Popis: |
Molecular mechanics (MM) (empirical force field) calculations of iron chelates (siderophores) with potential pharmacological and agrochemical applications are reported. Excellent agreement was found between the calculated (MM) and observed (X-ray) geometries of a siderophore having three catechol side arms (ferric bicapped TRENCAM). The complexing ability of the bidentate subunits catechol, hydroxamate and oxalic acid as determined with MM and physico-chemical methods, is reported and discussed. The geometries of Fetris(hydroxamate) and of desferrioxamine E are compared. Heptacoordinated aqua-EDTA-iron complexes have a capped trigonal prism geometrical arrangement similar to the one observed in the crystal structure. The parameters for iron (Fe(III)) and Fe-O or Fe-N (to complement the MM2 parameters) are given. |
