Ferric center

Pseudomonas sp. strain P.J. 874 grown with tyrosine carried out dioxygenation of 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate to 2,5-dihydroxyphenylacetate accompanied by an NIH shift (Lindstedt et al. 1977). The involvement of a high-spin ferric center coordinated with tyrosine is conclusively revealed in the primary structure of the enzyme (Riietschi et al. 1992). [Pg.426]

When, under identical conditions, ascorbic acid was used instead of mercaptoethanol, the reaction gave products with 3°/2° carbon reactivity of 0.28-0.42, suggestive of an autoxidation process (12). Furthermore, the kinetics of the reaction are biphasic for 2-mercaptoethanol and monophasic for ascorbic acid. These kinetics are consistent with the generation of a new catalytic system by the coordination of the thiol to the ferric center(s). For either reductant, bleaching of the complex was observed within minutes in the absence of substrate. [Pg.95]

Kitajima et al. (21) also reported a more efficient catalyst through a serendipitous modification of complex 2. They observed that an increase in the catalytic activity (by a factor of 1.5) occurred when hexafluo-roacetyl acetone (hfacac) was used instead of acetic acid. The reaction between 2 and hfacac produced [ Fe(HBpz3)(hfacac) 20], 4 in 50-60% yield that was structurally characterized to reveal a ferric dimer with a single n-oxo bridge (21). Each iron center is in a six-coordinate N303 environment. The two octahedral units are more distorted in this coordination environment than that of 2 the FeOFe unit is bent with an angle of 169.4°. Each ferric center has one hfacac ligand bound in a bidentate mode. [Pg.97]

The second question is about how the the high-valent oxo intermediate forms in both enzymes. For catalase and peroxidase, the evidence indicates that hydrogen peroxide binds to the ferric center and then undergoes heterolysis at the... [Pg.298]

Mossbauer spectra of native RRB2 reveals two quadrupole doublets of equal intensity with 8 values of 0.5 mm s", which are typical of high-spin ferric centers and AEq values of 1.65 and 2.45 mm s" (26). These large quadrupole splittings are expected of (p,-oxo)diiron(III) complexes. The appearance of two iron centers with distinct AEq values was difficult to rationalize in the RRB2 model proposed by Reichard and co-workers... [Pg.120]

Two intermediates have been detected in the reaction of catechol 1,2-dioxygenase with pyrogallol and dioxygen [88]. The active site in this enzyme has been studied by NMR spectroscopy a high-spin ferric center gives rise to paramagnetically shifted resonances [89]. [Pg.273]

Figure 6 shows the NMR spectra of the model complexes and 1,2-CTD after coordination of catechol and phenols [68-70]. In the case of model monodentate catecholate complexes, the methyl resonance appears at 100 ppm downfield if the 0(1) oxygen is coordinated to the iron and at -30 ppm upfield if the 0(2) oxygen is coordinated. The same shifts are observed for methyl-substituted phenols. For chelated catecholates, the methyl resonance appears at 50 ppm downfield. In the case of CTD, 4-methylcatecholate species exhibit a peak at 100 ppm downfield, indicating that 4-methylcatechol coordinates to the ferric center solely through the 0(1) oxygen, as 6 rather than 7 in Fig. 5. On the other hand, no methyl resonance has been observed with 3-methylcatechol. Considering that 3,6-dimethylcatechol exhibits only one peak near at -25 ppm, the coordination through 0(2) as 8 is suggested for 3-methylcatecholatoiron...

The character of the coordinated catechols has been studied by Mossbauer spectroscopy [38]. Since the value of A is a measure of the hyperfine interaction of the iron electron with Fe, it reflects the covalency of the metal-ligand bands. The value of A/gnPn for the catechol complex is -18.9 T, that is the smallest observed for a dioxygenase complex -20.8 T for the phenol complex and -20.0 T for the thiophenol complex. The lowest values are explained by a greater delocalization of unpaired spin density away from the ferric center onto the catechol, generating a radical character of the catechol. The unpaired spin density delocalization is consistent with the paramagnetic shifts of protons of the catecholate ligand observed by NMR. [Pg.34]

In the case of 3,4-PCD, formation of a binary ES complex has also been noticed by the optical [71, 72] and EPR [72] spectroscopic changes. The decrease in the peak intensity of the characteristic EPR signal at g = 4.31 upon addition of PCA to 3,4-PCD has been explained by the ligand field modification of the ferric center rather than the valence change from the ferric to ferrous state [72]. This has been confirmed by further EPR studies [40, 56, 60, 73, 74]. [Pg.34]
