1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) oxidase (ACCO) catalyzes the last step in the biosynthesis of the gaseous plant hormone ethylene, which is involved in development, including germination, fruit ripening, and senescence. ACCO is a mononuclear non-heme ferrous enzyme that couples the oxidation of the cosubstrate ascorbate to the oxidation of substrate ACC by dioxygen. In addition to substrate and cosubstrate, ACCO requires the activator CO(2) for continuous turnover. NIR circular dichroism and magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopies have been used to probe the geometric and electronic structure of the ferrous active site in ACCO to obtain molecular-level insight into its catalytic mechanism. Resting ACCO/Fe(II) is coordinatively saturated (six-coordinate). In the presence of CO(2), one ferrous ligand is displaced to yield a five-coordinate site only when both the substrate ACC and cosubstrate ascorbate are bound to the enzyme. The open coordination position allows rapid O(2) activation for the oxidation of both substrates. In the absence of CO(2), ACC binding alone converts the site to five-coordinate, which would react with O(2) in the absence of ascorbate and quickly deactivate the enzyme. These studies show that ACCO employs a general strategy similar to other non-heme iron enzymes in terms of opening iron coordination sites at the appropriate time in the reaction cycle and define the role of CO(2) as stabilizing the six-coordinate ACCO/Fe(II)/ACC complex, thus preventing the uncoupled reaction that inactivates the enzyme. 相似文献

Ethylene is a plant hormone involved in all stages of growth and development, including regulation of germination, responses to environmental stress, and fruit ripening. The final step in ethylene biosynthesis, oxidation of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) to yield ethylene, is catalyzed by ACC oxidase (ACCO). In a previous EPR and ENDOR study of the EPR-active Fe(II)-nitrosyl, [FeNO],(7) complex of ACCO, we demonstrated that both the amino and the carboxyl moieties of the inhibitor d,l-alanine, and the substrate ACC by analogy, coordinate to the Fe(II) ion in the Fe(II)-NO-ACC ternary complex. In this report, we use 35 GHz pulsed and CW ENDOR spectroscopy to examine the coordination of Fe by ACCO in more detail. ENDOR data for selectively (15)N-labeled derivatives of substrate-free ACCO-NO (E-NO) and substrate/inhibitor-bound ACCO-NO (E-NO-S) have identified two histidines as protein-derived ligands to Fe; (1,2)H and (17)O ENDOR of samples in D(2)O and H(2)(17)O solvent have confirmed the presence of water in the substrate-free Fe(II) coordination sphere (E-NO). Analysis of orientation-selective (14,15)N and (17)O ENDOR data is interpreted in terms of a structural model of the ACCO active site, both in the presence (E-NO-S) and in the absence (E-NO) of substrate. Evidence is also given that substrate binding dictates the orientation of bound O(2). 相似文献

The reaction catalyzed by the plant enzyme 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid oxidase (ACCO) was investigated by using hybrid density functional theory. ACCO belongs to the non-heme iron(II) enzyme superfamily and carries out the bicarbonate-dependent two-electron oxidation of its substrate ACC (1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid) concomitant with the reduction of dioxygen and oxidation of a reducing agent probably ascorbate. The reaction gives ethylene, CO(2), cyanide and two water molecules. A model including the mononuclear iron complex with ACC in the first coordination sphere was used to study the details of O-O bond cleavage and cyclopropane ring opening. Calculations imply that this unusual and complex reaction is triggered by a hydrogen atom abstraction step generating a radical on the amino nitrogen of ACC. Subsequently, cyclopropane ring opening followed by O-O bond heterolysis leads to a very reactive iron(IV)-oxo intermediate, which decomposes to ethylene and cyanoformate with very low energy barriers. The reaction is assisted by bicarbonate located in the second coordination sphere of the metal. 相似文献

1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic oxidase (ACCO) is a non-heme iron(II)-containing enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of the phytohormone ethylene, which regulates fruit ripening and flowering in plants. The active conformation of ACCO, and in particular that of the C-terminal part, remains unclear and open and closed conformations have been proposed. In this work, a combined experimental and computational study to understand the conformation and dynamics of the C-terminal part is reported. Site-directed spin-labeling coupled to electron paramagnetic resonance (SDSL-EPR) spectroscopy was used. Mutagenesis experiments were performed to generate active enzymes bearing two paramagnetic labels (nitroxide radicals) anchored on cysteine residues, one in the main core and one in the C-terminal part. Inter-spin distance distributions were measured by pulsed EPR spectroscopy and compared with the results of molecular dynamics simulations. The results reveal the existence of a flexibility of the C-terminal part. This flexibility generates several conformations of the C-terminal part of ACCO that correspond neither to the existing crystal structures nor to the modelled structures. This highly dynamic region of ACCO raises questions on its exact function during enzymatic activity. 相似文献

Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations have been used to study structural and dynamic properties of the resting, hydrogen peroxide adduct and compound II forms of cytochrome C peroxidase (CCP) and Artromyces ramosus peroxidase (ARP). MD simulations of CCP show that: (i) hydrogen peroxide might form an outer sphere complex within the active site of the enzyme before the coordination to the iron centre takes place; (ii) Trp51 and His52 residues play a crucial role in the recognition and binding of hydrogen peroxide, while Arg48 is not directly involved; (iii) distal histidine (His52) allows an easy proton 1,2 shift within the H2O2 molecule, while Arg48 is not expected to play a role as crucial as His52 in promoting the heterolytic O–O bond breaking; (iv) the large mobility (about 2 Å) of the side chain of Arg48 in the compound II form allows the formation of a hydrogen bond (H-bond) with the ferryl oxygen, which contributes to the stabilisation of such an intermediate. The active site of the ARP enzyme is characterised by structural and dynamic features slightly different from the CCP active site. In particular, (i) the outer sphere complex with hydrogen peroxide occurring in CCP is not observed in ARP because of the substitution of Trp51 of CCP with the more hydrophobic residue Phe55 of ARP; (ii) His56 and the carbonyl group of Arg52 are determinant in controlling the hydrogen peroxide binding and its orientation in the active site. In ARP, both H2O2 and His56 have orientation different than in CCP, but still suited for an easy 1,2 proton shift. (iii) Arg52 in ARP is on average more distant from the heme-iron than in CCP, but its relative orientation is suited to promote an easy cleavage of H2O2. (iv) In compound II form of ARP, the Arg52 side chain is too far from the oxy-ferryl group to form a hydrogen bond and therefore ARP looses a stabilising factor, which is present in the corresponding form of CCP. 相似文献

Optimized structures for the redox species of the diiron active site in [Fe]-hydrogenase as observed by FTIR and for species in the catalytic cycle for the reversible H(2) oxidation have been determined by density-functional calculations on the active site model, [(L)(CO)(CN)Fe(mu-PDT)(mu-CO)Fe(CO)(CN)(L')](q)(L = H(2)O, CO, H(2), H(-); PDT = SCH(2)CH(2)CH(2)S, L' = CH(3)S(-), CH(3)SH; q = 0, 1-, 2-, 3-). Analytical DFT frequencies on model complexes (mu-PDT)Fe(2)(CO)(6) and [(mu-PDT)Fe(2)(CO)(4)(CN)(2)](2)(-) are used to calibrate the calculated CN(-) and CO frequencies against the measured FTIR bands in these model compounds. By comparing the predicted CN(-) and CO frequencies from DFT frequency calculations on the active site model with the observed bands of D. vulgaris [Fe]-hydrogenase under various conditions, the oxidation states and structures for the diiron active site are proposed. The fully oxidized, EPR-silent form is an Fe(II)-Fe(II) species. Coordination of H(2)O to the empty site in the enzyme's diiron active center results in an oxidized inactive form (H(2)O)Fe(II)-Fe(II). The calculations show that reduction of this inactive form releases the H(2)O to provide an open coordination site for H(2). The partially oxidized active state, which has an S = (1)/(2) EPR signal, is an Fe(I)-Fe(II) species. Fe(I)-Fe(I) species with and without bridging CO account for the fully reduced, EPR-silent state. For this fully reduced state, the species without the bridging CO is slightly more stable than the structure with the bridging CO. The correlation coefficient between the predicted CN(-) and CO frequencies for the proposed model species and the measured CN(-) and CO frequencies in the enzyme is 0.964. The proposed species are also consistent with the EPR, ENDOR, and M?ssbauer spectroscopies for the enzyme states. Our results preclude the presence of Fe(III)-Fe(II) or Fe(III)-Fe(III) states among those observed by FTIR. A proposed reaction mechanism (catalytic cycle) based on the DFT calculations shows that heterolytic cleavage of H(2) can occur from (eta(2)-H(2))Fe(II)-Fe(II) via a proton transfer to "spectator" ligands. Proton transfer to a CN(-) ligand is thermodynamically favored but kinetically unfavorable over proton transfer to the bridging S of the PDT. Proton migration from a metal hydride to a base (S, CN, or basic protein site) results in a two-electron reduction at the metals and explains in part the active site's dimetal requirement and ligand framework which supports low-oxidation-state metals. The calculations also suggest that species with a protonated Fe-Fe bond could be involved if the protein could accommodate such species. 相似文献

Copper-containing nitrite reductase harbors a type-1 and a type-2 Cu site. The former acts as the electron acceptor site of the enzyme, and the latter is the site of catalytic action. The effect of the methionine ligand on the reorganization energy of the type-1 site was explored by studying the electron-transfer kinetics between NiR (wild type (wt) and the variants Met150Gly and Met150Thr) with Fe(II)EDTA and Fe(II)HEDTA. The mutations increased the reorganization energy by 0.3 eV (30 kJ mol-1). A similar increase was found from pulse radiolysis experiments on the wt NIR and three variants (Met150Gly, Met150His, and Met150Thr). Binding of the nearby Met62 to the type-1 Cu site in Met150Gly (under influence of an allosteric effector) lowered the reorganization energy back to approximately the wt value. According to XRD data the structure of the reduced type-1 site in Met150Gly NiR in the presence of an allosteric effector is similar to that in the reduced wt NiR (solved to 1.85 A), compatible with the similarity in reorganization energy. 相似文献

Phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) is a tetrahydrobiopterin-dependent, nonheme iron enzyme that catalyzes the hydroxylation of L-Phe to L-Tyr in the rate-limiting step of phenylalanine catabolism. This reaction is tightly coupled in the wild-type enzyme to oxidation of the tetrahydropterin cofactor. Dysfunction of PAH activity in humans leads to the disease phenylketonuria (PKU). We have investigated two PKU-inducing mutants, Arg158Gln and Glu280Lys, using kinetic methods, magnetic circular dichrosim (MCD) spectroscopy, and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). Analysis of the products produced by the mutant enzymes shows that although both oxidize pterin at more than twice the rate of wild-type enzyme, these reactions are only approximately 20% coupled to production of L-Tyr. Previous MCD and XAS studies had demonstrated that the resting Fe(II) site is six-coordinate in the wild-type enzyme and converts to a five-coordinate site when both L-Phe and reduced pterin are present in the active site. Although the Arg158Gln mutant forms the five-coordinate site when both cosubstrates are bound, the Fe(II) site of the Glu280Lys mutant remains six-coordinate. These results provide insight into the PAH reaction and disease mechanism at a molecular level, indicating that the first step of the mechanism is formation of a peroxy-pterin species, which subsequently reacts with the Fe(II) site if the pterin is properly oriented for formation of an Fe-OO-pterin bridge and an open coordination position is available on the Fe(II). 相似文献

Cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) catalyzes the oxidation of cysteine to cysteine sulfinic acid, which is the first major step in cysteine catabolism in mammalian tissues. Crystal structures of mouse, rat, human and bacterial CDO have recently become available and provide significant mechanistic insights. Unlike most non-heme Fe(II) dioxygenases, coordination of the Fe in CDO deviates from the 2-His-1-carboxylate facial triad archetype and instead adopts a His3 facial triad. This change is expected to have an influence on oxygen activation by the catalytic site. The structures also reveal the presence of a cysteinyltyrosine (Tyr157-Cys93) post-translational modification near the active site. Kinetic studies of mutant CDOs reveal that the cysteine residue is less critical than the tyrosine for enzyme activity. Inconsistencies about the details of the active site and the nature of substrate binding exist and are discussed. Herein we review the structural biology along with relevant kinetics studies that have been conducted on CDO for insights into the reaction mechanism of this novel non-heme iron dioxygenase. 相似文献

The first step of iron biomineralization mediated by ferritin is the oxidation at the ferroxidase active site of two ferrous ions to a diferric oxo/hydroxo species. Metal-loaded ferritin crystals obtained by soaking crystals of frog ferritin in FeSO(4) and CuSO(4) solutions followed by flash freezing provided X-ray crystal structures of the tripositive iron and bipositive copper adducts at 2.7 and 2.8 ? resolution, respectively. At variance with the already available structures, the crystal form used in this study contains 24 independent subunits in the asymmetric unit permitting comparison between them. For the first time, the diferric species at the ferroxidase site is identified in ferritins from higher eukaryotes. Anomalous difference Fourier maps for crystals (iron crystal 1) obtained after long soaking times in FeSO(4) solution invariantly showed diferric species with a Fe-Fe average distance of 3.1 ± 0.1 ?, strongly indicative of the presence of a μ-oxo/hydroxo bridge between the irons; protein ligands for each iron ion (Fe1 and Fe2) were also unequivocally identified and found to be the same in all subunits. For copper bound ferritin, dicopper(II) centers are also observed. While copper at site 1 is essentially in the same position and has the same coordination environment as Fe1, copper at site 2 is displaced toward His54, now acting as a ligand; this results in an increased intermetal distance (4.3 ± 0.4 ?). His54 coordination and longer metal-metal distances might represent peculiar features of divalent cations at the ferroxidase site. This oxidation-dependent structural information may provide key features for the mechanistic pathway in ferritins from higher eukaryotes that drive uptake of bivalent cation and release of ferric products at the catalytic site. This mechanism is supported by the X-ray picture obtained after only 1 min of soaking in FeSO(4) solutions (iron crystal 2) which reasonably contain the metal at different oxidation states. Here two different di-iron species are trapped in the active site, with intermetal distances corresponding to those of the ferric dimer in crystal 1 and of the dicopper centers and corresponding rearrangement of the His54 side chain. 相似文献

The R2 subunit of class-Ia ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) from Escherichia coli (E. coli) contains a diiron active site. Starting from the apo-protein and Fe(II) in solution at low Fe(II)/apoR2 ratios, mononuclear Fe(II) binding is observed indicating possible different Fe(II) binding affinities for the two alternative sites. Further, based on their M?ssbauer spectroscopy and two-iron-isotope reaction experiments, Bollinger et al. (J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1997, 119, 5976-5977) proposed that the site Fe1, which bonds to Asp84, should be associated with the higher observed (57)Fe M?ssbauer quadrupole splitting (2.41 mm s(-1)) and lower isomer shift (0.45 mm s(-1)) in the Fe(III)Fe(III) state, site Fe2, which is further from Tyr122, should have a greater affinity for Fe(II) binding than site Fe1, and Fe(IV) in the intermediate X state should reside at site Fe2. In this paper, using density functional theory (DFT) incorporated with the conductor-like screening (COSMO) solvation model and with the finite-difference Poisson-Boltzmann self-consistent reaction field (PB-SCRF) methodologies, we have demonstrated that the observed large quadrupole splitting for the diferric state R2 does come from site Fe1(III) and it is mainly caused by the binding position of the carboxylate group of the Asp84 sidechain. Further, a series of active site clusters with mononuclear Fe(II) binding at either site Fe1 or Fe2 have been studied, which show that with a single dielectric medium outside the active site quantum region, there is no energetic preference for Fe(II) binding at one site over another. However, when including the explicit extended protein environment in the PB-SCRF model, the reaction field favors the Fe(II) binding at site Fe2 rather than at site Fe1 by ~9 kcal mol(-1). Therefore our calculations support the proposal of the previous M?ssbauer spectroscopy and two-iron-isotope reaction experiments by Bollinger et al. 相似文献

Hydrogen uptake in hydrogenase enzymes can be assayed by H/D exchange reactivity in H(2)/D(2)O or H(2)/D(2)/H(2)O mixtures. Diiron(I) complexes that serve as structural models for the active site of iron hydrogenase are not active in such isotope scrambling but serve as precursors to Fe(II)Fe(II) complexes that are functional models of [Fe]H(2)ase. Using the same experimental protocol as used previously for ((mu-H)(mu-pdt)[Fe(CO)(2)(PMe(3))](2)(+)), 1-H(+) (Zhao et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2001, 123, 9710), we now report the results of studies of ((mu-SMe)(mu-pdt)[Fe(CO)(2)(PMe(3))](2)(+)), 1-SMe(+), toward H/D exchange. The 1-SMe(+) complex can take up H(2) and catalyze the H/D exchange reaction in D(2)/H(2)O mixtures under photolytic, CO-loss conditions. Unlike 1-H(+), it does not catalyze H(2)/D(2) scrambling under anhydrous conditions. The molecular structure of 1-SMe(+) involves an elongated Fe.Fe separation, 3.11 A, relative to 2.58 A in 1-H(+). It is proposed that the strong SMe(-) bridging ligand results in catalytic activity localized on a single Fe(II) center, a scenario that is also a prominent possibility for the enzyme active site. The single requirement is an open site on Fe(II) available for binding of D(2) (or H(2)), followed by deprotonation by the external base H(2)O (or D(2)O). 相似文献

A combined synthetic/spectroscopic/computational approach has been employed to prepare and characterize a series of Fe(II)-thiolate complexes that model the square-pyramidal [Fe(II)(N(His))(4)(S(Cys))] structure of the reduced active site of superoxide reductases (SORs), a class of enzymes that detoxify superoxide in air-sensitive organisms. The high-spin (S = 2) Fe(II) complexes [(Me(4)cyclam)Fe(SC(6)H(4)-p-OMe)]OTf (2) and [FeL]PF(6) (3) (where Me(4)cyclam = 1,4,8,11-tetramethylcyclam and L is the pentadentate monoanion of 1-thioethyl-4,8,11-trimethylcyclam) were synthesized and subjected to structural, magnetic, and electrochemical characterization. X-ray crystallographic studies confirm that 2 and 3 possess an N(4)S donor set similar to that found for the SOR active site and reveal molecular geometries intermediate between square pyramidal and trigonal bipyramidal for both complexes. Electronic absorption, magnetic circular dichroism (MCD), and variable-temperature variable-field MCD (VTVH-MCD) spectroscopies were utilized, in conjunction with density functional theory (DFT) and semiemperical INDO/S-CI calculations, to probe the ground and excited states of complexes 2 and 3, as well as the previously reported Fe(II) SOR model [(L(8)py(2))Fe(SC(6)H(4)-p-Me)]BF(4) (1) (where L(8)py(2) is a tetradentate pyridyl-appended diazacyclooctane macrocycle). These studies allow for a detailed interpretation of the S-->Fe(II) charge transfer transitions observed in the absorption and MCD spectra of complexes 1-3 and provide significant insights into the nature of Fe(II)-S bonding in complexes with axial thiolate ligation. Of the three models investigated, complex 3 exhibits an absorption spectrum that is particularly similar to the one reported for the reduced SOR enzyme (SOR(red)), suggesting that this model accurately mimics key elements of the electronic structure of the enzyme active site; namely, highly covalent Fe-S pi- and sigma-interactions. These spectral similarities are shown to arise from the fact that 3 contains an alkyl thiolate tethered to the equatorial cyclam ring, resulting in a thiolate orientation that is very similar to the one adopted by the Cys residue in the SOR(red) active site. Possible implications of our results with respect to the electronic structure and reactivity of SOR(red) are discussed. 相似文献

Iron has been implicated in Alzheimer's disease, but until now no direct proof of Fe(II) binding to the amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) has been reported. We used NMR to evidence Fe(II) coordination to full-length Aβ40 and truncated Aβ16 peptides at physiological pH and to show that the Fe(II) binding site is located in the first 16 amino-acid residues. Fe(II) caused selective broadening of some NMR peaks that was dependent on the Fe:Aβ stoichiometry and temperature. Analysis of Fe(II) broadening effect in the (1)H, (13)C, and 2D NMR data established that Asp1, Glu3, the three His, but not Tyr10 nor Met35 are the residues mainly involved in Fe(II) coordination. 相似文献

Umecyanin (UMC) is a type 1 copper-containing protein which originates from horseradish roots and belongs to the stellacyanin subclass of the phytocyanins, a ubiquitous family of plant cupredoxins. The crystal structures of Cu(II) and Cu(I) UMC have been determined at 1.9 and 1.8 A, respectively. The protein has an overall fold similar to those of other phytocyanins. At the active site the cupric ion is coordinated by the N(delta1) atoms of His44 and His90, the S(gamma) of Cys85, and the O(epsilon)(1) of Gln95 in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. Both His ligands are solvent exposed and are surrounded by nonpolar and polar side chains on the protein surface. Thus, UMC does not possess a distinct hydrophobic patch close to the active site in contrast to almost all other cupredoxins. UMC has a large surface acidic patch situated approximately 10-30 A from the active site. The structure of Cu(I) UMC is the first determined for a reduced phytocyanin and demonstrates that the coordination environment of the cuprous ion is more trigonal pyramidal. This subtle change in geometry is primarily due to the Cu-N(delta1)(His44) and Cu-O(epsilon1)(Gln95) bond lengths increasing from 2.0 and 2.3 A in Cu(II) UMC to 2.2 and 2.5 A, respectively, in the reduced form, as a consequence of slight rotations of the His44 and Gln95 side chains. The limited structural changes upon redox interconversion at the active site of this stellacyanin are analogous to those observed in a typical type 1 copper site with an axial Met ligand and along with its surface features suggest a role for UMC in interprotein electron transfer. 相似文献

Each beta-protomer of the small betabeta subunit of Escherichia coli ribonucleotide reductase (R2) contains a binuclear iron cluster with inequivalent binding sites: Fe(A) and Fe(B). In anaerobic Fe(II) titrations of apoprotein under standard buffer conditions, we show that the majority of the protein binds only one Fe(II) atom per betabeta subunit. Additional iron occupation can be achieved upon exposure to O2 or in high glycerol buffers. The differential binding affinity of the A- and B-sites allows us to produce heterobinuclear Mn(II)Fe(II) and novel Mn(III)Fe(III) clusters within a single beta-protomer of R2. The oxidized species are produced with H2O2 addition. We demonstrate that no significant exchange of metal occurs between the A- and B-sites, and thus the binding of the first metal is under kinetic control, as has been suggested previously. The binding of first Fe(II) atom to the active site in a beta-protomer (betaI) induces a global protein conformational change that inhibits access of metal to the active site in the other beta-protomer (betaII). The binding of the same Fe(II) atom also induces a local effect at the active site in betaI-protomer, which lowers the affinity for metal in the A-site. The mixed metal FeMn species are quantitatively characterized with electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. The previously reported catalase activity of Mn2(II)R2 is shown not to be associated with Mn. 相似文献

The O(2) activating mononuclear nonheme iron enzymes generally have a common facial triad (two histidine and one carboxylate (Asp or Glu) residue) ligating Fe(II) at the active site. Exceptions to this motif have recently been identified in nonheme enzymes, including a 3His triad in the diketone cleaving dioxygenase Dke1. This enzyme is used to explore the role of the facial triad in directing reactivity. A combination of spectroscopic studies (UV-vis absorption, MCD, and resonance Raman) and DFT calculations is used to define the nature of the binding of the α-keto acid, 4-hydroxyphenlpyruvate (HPP), to the active site in Dke1 and the origin of the atypical cleavage (C2-C3 instead of C1-C2) pattern exhibited by this enzyme in the reaction of α-keto acids with dioxygen. The reduced charge of the 3His triad induces α-keto acid binding as the enolate dianion, rather than the keto monoanion, found for α-keto acid binding to the 2His/1 carboxylate facial triad enzymes. The mechanistic insight from the reactivity of Dke1 with the α-keto acid substrate is then extended to understand the reaction mechanism of this enzyme with its native substrate, acac. This study defines a key role for the 2His/1 carboxylate facial triad in α-keto acid-dependent mononuclear nonheme iron enzymes in stabilizing the bound α-keto acid as a monoanion for its decarboxylation to provide the two additional electrons required for O(2) activation. 相似文献

Protonation of the [Fe]-hydrogenase model complex (mu-pdt)[Fe(CO)(2)(PMe(3))](2) (pdt = SCH(2)CH(2)CH(2)S) produces a species with a high field (1)H NMR resonance, isolated as the stable [(mu-H)(mu-pdt)[Fe(CO)(2)(PMe(3))](2)](+)[PF(6)](-) salt. Structural characterization found little difference in the 2Fe2S butterfly cores, with Fe.Fe distances of 2.555(2) and 2.578(1) A for the Fe-Fe bonded neutral species and the bridging hydride species, respectively (Zhao, X.; Georgakaki, I. P.; Miller, M. L.; Yarbrough, J. C.; Darensbourg, M. Y. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2001, 123, 9710). Both are similar to the average Fe.Fe distance found in structures of three Fe-only hydrogenase active site 2Fe2S clusters: 2.6 A. A series of similar complexes (mu-edt)-, (mu-o-xyldt)-, and (mu-SEt)(2)[Fe(CO)(2)(PMe(3))](2) (edt = SCH(2)CH(2)S; o-xyldt = SCH(2)C(6)H(4)CH(2)S), (mu-pdt)[Fe(CO)(2)(PMe(2)Ph)](2), and their protonated derivatives likewise show uniformity in the Fe-Fe bond lengths of the neutral complexes and Fe.Fe distances in the cationic bridging hydrides. The positions of the PMe(3) and PMe(2)Ph ligands are dictated by the orientation of the S-C bonds in the (mu-SRS) or (mu-SR)(2) bridges and the subsequent steric hindrance of R. The Fe(II)(mu-H)Fe(II) complexes were compared for their ability to facilitate H/D exchange reactions, as have been used as assays of H(2)ase activity. In a reaction that is promoted by light but inhibited by CO, the [(mu-H)(mu-pdt)[Fe(CO)(2)(PMe(3))](2)](+) complex shows H/D exchange activity with D(2), producing [(mu-D)(mu-pdt)[Fe(CO)(2)(PMe(3))](2)](+) in CH(2)Cl(2) and in acetone, but not in CH(3)CN. In the presence of light, H/D scrambling between D(2)O and H(2) is also promoted by the Fe(II)(mu-H)Fe(II) catalyst. The requirement of an open site suggests that the key step in the reactions involves D(2) or H(2) binding to Fe(II) followed by deprotonation by the internal hydride base, or by external water. As indicated by similar catalytic efficiencies of members of the series, the nature of the bridging thiolates has little influence on the reactions. Comparison to [Fe]H(2)ase enzyme active site redox levels suggests that at least one Fe(II) must be available for H(2) uptake while a reduced or an electron-rich Fe(I)Fe(I) metal-metal bonded redox level is required for proton uptake. 相似文献
