Metastable anions of dinitrobenzene: resonances for electron attachment and kinetic energy release

Attachment of free, low-energy electrons to dinitrobenzene (DNB) in the gas phase leads to DNB(-) as well as several fragment anions. DNB(-), (DNB-H)(-), (DNB-NO)(-), (DNB-2NO)(-), and (DNB-NO(2))(-) are found to undergo metastable (unimolecular) dissociation. A rich pattern of resonances in the yield of these metastable reactions versus electron energy is observed; some resonances are highly isomer-specific. Most metastable reactions are accompanied by large average kinetic energy releases (KER) that range from 0.5 to 1.32 eV, typical of complex rearrangement reactions, but (1,3-DNB-H)(-) features a resonance with a KER of only 0.06 eV for loss of NO. (1,3-DNB-NO)(-) offers a rare example of a sequential metastable reaction, namely, loss of NO followed by loss of CO to yield C(5)H(4)O(-) with a large KER of 1.32 eV. The G4(MP2) method is applied to compute adiabatic electron affinities and reaction energies for several of the observed metastable channels.     

Rapid freeze-quench ENDOR study of chloroperoxidase compound I: the site of the radical

The classical heme-monooxygenase active intermediate, compound I (Cpd-I), incorporates a heme which is oxidized by two equivalents above the resting ferric state, one equivalent associated with a ferryl center, [Fe=O]2+ (FeS = 1), and the other with an active-site radical (RS = 1/2). Theoretical calculations on models of a Cpd-I with a thiolato axial ligand have presented divergent views about its electronic structure. In one picture, the radical is on the porphyrin; in the other, it is on the sulfur. In this report, ENDOR spectroscopy answers the question, does Cpd-I of the enzyme chloroperoxidase contain a porphyrin pi-cation radical or an iron-bound cysteinyl radical: the radical is predominantly on the porphyrin, with spin density on sulfur having an upper bound, rhoS 相似文献   

Kinetics of two-electron oxidations by the compound I derivative of chloroperoxidase, a model for cytochrome P450 oxidants

[structure: see text] Rate constants for two-electron oxidation reactions of Compound I from chloroperoxidase (CPO) with a variety of substrates were measured by stopped-flow kinetic techniques. The thiolate ligand of CPO Compound I activates the iron-oxo species with the result that oxidation reactions are 2 to 3 orders of magnitude faster than oxidations by model iron(IV)-oxo porphyrin radical cations containing weaker binding counterions.
