Popis: | To examine inhibitor binding to an iron site resembling that of the metalloenzyme nitrile hydratase (NHase), a coordinatively unsaturated, five-coordinate FeIII thiolate complex was synthesized, and its reactivity examined. Ferricinium hexafluorophosphate induced oxidation of gem-dimethyl-protected [FeIIS2Me2N3(Pr,Pr)] affords the chiral, five-coordinate complex [FeIIIS2Me2N3(Pr,Pr)]+ (2) in reasonable yields. The magnetic properties and EPR of 2 are consistent with an S = 1/2 ground state. This unusual spin state, in conjunction with the low coordination number, of 2 result in unusually short Fe−S bonds (2.15(2) A). Ligand constraints distort the S−Fe−N angles in 2 and create an open (132.3(1)°) reactive site. Azide binds to this site to afford a model for the azide-inhibited form of NHase [FeIIIS2Me2N3(Pr,Pr)(N3)] (3). In MeOH azide binds reversibly, whereas in MeCN it binds irreversibly. This demonstrates that the secondary coordination sphere (i.e., the solvent, or possibly a protein binding pocket) c... |
