Hydrogenases metal-free enzyme

As discussed previously, superelectrophilic activation in biological systems has been found even with a metal-free hydrogenase enzyme found in methanogenic archea, an enzymatic system that converts CO2 to methane.57 It was found that /V5./V10-menthyl tetrahydromethanopterin (42) undergoes an enzyme-catalyzed reaction with H2 by hydride transfer to the pro-R position and release of a proton to form the reduced product (43 eq 36). [Pg.93]

As described in Chapter 2, a unique gitonic superelectrophile is considered to be involved in an enzyme system that converts CO2 to methane. Berkessel and Thauer have studied this metal-free hydrogenase enzyme from methanogenic archaea and a mechanism is proposed involving activation through a vicinal-superelectrophilic system (eq 34).50... [Pg.148]

The metal-free hydrogenase enzyme system was also studied by theoretical calculations.52 This study involved the reactions of two model systems (115 and 116) with molecular hydrogen (Table 3). Cation 115... [Pg.149]

Ge2-alkyne analogs to give a mixture of Gc2 and primary germane products (Scheme 11.4) has been described by Power and coworkers [23]. It is also noteworthy that a unique metal-free hydrogenase has been identified from methanogenic archaea. This enzyme catalyzes reactions with H2 [24, 25], and it is suggested that a folate-Hke cofactor is important in the the reversible activation or liberation of H2 [26, 27]. [Pg.263]
