Comparing hydrogenases in nature with the compound developed in the current study

Caption

Comparison of the hydrogenase cycle found in nature with the compound developed in the study. Hydrogenases extract an electron from a single hydrogen molecule at room temperature for use in other biological processes. The compound developed in the current study undergoes a similar process to store electrons from hydrogen.
