Heterolytic cleavage of the H-H bond of H2 into a proton and hydride is a fundamentally important step in reactions of hydrogenase enzymes, oxidation of hydrogen in fuel cells, and catalytic hydrogenation of organic compounds. Incorporation of a pendant amine as a proton acceptor has been shown to facilitate reactions of the [FeFe]-hydrogenase enzyme as well as synthetic catalysts for oxidation of H2. We report the facile, reversible heterolytic cleavage of H2 in a Mn complex bearing a pendant amine, leading to an Mn-H and N-H bond, with an estimated rate of >107 s-1 at 25 ºC.
