To model the (His)(7)Cu4Sn (n = 1 or 2) active sites of nitrous oxide reductase, the first Cu-4(mu(4)-S) cluster supported only by nitrogen donors has been prepared using amidinate supporting ligands. Structural, magnetic, spectroscopic, and computational characterization is reported. Electrochemical data indicates that the 2-hole model complex can be reduced reversibly to the 1-hole state and irreversibly to the fully reduced state.
