DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The nickel enzyme CODH (carbon monoxide dehydrogenase) plays a critical role in carbon cycling via microbial metabolism that converts CO2 to cellular carbon and, as such, is essential to life on this planet. Functional model complexes are lacking and thus this proposal aims to prepare heterobimetallic complexes with Ni/Fe centers resembling CODH with the goal to answer questions regarding the enzyme function and ultimately design systems for selective and efficient CO2 reduction. Purely functional models, those that are electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction, contain only one type of metal ion and operate at large overpotentials. New synthetic CODH model complexes are needed to illuminate the details necessary for producing a structurally faithful functional model. Our strategy involves the synthesis of heterobimetallic Ni/Fe complexes for CO2 reduction, a first in synthetic chemistry. We will utilize functionalized diimineo-dioxime ligands that allow sie-selective incorporation of two distinct metal ions. Questions to be addressed with these model complexes include: how does CO2 bind to heterobimetallic Ni/Fe centers? How does the Lewis acidic metal ion affect CO2 binding? What is the binding equilibria and extent of activation at reduced Ni/Fe centers? What conditions favor electrocatalytic reduction of CO2? Can the presence of a Lewis acidic metal improve Faradaic efficiencies and/or lower the overpotential necessary for catalysis? The Peters lab is suited to conduct these studies. Prof. Jonas Peters is an expert in synthetic organometallic and inorganic chemistry. Additionally, he is knowledgeable in the field of electrochemistry and electrocatalytic methods. Finally, the academic environment and facilities available at Caltech encourages rich collaborative discussions that will ensure the success of the proposed studies.

描述（由申请人提供）：镍酶CODH（一氧化碳脱氢酶）在通过微生物代谢将CO2转化为细胞碳的碳循环中起着关键作用，因此对地球上的生命至关重要。缺乏功能模型复合物，因此该提议旨在制备具有类似于CODH的Ni/Fe中心的杂环化合物，目的是回答关于酶功能的问题，并最终设计用于选择性和有效的CO2还原的系统。纯功能模型，即用于二氧化碳还原的电催化剂，仅包含一种类型的金属离子，并在大的过电位下运行。需要新的合成CODH模型复合物来阐明产生结构上忠实的功能模型所需的细节。我们的策略涉及到合成的heterocyclic Ni/Fe配合物的CO2还原，第一次在合成化学。我们将利用官能化的二亚胺-二肟配体，其允许两种不同的金属离子的选择性掺入。要解决的问题与这些模型的配合物包括：如何CO2绑定到heterocyclic Ni/Fe中心？刘易斯酸性金属离子如何影响CO2结合？还原态Ni/Fe中心的结合平衡和活化程度如何？什么条件有利于电催化还原CO2？刘易斯酸性金属的存在能提高法拉第效率和/或降低催化所需的过电位吗？彼得斯实验室适合进行这些研究。Jonas Peters教授是合成有机金属和无机化学方面的专家。此外，他在电化学和电催化方法领域有丰富的知识。最后，加州理工学院的学术环境和设施鼓励丰富的合作讨论，这将确保拟议研究的成功。
