A few recent electrochemical studies of diiron models of the iron-only hydrogenases' active site are summarized. Emphasis is put on the reduction mechanisms of hexacarbonyl complexes and on the different mechanisms of proton reduction that may operate depending on the nature of the complex and the strength of the acid. An attempt is made to discuss the thermodynamic and kinetic limitations of proton reduction processes supported by these compounds.
