fe-4S] site and a [2Fe] site.•Proton-coupled electron transfer and hydrid...
