Structural and Spectroscopic Evidence for a Side-on Fe(III)-Superoxo Complex Featuring Discrete O-O Bond Distances.

ABSTRACT: The O-O bond length is often used as a structural indicator to determine the valence states of bound O₂ ligands in biological metal-dioxygen intermediates and related biomimetic complexes. Here, we report very distinct O-O bond lengths found for three crystallographic forms (1.229(4), 1.330(4), 1.387(2) Å at 100 K) of a side-on iron-dioxygen species. Despite their different O-O bond distances, all forms possess the same electronic structure of Fe(III)-O₂ ^•-, as evidenced by their indistinguishable spectroscopic features. Density functional theory and ab initio calculations, which successfully reproduce spectroscopic parameters, predict a flat potential energy surface of an η²-O₂ motif binding to the iron center regarding the O-O distance. Therefore, the discrete O-O bond lengths observed likely arise from differential intermolecular interactions in the second coordination sphere. The work suggests that the O-O distance is not a reliable benchmark to unequivocally identify the valence state of O₂ ligands for metal-dioxygen species in O₂-utilizing metalloproteins and synthetic complexes.

Spectroscopic and computational investigation of iron(III) cysteine dioxygenase: implications for the nature of the putative superoxo-Fe(III) intermediate.

Project description:Cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) is a mononuclear, non-heme iron-dependent enzyme that converts exogenous cysteine (Cys) to cysteine sulfinic acid using molecular oxygen. Although the complete catalytic mechanism is not yet known, several recent reports presented evidence for an Fe(III)-superoxo reaction intermediate. In this work, we have utilized spectroscopic and computational methods to investigate the as-isolated forms of CDO, as well as Cys-bound Fe(III)CDO, both in the absence and presence of azide (a mimic of superoxide). An analysis of our electronic absorption, magnetic circular dichroism, and electron paramagnetic resonance data of the azide-treated as-isolated forms of CDO within the framework of density functional theory (DFT) computations reveals that azide coordinates directly to the Fe(III), but not the Fe(II) center. An analogous analysis carried out for Cys-Fe(III)CDO provides compelling evidence that at physiological pH, the iron center is six coordinate, with hydroxide occupying the sixth coordination site. Upon incubation of this species with azide, the majority of the active sites retain hydroxide at the iron center. Nonetheless, a modest perturbation of the electronic structure of the Fe(III) center is observed, indicating that azide ions bind near the active site. Additionally, for a small fraction of active sites, azide displaces hydroxide and coordinates directly to the Cys-bound Fe(III) center to generate a low-spin (S = (1)/2) Fe(III) complex. In the DFT-optimized structure of this complex, the central nitrogen atom of the azide moiety lies within 3.12 Å of the cysteine sulfur. A similar orientation of the superoxide ligand in the putative Fe(III)-superoxo reaction intermediate would promote the attack of the distal oxygen atom on the sulfur of substrate Cys.

Iron Catalyzed Double Bond Isomerization: Evidence for an FeI /FeIII Catalytic Cycle.

Project description:Iron-catalyzed isomerization of alkenes is reported using an iron(II) β-diketiminate pre-catalyst. The reaction proceeds with a catalytic amount of a hydride source, such as pinacol borane (HBpin) or ammonia borane (H3 N⋅BH3 ). Reactivity with both allyl arenes and aliphatic alkenes has been studied. The catalytic mechanism was investigated by a variety of means, including deuteration studies, Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. The data obtained support a pre-catalyst activation step that gives access to an η2 -coordinated alkene FeI complex, followed by oxidative addition of the alkene to give an FeIII intermediate, which then undergoes reductive elimination to allow release of the isomerization product.

Crystallographic and spectroscopic characterization and reactivities of a mononuclear non-haem iron(III)-superoxo complex.

Project description:Mononuclear non-haem iron(III)-superoxo species (Fe(III)-O2(-·)) have been implicated as key intermediates in the catalytic cycles of dioxygen activation by non-haem iron enzymes. Although non-haem iron(III)-superoxo species have been trapped and characterized spectroscopically in enzymatic and biomimetic reactions, no structural information has yet been obtained. Here we report the isolation, spectroscopic characterization and crystal structure of a mononuclear side-on (η(2)) iron(III)-superoxo complex with a tetraamido macrocyclic ligand. The non-haem iron(III)-superoxo species undergoes both electrophilic and nucleophilic oxidation reactions, as well as O2-transfer between metal complexes. In the O2-transfer reaction, the iron(III)-superoxo complex transfers the bound O2 unit to a manganese(III) analogue, resulting in the formation of a manganese(IV)-peroxo complex, which is characterized structurally and spectroscopically as a mononuclear side-on (η(2)) manganese(IV)-peroxo complex. The difference in the redox distribution between the metal ions and O2 in iron(III)-superoxo and manganese(IV)-peroxo complexes is rationalized using density functional theory calculations.

Formation of a Reactive, Alkyl Thiolate-Ligated FeIII-Superoxo Intermediate Derived from Dioxygen.

Project description:Herein, we describe an alkyl thiolate-ligated iron complex that reacts with dioxygen to form an unprecedented example of an iron superoxo (O2•-) intermediate, [FeIII(S2Me2N3(Pr,Pr))(O2)] (4), which is capable of cleaving strong C-H bonds. A cysteinate-ligated iron superoxo intermediate is proposed to play a key role in the biosynthesis of β-lactam antibiotics by isopenicillin N-synthase (IPNS). Superoxo 4 converts to a metastable putative Fe(III)-OOH intermediate, at rates that are dependent on the C-H bond strength of the H atom donor, with a kinetic isotope effect ( kH/ kD = 4.8) comparable to that of IPNS ( kH/ kD = 5.6). The bond dissociation energy of the C-H bonds cleaved by 4 (92 kcal/mol) is comparable to C-H bonds cleaved by IPNS (93 kcal/mol). Both the calculated and experimental electronic absorption spectra of 4 are comparable to those of the putative IPNS superoxo intermediate, and are shown to involve RS- → Fe-O2•- and O2•- → Fe charge transfer transitions. The π-back-donation by the electron-rich alkyl thiolate presumably facilitates this reactivity by increasing the basicity of the distal oxygen. The frontier orbitals of 4 are shown to consist of two strongly coupled unpaired electrons of opposite spin, one in a superoxo π*(O-O) orbital, and the other in an Fe(d xy) orbital.

Phosphine Oxides as Spectroscopic Halogen Bond Descriptors: IR and NMR Correlations with Interatomic Distances and Complexation Energy.

Project description:An extensive series of 128 halogen-bonded complexes formed by trimethylphosphine oxide and various F-, Cl-, Br-, I- and At-containing molecules, ranging in energy from 0 to 124 kJ/mol, is studied by DFT calculations in vacuum. The results reveal correlations between R-X⋅⋅⋅O=PMe3 halogen bond energy ΔE, X⋅⋅⋅O distance r, halogen's σ-hole size, QTAIM parameters at halogen bond critical point and changes of spectroscopic parameters of phosphine oxide upon complexation, such as 31P NMR chemical shift, ΔδP, and P=O stretching frequency, Δν. Some of the correlations are halogen-specific, i.e., different for F, Cl, Br, I and At, such as ΔE(r), while others are general, i.e., fulfilled for the whole set of complexes at once, such as ΔE(ΔδP). The proposed correlations could be used to estimate the halogen bond properties in disordered media (liquids, solutions, polymers, glasses) from the corresponding NMR and IR spectra.

Spectroscopic identification of an Fe(III) center, not Fe(IV), in the crystalline Sc-O-Fe adduct derived from [Fe(IV)(O)(TMC)]²⁺.

Project description:The apparent Sc(3+) adduct of [Fe(IV)(O)(TMC)](2+) (1, TMC = 1,4,8,11-tetramethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) has been synthesized in amounts sufficient to allow its characterization by various spectroscopic techniques. Contrary to the earlier assignment of a +4 oxidation state for the iron center of 1, we establish that 1 has a high-spin iron(III) center based on its Mössbauer and EPR spectra and its quantitative reduction by 1 equiv of ferrocene to [Fe(II)(TMC)](2+). Thus, 1 is best described as a Sc(III)-O-Fe(III) complex, in agreement with previous DFT calculations (Swart, M. Chem. Commun. 2013, 49, 6650.). These results shed light on the interaction of Lewis acids with high-valent metal-oxo species.

Mononuclear Manganese(III) Superoxo Complexes: Synthesis, Characterization, and Reactivity.

Project description:Metal-superoxo species are typically proposed as key intermediates in the catalytic cycle of dioxygen activation by metalloenzymes involving different transition metal cofactors. In this regard, while a series of Fe-, Co-, and Ni-superoxo complexes have been reported to date, well-defined Mn-superoxo complexes remain rather rare. Herein, we report two mononuclear MnIII-superoxo species, Mn(BDPP)(O2•-) (2, H2BDPP = 2,6-bis((2-(S)-diphenylhydroxylmethyl-1-pyrrolidinyl)methyl)pyridine) and Mn(BDPBrP)(O2•-) (2', H2BDPBrP = 2,6-bis((2-(S)-di(4-bromo)phenylhydroxyl-methyl-1-pyrrolidinyl)methyl)pyridine), synthesized by bubbling O2 into solutions of their MnII precursors, Mn(BDPP) (1) and Mn(BDPBrP) (1'), at -80 °C. A combined spectroscopic (resonance Raman and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy) and computational study evidence that both complexes contain a high-spin MnIII center (SMn = 2) antiferromagnetically coupled to a superoxo radical ligand (SOO• = 1/2), yielding an overall S = 3/2 ground state. Complexes 2 and 2' were shown to be capable of abstracting a H atom from 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-hydroxypiperidine (TEMPO-H) to form MnIII-hydroperoxo species, Mn(BDPP)(OOH) (5) and Mn(BDPBrP)(OOH) (5'). Complexes 5 and 5' can be independently prepared by the reactions of the isolated MnIII-aqua complexes, [Mn(BDPP)(H2O)]OTf (6) and [Mn(BDPBrP)(H2O)]OTf (6'), with H2O2 in the presence of NEt3. The parallel-mode EPR measurements established a high-spin S = 2 ground state for 5 and 5'.

Synthesis, Kinetic Study, and Spectroscopic Analysis of Peroxidase-like Pinch-Porphyrin Fe(III) Complexes.

Project description:In the present manuscript, we report the kinetic and spectroscopic analysis of six new pinch-porphyrins: protoporphyrin-picpenta 1, mesoporphyrin-picpenta 2, deuteroporphyrin-picpenta 3, protoporphyrin-picocta 4, mesoporphyrin-picocta 5, and deuteroporphyrin-picocta 6. The Michaelis-Menten enzymatic pathway and the guaiacol test confirmed the ability of the compounds to function like new peroxidase models. UV-vis, 1H NMR, and electron spin resonance studies are in accordance with porphyrin-Fe(III) molecules with the quantum phenomena called quantum mixed spin (qms, s = 3/2, s = 5/2). Importantly, the influence of the presence of the s = 3/2 spin state in the compounds and its critical role for the catalytic capacity is proven here, which was the original hypothesis in our research group. The compounds with higher populations of the s = 3/2 spin state have increased peroxidase activity.

Dataset allowing for the identification of three new synthetic cannabimimetics featuring a norbornyl methyl side chain by spectrometric and spectroscopic techniques.

Project description:Synthetic cannabimimetics (SC) are a diverse group of new psychoactive substances with varying potency and harm potential. New SCs appear on the drug market every year, and reliable and correct identification of these new derivatives independent from the matrix relies on the availability of verified spectra. Three new synthetic cannabimimetics featuring a norbornyl methyl side chain and varying core structure elements were identified in different seizures and forms. Cumyl-BC[2.2.1]HpMeGaClone and Cumyl-BC[2.2.1]HpMINACA were laced onto herbal blends, whereas Cumyl-BC[2.2.1]HpMICA was seized as a pure solid powder. The data collection process involves a comprehensive set of orthogonal analytical techniques allowing for the unambiguous identification of the respective endo- and exo-isomers. Furthermore, the diversity of analytical techniques allows a greater number of laboratories working in the field of forensic chemistry to confidently identify the substances described in our original research article [1]. Structure elucidation and analytical characterisation were performed within the EU-project ADEBAR plus using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), gas chromatography-solid state infrared spectroscopy (GC-sIR), as well as solid and neat IR spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, liquid chromatography-electrospray ionisation-mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS), and high resolution (HR)-LC-ESI-MS, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The raw analytical data files are included in the Mendeley repository alongside the individual spectra in a universally importable format. The use of the universal JCAMP format for storage of the spectra facilitates database maintenance and enables seamless integration of the verified spectra. Thus, the dataset enables other researchers worldwide to identify these three new SCs confidently.

Fe(III) and Cu(II) Complexes of Chlorogenic Acid: Spectroscopic, Thermal, Anti-/Pro-Oxidant, and Cytotoxic Studies.

Project description:Complexes of chlorogenic acid (5-CQA) with copper(II) and iron(III) were synthesized in a solid state and examined by means of FT-IR, thermogravimetric, and elemental analyses. The molar stoichiometric ratios of metal:ligand for the solid forms of the complexes were established as Cu(II):L = 1:2 and Fe(III):L = 2:3 (L: 5-CQA), with the possible coordination through the carboxylate group and the hydroxyl group from the catechol moiety. In an aqueous solution at pH = 7.4, the composition of the complexes was Cu(II):L = 1:1, and Fe(III):L = 1:1 and 1:2. The Cu(II) and Fe(III) complexes with 5-CQA showed lower antioxidant properties, as estimated by the spectrophotometric methods with DPPH•, ABTS•+, and HO• radicals, than the ligand alone, whereas in the lipid peroxidation inhibition assay, the metal complexes revealed a higher antioxidant activity than 5-CQA. Cu(II) 5-CQA showed the highest pro-oxidant activity in the Trolox oxidation assays compared to the other studied compounds. The lipophilic parameters of the compounds were estimated using the HPLC method. 5-CQA and its complexes with Fe(III) and Cu(II) were not toxic to HaCaT cells in a tested concentration range of 0.15-1000 nM after a 24 h incubation time.
