A designed second-sphere hydrogen-bond interaction that critically influences the O–O bond activation for heterolytic cleavage in ferric iron–porphyrin complexes† † Electronic supplementary information (ESI) available. See DOI: 10.1039/c9sc04388h

ABSTRACT: Heme hydroperoxidases catalyze the oxidation of substrates by H2O2. The catalytic cycle involves the formation of a highly oxidizing species known as Compound I, resulting from the two-electron oxidation of the ferric heme in the active site of the resting enzyme. This high-valent intermediate is formed upon facile heterolysis of the O–O bond in the initial FeIII–OOH complex. Heterolysis is assisted by the histidine and arginine residues present in the heme distal cavity. This chemistry has not been successfully modeled in synthetic systems up to now. In this work, we have used a series of iron(iii) porphyrin complexes (FeIIIL2(Br), FeIIIL3(Br) and FeIIIMPh(Br)) with covalently attached pendent basic groups (pyridine and primary amine) mimicking the histidine and arginine residues in the distal-pocket of natural heme enzymes. The presence of pendent basic groups, capable of 2nd sphere hydrogen bonding interactions, leads to almost 1000-fold enhancement in the rate of Compound I formation from peracids relative to analogous complexes without these residues. The short-lived Compound I intermediate formed at cryogenic temperatures could be detected using UV-vis electronic absorption spectroscopy and also trapped to be unequivocally identified by 9 GHz EPR spectroscopy at 4 K.

Heterolytic Si-H Bond Cleavage at a Molybdenum-Oxido-Based Lewis Pair.

Project description:The reaction of a molybdenum(VI) oxido imido complex with the strong Lewis acid B(C6 F5 )3 gave access to the Lewis adduct [Mo{OB(C6 F5 )3 }(NtBu)L2 ] featuring reversible B-O bonding in solution. The resulting frustrated Lewis pair (FLP)-like reactivity is reflected by the compound's ability to heterolytically cleave Si-H bonds, leading to a clean formation of the novel cationic MoVI species 3 a (R=Et) and 3 b (R=Ph) of the general formula [Mo(OSiR3 )(NtBu)L2 ][HB(C6 F5 )3 ]. These compounds possess properties highly unusual for molybdenum d0 species such as an intensive, charge-transfer-based color as well as a reversible redox couple at very low potentials, both dependent on the silane used. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses of 2 and 4 b, a derivative of 3 b featuring the [FB(C6 F5 )3 ]- anion, picture the stepwise elongation of the Mo=O bond, leading to a large increase in the electrophilicity of the metal center. The reaction of 3 a and 3 b with benzaldehyde allowed for the regeneration of compound 2 by hydrosilylation of the benzaldehyde. NMR spectroscopy suggested an unusual mechanism for the transformation, involving a substrate insertion in the B-H bond of the borohydride anion.

Heterolytic OO bond cleavage: Functional role of Glu113 during bis-Fe(IV) formation in MauG.

Project description:The diheme enzyme MauG utilizes H2O2 to perform oxidative posttranslational modification on a protein substrate. A bis-Fe(IV) species of MauG was previously identified as a key intermediate in this reaction. Heterolytic cleavage of the OO bond of H2O2 drives the formation of the bis-Fe(IV) intermediate. In this work, we tested a hypothesis that a glutamate residue, Glu113 in the distal pocket of the pentacoordinate heme of MauG, facilitates heterolytic OO bond cleavage, thereby leading to bis-Fe(IV) formation. This hypothesis was proposed based on sequence alignment and structural comparison with other H2O2-utilizing hemoenzymes, especially those from the diheme enzyme superfamily that MauG belongs to. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) characterization of the reaction between MauG and H2O2 revealed that mutation of Glu113 inhibited heterolytic OO bond cleavage, in agreement with our hypothesis. This result was further confirmed by the HPLC study in which an analog of H2O2, cumene hydroperoxide, was used to probe the pattern of OO bond cleavage. Together, our data suggest that Glu113 functions as an acid-base catalyst to assist heterolytic OO bond cleavage during the early stage of the catalytic reaction. This work advances our mechanistic understanding of the H2O2-activation process during bis-Fe(IV) formation in MauG.

Second-sphere tuning of analogues for the ferric-hydroperoxoheme form of Mycobacterium tuberculosis MhuD.

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis MhuD catalyzes the oxygenation of heme to mycobilin; experimental data presented here elucidates the novel hydroxylation reaction catalyzed by this enzyme. Analogues for the critical ferric-hydroperoxoheme (MhuD-heme-OOH) intermediate of this enzyme were characterized using UV/Vis absorption (Abs), circular dichroism (CD), and magnetic CD (MCD) spectroscopies. In order to extract electronic transition energies from these spectroscopic data, a novel global fitting model was developed for analysis of UV/Vis Abs, CD, and MCD data. A variant of MhuD was prepared, N7S, which weakens the affinity of heme-bound enzyme for a hydroperoxo analogue, azide, without significantly altering the protein secondary structure. Global fitting of spectroscopic data acquired in this study revealed that the second-sphere N7S substitution perturbs the electronic structure of two analogues for MhuD-heme-OOH: azide-inhibited MhuD (MhuD-heme-N3) and cyanide-inhibited MhuD (MhuD-heme-CN). The ground state electronic structures of MhuD-heme-N3 and MhuD-heme-CN were assessed using variable-temperature, variable-field MCD. Altogether, these data strongly suggest that there is a hydrogen bond between the Asn7 side-chain and the terminal oxygen of the hydroperoxo ligand in MhuD-heme-OOH. As discussed herein, this finding supports a novel hydroxylation reaction mechanism where the Asn7 side-chain guides a transient hydroxyl radical derived from homolysis of the OO bond in MhuD-heme-OOH to the β- or δ-meso carbon of the porphyrin ligand yielding β- or δ-meso-hydroxyheme, respectively.

Heterolytic bond activation at gold: evidence for gold(iii) H-B, H-Si complexes, H-H and H-C cleavage.

Project description:The coordinatively unsaturated gold(iii) chelate complex [(C^N-CH)Au(C6F5)]+ (1 +) reacts with main group hydrides H-BPin and H-SiEt3 in dichloromethane solution at -70 °C to form the corresponding σ-complexes, which were spectroscopically characterized (C^N-CH = 2-(C6H3Bu t )-6-(C6H4Bu t )pyridine anion; Pin = OCMe2CMe2O). In the presence of an external base such as diethyl ether, heterolytic cleavage of the silane H-Si bond leads to the gold hydrides [{(C^N-CH)AuC6F5}2(μ-H)]+ (2 +) and (C^N-CH)AuH(C6F5) (5), together with spectroscopically detected [Et3Si-OEt2]+. The activation of dihydrogen also involves heterolytic H-H bond cleavage but requires a higher temperature (-20 °C). H2 activation proceeds in two mechanistically distinct steps: the first leading to 2 plus [H(OEt2)2]+, the second to protonation of one of the C^N pyridine ligands and reductive elimination of C6F5H. By comparison, formation of gold hydrides by cleavage of suitably activated C-H bonds is very much more facile; e.g. the reaction of 1·OEt2 with Hantzsch ester is essentially instantaneous and quantitative at -30 °C. This is the first experimental observation of species involved in the initial steps of gold catalyzed hydroboration, hydrosilylation and hydrogenation and the first demonstration of the ability of organic C-H bonds to act as hydride donors towards gold.

Incorporation of second coordination sphere D-amino acids alters Cd(II) geometries in designed thiolate-rich proteins.

Project description:We use a de Novo protein design strategy to demonstrate that the second coordination sphere of a metal site plays a key role in controlling coordination geometries of Cd(II)-tris-thiolate complexes. Specifically, we show that alteration of chirality within the core hydrophobic packing region of a three-stranded coiled coil (3SCC) can control the coordination number of Cd(II) by limiting steric encumbrance to the metal center. Within a specific class of 3SCCs [Ac-G-(LKALEEK) n -G-NH2], where n = 4 is TRI and n = 5 is GRAND, one L-Leu may be substituted by L-Cys to generate a planar tris-thiolate array capable of metal binding. In the native peptide containing only the L-configuration of leucine, the three-Cys ligand site leads to a mixture of 3- and 4-coordinate Cd(II). When the L-Leu above (toward the N-terminus) the tris-Cys site is substituted with D-Leu, solely a 3-coordinate structure [Cd(II)S3] was obtained. When D-Leu is located below (toward the C-terminus), a mixture of two coordination geometries, presumably Cd(II)S3O and Cd(II)S3O2, is observed, while substitution with D-Leu both above and below the tris-Cys plane yields a higher percentage of 4-coordinate Cd(II)S3O species. Thus, the use of D-amino acids around a metal's coordination sphere provides a powerful tool for controlling the properties of future designed metalloproteins.

Spectroscopic and Computational Comparisons of Thiolate-Ligated Ferric Nonheme Complexes to Cysteine Dioxygenase: Second-Sphere Effects on Substrate (Analogue) Positioning.

Project description:Parallel spectroscopic and computational studies of iron(III) cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) and synthetic models are presented. The synthetic complexes utilize the ligand tris(4,5-diphenyl-1-methylimidazol-2-yl)phosphine (Ph2TIP), which mimics the facial three-histidine triad of CDO and other thiol dioxygenases. In addition to the previously reported [FeII(CysOEt)(Ph2TIP)]BPh4 (1; CysOEt is the ethyl ester of anionic l-cysteine), the formation and crystallographic characterization of [FeII(2-MTS)(Ph2TIP)]BPh4 (2) is reported, where the methyl 2-thiosalicylate anion (2-MTS) resembles the substrate of 3-mercaptopropionate dioxygenase (MDO). One-electron chemical oxidation of 1 and 2 yields ferric species that bind cyanide and azide anions, which have been used as spectroscopic probes of O2 binding in prior studies of FeIII-CDO. The six-coordinate FeIII-CN and FeIII-N3 adducts are examined with UV-vis absorption, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and resonance Raman (rRaman) spectroscopies. In addition, UV-vis and rRaman studies of cysteine- and cyanide-bound FeIII-CDO are reported for both the wild-type (WT) enzyme and C93G variant, which lacks the Cys-Tyr cross-link that is present in the second coordination sphere of the WT active site. Density functional theory (DFT) and ab initio calculations are employed to provide geometric and electronic structure descriptions of the synthetic and enzymatic FeIII adducts. In particular, it is shown that the complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) method, in tandem with n-electron valence state second-order perturbation theory (NEVPT2), is capable of elucidating the structural basis of subtle shifts in EPR g values for low-spin FeIII species.

Modifying the Steric Properties in the Second Coordination Sphere of Designed Peptides Leads to Enhancement of Nitrite Reductase Activity.

Project description:Protein design is a useful strategy to interrogate the protein structure-function relationship. We demonstrate using a highly modular 3-stranded coiled coil (TRI-peptide system) that a functional type?2 copper center exhibiting copper nitrite reductase (NiR) activity exhibits the highest homogeneous catalytic efficiency under aqueous conditions for the reduction of nitrite to NO and H2 O. Modification of the amino acids in the second coordination sphere of the copper center increases the nitrite reductase activity up to 75-fold compared to previously reported systems. We find also that steric bulk can be used to enforce a three-coordinate CuI in a site, which tends toward two-coordination with decreased steric bulk. This study demonstrates the importance of the second coordination sphere environment both for controlling metal-center ligation and enhancing the catalytic efficiency of metalloenzymes and their analogues.

Heterolytic H<sub>2</sub> Cleavage and Catalytic Hydrogenation by an Iron Metallaboratrane.

Project description:Reversible, heterolytic addition of H2 across an iron-boron bond in a ferraboratrane with formal hydride transfer to the boron gives iron-borohydrido-hydride complexes. These compounds catalyze the hydrogenation of alkenes and alkynes to the respective alkanes. Notably, the boron is capable of acting as a shuttle for hydride transfer to substrates. The results are interesting in the context of heterolytic substrate addition across metal-boron bonds in metallaboratranes and related systems, as well as metal-ligand bifunctional catalysis.

H<sub>2</sub> activation by hydrogenase-inspired NiFe catalyst using frustrated Lewis pair: effect of buffer and halide ion in the heterolytic H-H bond cleavage.

Project description:Hydrogen is a clean fuel alternative to fossil fuels, and it is vital to develop catalysts for its efficient activation and production. We investigate the reaction mechanism of H2 activation in an aqueous solution by the recently developed NiFe complex (Ogo et al. Sci. Adv. 2020, 6, eaaz8181) using density functional theory (DFT) calculation. Our computational results showed that H2 is activated using frustrated Lewis pair. That is, H2 binds to the Fe site of the NiFe complex, acting as a Lewis acid, while the added buffer, acting as Lewis base, abstracts protons to form a hydride complex. Furthermore, the higher basicity in the proton abstraction reaction characterises reaction more exergonic and lowers the reaction barrier. In addition, in the proton abstraction by the water molecule, the reaction barrier was lowered when anion such as Cl- is in the vicinity of the water. Understanding the chemical species that contribute to the catalytic process in cooperation with the metal catalyst at the atomic level should help to maximise the function of the catalyst.

Thioether-ligated iron(II) and iron(III)-hydroperoxo/alkylperoxo complexes with an H-bond donor in the second coordination sphere.

Project description:The non-heme iron complexes, [Fe(II)(N3PySR)(CH3CN)](BF4)2 () and [Fe(II)(N3Py(amide)SR)](BF4)2 (), afford rare examples of metastable Fe(iii)-OOH and Fe(iii)-OOtBu complexes containing equatorial thioether ligands and a single H-bond donor in the second coordination sphere. These peroxo complexes were characterized by a range of spectroscopic methods and density functional theory studies. The influence of a thioether ligand and of one H-bond donor on the stability and spectroscopic properties of these complexes was investigated.
