Amine-rich Cp ligands not only boost the electron density at Fe, but the carbon atoms are more basic than nitrogen, leading to an unusual electrocatalytic H2 evolution mechanism. Key findings to support this result were computed by our collaborators at the University of Bonn. Congrats to Bhumika, Práxedes, and Hagen (Uni Bonn) for your efforts, well done!
