Abstract

X-ray absorption spectroscopic measurements and density functional calculations suggest that the hydrogenase H-cluster is best described as an electronically inseparable 6Fe-cluster due to extensive delocalization of frontier molecular orbitals of the iron centres, sulfide and the non-innocent dithiolate ligands.
