Bioorganometallics

The exceptional ability of bioorganometallics to act as catalysts has not yet been widely explored (101). Half-sandwich ruthenium... 

We started this section by stating that the advent of bioorganometallics provides the medicinal chemist with access to new types of reactivity and therefore with new opportunities for anticancer drug design. Our studies on the ruthenium-arene...

One large class of non-heme iron-containing biomolecules involves proteins and enzymes containing iron-sulfur clusters. Iron-sulfur clusters are described in Sections 1.7 (Bioorganometallic Chemistry) and 1.8 (Electron Transfer) as well as in Section 3.6 (Mossbauer Spectroscopy). See especially Table 3.2 and the descriptive examples discussed in Section 3.6.4. Iron-sulfur proteins include rubredoxins, ferrodoxins, and the enzymes aconitase and nitrogenase. The nitrogenase enzyme was the subject of Chapter 6 in the hrst edition of this text—see especially Section 6.3 for a discussion of iron-sulfur clusters. In this...
