Ce^IV - and HClO₄ -Promoted Assembly of an Fe₂ ^IV (μ-O)₂ Diamond Core from its Monomeric Fe^IV =O Precursor at Room Temperature.

ABSTRACT: Diiron(IV)-oxo species are proposed to effect the cleavage of strong C-H bonds by nonheme diiron enzymes such as soluble methane monooxygenase (sMMO) and fatty acid desaturases. However, synthetic mimics of such diiron(IV) oxidants are rare. Herein we report the reaction of (TPA*)Fe^II (1) (TPA*=tris(3,5-dimethyl-4-methoxypyridyl-2-methyl)amine) in CH₃ CN with 4 equiv CAN and 200 equiv HClO₄ at 20 °C to form a complex with an [Fe^IV ₂ (μ-O)₂ ]⁴⁺ core. CAN and HClO₄ play essential roles in this unprecedented transformation, in which the comproportionation of Fe^III -O-Ce^IV and Fe^IV =O/Ce⁴⁺ species is proposed to be involved in the assembly of the [Fe^IV ₂ (μ-O)₂ ]⁴⁺ core.

Cooperative CO2 adsorption mechanism in a perfluorinated CeIV-based metal organic framework.

Project description:Adsorbents able to uptake large amounts of gases within a narrow range of pressure, i.e., phase-change adsorbents, are emerging as highly interesting systems to achieve excellent gas separation performances with little energy input for regeneration. A recently discovered phase-change metal-organic framework (MOF) adsorbent is F4_MIL-140A(Ce), based on CeIV and tetrafluoroterephthalate. This MOF displays a non-hysteretic step-shaped CO2 adsorption isotherm, reaching saturation in conditions of temperature and pressure compatible with real life application in post-combustion carbon capture, biogas upgrading and acetylene purification. Such peculiar behaviour is responsible for the exceptional CO2/N2 selectivity and reverse CO2/C2H2 selectivity of F4_MIL-140A(Ce). Here, we combine data obtained from a wide pool of characterisation techniques - namely gas sorption analysis, in situ infrared spectroscopy, in situ powder X-ray diffraction, in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy, multinuclear solid state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and adsorption microcalorimetry - with periodic density functional theory simulations to provide evidence for the existence of a unique cooperative CO2 adsorption mechanism in F4_MIL-140A(Ce). Such mechanism involves the concerted rotation of perfluorinated aromatic rings when a threshold partial pressure of CO2 is reached, opening the gate towards an adsorption site where CO2 interacts with both open metal sites and the fluorine atoms of the linker.

Allicin‒Decorated FeO1-xOH Nanocatalytic Medicine for Fe2+/Fe3+ Cycling‒Promoted Efficient and Sustained Tumor Regression.

Project description:In the tumor treatment by Fenton reaction‒based nanocatalytic medicines, the gradual consumption of Fe(II) ions greatly reduces the production of hydroxyl radicals, one of the most active reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to much deteriorated therapeutic efficacy. Meanwhile, the ROS consumption caused by the highly expressed reduced glutathione (GSH) in the tumor microenvironment further prevents tumor apoptosis. Therefore, using the highly expressed GSH in tumor tissue to promote the Fe(III) reduction to Fe(II) can not only weaken the resistance of tumor to ROS attack, but also generate enough Fe(II) to accelerate the Fenton reaction. In view of this, an allicin‒modified FeO1-xOH nanocatalyst possessing varied valence states (II, III) has been designed and synthesized. The coexistence of Fe(II)/Fe(III) enables the simultaneous occurrence of Fenton reaction and GSH oxidation, and the Fe(III) reduction by GSH oxidation results in the promoted cyclic conversion of Fe ions in tumor and positive catalytic therapeutic effects. Moreover, allicin capable of regulating cell cycle and suppressing tumor growth is loaded on FeO1-xOH nanosheets to activate immune response against tumors and inhibit tumor recurrence, finally achieving the tumor regression efficiently and sustainably. This therapeutic strategy provides an innovative approach to formulate efficient antitumor nanomedicine for enhanced tumor treatment.

Reaction of FeaqII with Peroxymonosulfate and Peroxydisulfate in the Presence of Bicarbonate: Formation of FeaqIV and Carbonate Radical Anions.

Project description:Many advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) use Fenton-like reactions to degrade organic pollutants by activating peroxymonosulfate (HSO5-, PMS) or peroxydisulfate (S2O82-, PDS) with Fe(H2O)62+ (FeaqII). This paper presents results on the kinetics and mechanisms of reactions between FeaqII and PMS or PDS in the absence and presence of bicarbonate (HCO3-) at different pH. In the absence of HCO3-, FeaqIV, rather than the commonly assumed SO4•-, is the dominant oxidizing species. Multianalytical methods verified the selective conversion of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and phenyl methyl sulfoxide (PMSO) to dimethyl sulfone (DMSO2) and phenyl methyl sulfone (PMSO2), respectively, confirming the generation of FeaqIV by the FeaqII-PMS/PDS systems without HCO3-. Significantly, in the presence of environmentally relevant concentrations of HCO3-, a carbonate radical anion (CO3•-) becomes the dominant reactive species as confirmed by the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis. The new findings suggest that the mechanisms of the persulfate-based Fenton-like reactions in natural environments might differ remarkably from those obtained in ideal conditions. Using sulfonamide antibiotics (sulfamethoxazole (SMX) and sulfadimethoxine (SDM)) as model contaminants, our study further demonstrated the different reactivities of FeaqIV and CO3•- in the FeaqII-PMS/PDS systems. The results shed significant light on advancing the persulfate-based AOPs to oxidize pollutants in natural water.

Highly Reactive CoIII,IV2(μ-O)2 Diamond Core Complex That Cleaves C-H Bonds.

Project description:The selective activation of strong sp3 C-H bonds at mild conditions is a key step in many biological and synthetic transformations and an unsolved challenge for synthetic chemists. In nature, soluble methane monooxygenase (sMMO) is one representative example of nonheme dinuclear iron-dependent enzymes that activate strong sp3 C-H bonds by a high-valent diiron(IV) intermediate Q. To date, synthetic model complexes of sMMO-Q have shown limited abilities to oxidize strong C-H bonds. In this work, we generated a high-valent CoIII,IV2(μ-O)2 complex 3 supported by a tetradentate tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (TPA) ligand via one-electron oxidation of its CoIII2(μ-O)2 precursor 2. Characterization of 2 and 3 using X-ray absorption spectroscopy and DFT calculations showed that both species possess a diamond core structure with a short Co···Co distance of 2.78 Å. Furthermore, 3 is an EPR active species showing an S = 1/2 signal with clearly observable hyperfine splittings originated from the coupling of the 59Co nuclear spin with the electronic spin. Importantly, 3 is a highly reactive oxidant for sp3 C-H bonds, and an oxygenation reagent. 3 has the highest rate constant (1.5 M-1 s-1 at -60 °C) for oxidizing 9,10-dihydroanthracene (DHA) compared to diamond core complexes of other first-row transition metals including Mn, Fe and Cu reported previously. Specifically, 3 is about 4-5 orders of magnitude more reactive than the diiron analogs FeIII,IV2(μ-O)2 and FeIV2(μ-O)2 supported by TPA and related ligands. These findings shed light on future development of more reactive approaches for C-H bond activation by bioinspired dicobalt complexes.

Promising Utilization of CO2 for Syngas Production over Mg2+- and Ce2+-Promoted Ni/?-Al2O3 Assisted by Nonthermal Plasma.

Project description:Dry reforming of methane is conducted in a catalyst packed-bed dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) reactor aiming to improve the reaction efficiency. The MgO- and CeO2-promoted Ni/?-Al2O3 catalyst is tested to carry out the reaction. An interesting observation is that Ni/MgO_Al2O3 integration provides ?35 and 13% conversion of CH4 and CO2, respectively. The highest syngas ratio of 0.94 is obtained with Ni/MgO_Al2O3, whereas the ratio is only 0.57 with Ni/CeO2_Al2O3 and 0.64 with bare DBD. In addition, Ni/CeO2_Al2O3 offers the highest selectivity (68%) of CO due to the oxygen buffer property of CeO2. Finally, the optimal acid/base property is highly desirable for the dry reforming reaction.

Second-sphere effects on H2O2 activation by non-heme FeII complexes: role of a phenol group in the [H2O2]-dependent accumulation of FeIVO vs. FeIIIOOH.

Project description:Redox metalloenzymes achieve very selective oxidation reactions under mild conditions using O2 or H2O2 as oxidants and release harmless side-products like water. Their oxidation selectivity is intrinsically linked to the control of the oxidizing species generated during the catalytic cycle. To do so, a second coordination sphere is used in order to create a pull effect during the activation of O2 or H2O2, thus ensuring a heterolytic O-O bond cleavage. Herein, we report the synthesis and study of a new non-heme FeII complex bearing a pentaazadentate first coordination sphere and a pendant phenol group. Its reaction with H2O2 generates the classical FeIIIOOH species at high H2O2 loading. But at low H2O2 concentrations, an FeIVO species is generated instead. The formation of the latter is directly related to the presence of the 2nd sphere phenol group. Kinetic, variable temperature and labelling studies support the involvement of the attached phenol as a second coordination sphere moiety (weak acid) during H2O2 activation. Our results suggest a direct FeII → FeIVO conversion directed by the 2nd sphere phenol via the protonation of the distal O atom of the FeII/H2O2 adduct leading to a heterolytic O-O bond cleavage.

Generation of a μ-1,2-hydroperoxo FeIIIFeIII and a μ-1,2-peroxo FeIVFeIII Complex.

Project description:μ-1,2-Peroxo-diferric intermediates (P) of non-heme diiron enzymes are proposed to convert upon protonation either to high-valent active species or to activated P' intermediates via hydroperoxo-diferric intermediates. Protonation of synthetic μ-1,2-peroxo model complexes occurred at the μ-oxo and not at the μ-1,2-peroxo bridge. Here we report a stable μ-1,2-peroxo complex {FeIII(μ-O)(μ-1,2-O2)FeIII} using a dinucleating ligand and study its reactivity. The reversible oxidation and protonation of the μ-1,2-peroxo-diferric complex provide μ-1,2-peroxo FeIVFeIII and μ-1,2-hydroperoxo-diferric species, respectively. Neither the oxidation nor the protonation induces a strong electrophilic reactivity. Hence, the observed intramolecular C-H hydroxylation of preorganized methyl groups of the parent μ-1,2-peroxo-diferric complex should occur via conversion to a more electrophilic high-valent species. The thorough characterization of these species provides structure-spectroscopy correlations allowing insights into the formation and reactivities of hydroperoxo intermediates in diiron enzymes and their conversion to activated P' or high-valent intermediates.

Opening the CoIII,IV2(μ-O)2 Diamond Core by Lewis Bases Leads to Enhanced C-H Bond Cleaving Reactivity.

Project description:The high-valent diiron(IV) intermediate Q is the key oxidant that cleaves strong C-H bonds of methane in the catalytic cycle of soluble methane monooxygenase (sMMO). sMMO-Q was previously reported as a bis-μ-oxo FeIV2(μ-O)2 diamond core but was recently described to have an open core with a long Fe···Fe distance. We recently reported a high-valent CoIII,IV2(μ-O)2 diamond core complex (1) that is highly reactive with sp3 C-H bonds. In this work, we demonstrated that the C-H bond cleaving reactivity of 1 can be further enhanced by introducing a Lewis base X, affording faster kinetic rate constants and the ability to cleave stronger C-H bonds compared to 1. We proposed that 1 first reacts with X in a fast equilibrium to form an open core species X-CoIII-O-CoIV-O (1-X). We were able to characterize 1-X using EPR spectroscopy and DFT calculations. 1-X exhibited an S = 1/2 EPR signal distinct from that of the parent complex 1. DFT calculations showed that 1-X has an open core with the spin density heavily delocalized in the CoIV-O unit. Moreover, 1-X has a more favorable thermodynamic driving force and a smaller activation barrier than 1 to carry out C-H bond activation reactions. Notably, 1-X is at least 4 orders of magnitude more reactive than its diiron open core analogues. Our findings indicate that the diamond core isomerization is likely a practical enzymatic strategy to unmask the strong oxidizing power of sMMO-Q necessary to attack the highly inert C-H bonds of methane.

Mechanism of Mixed-Valence Fe2.5+···Fe2.5+ Formation in Fe4S4 Clusters in the Ferredoxin Binding Motif.

Project description:Most low-potential Fe4S4 clusters exist in the conserved binding sequence CxxCxxC (CnCn+3Cn+6). Fe(II) and Fe(III) at the first (Cn) and third (Cn+6) cysteine ligand sites form a mixed-valence Fe2.5+···Fe2.5+ pair in the reduced Fe(II)3Fe(III) cluster. Here, we investigate the mechanism of how the conserved protein environment induces mixed-valence pair formation in the Fe4S4 clusters, FX, FA, and FB in photosystem I, using a quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical approach. Exchange coupling between Fe sites is predominantly determined by the shape of the Fe4S4 cluster, which is stabilized by the preorganized protein electrostatic environment. The backbone NH and CO groups in the conserved CxxCxxC and adjacent helix regions orient along the FeCn···FeC(n+6) axis, generating an electric field and stabilizing the FeCn(II)FeC(n+6)(III) state in FA and FB. The overlap of the d orbitals via -S- (superexchange) is observed for the single FeCn(II)···FeC(n+6)(III) pair, leading to the formation of the mixed-valence Fe2.5+···Fe2.5+ pair. In contrast, several superexchange Fe(II)···Fe(III) pairs are observed in FX due to the highly symmetric pair of the CDGPGRGGTC sequences. This is likely the origin of FX serving as an electron acceptor in the two electron transfer branches.

Direct Activation of the C(sp3)-NH2 Bond of Primary Aliphatic Alkylamines by a High-Valent CoIII,IV2(μ-O)2 Diamond Core Complex.

Project description:Aliphatic alkylamines are abundant feedstock and versatile building blocks for many organic transformations. While remarkable progress has been made to construct C-N bonds on aliphatic and aromatic carbon centers, the activation and functionalization of C(sp3)-NH2 bonds in primary alkylamines remain a challenging process. In the present work, we discovered an unprecedented method to directly activate the C(sp3)-NH2 bond of primary alkylamines by a high-valent dinuclear CoIII,IV2(μ-O)2 diamond core complex. This reaction results in the installation of other functional groups such as halides and alkenes onto the α-carbon center concomitant with the 2-e- oxidation of the nitrogen atom on the amino group to form NH2OH. These results shed light on future development enabling versatile functionalization of primary alkylamines based on the dinuclear cobalt system. Moreover, our work suggests that a related high-valent copper-oxo intermediate is likely generated in the ammonia monooxygenase catalytic cycle to affect the oxidation of NH3 to NH2OH.
