Advance in chemical mimic of Fe-only hydrogenase

• Hydrogenases are one of the important enzymes in many microorganisms, which can catalyze the reversible oxidation of hydrogen. They are classified into three categories according to their active metal centers, that is, Fe-only, [Ni-Fe] and metal free H-2 ases. This review introduces primarily the recent advances in structural investigation and chemical mimic of Fe-only H-2 ases.
