Abstract
A novel dinucleating bis(pyrazolyl)methane ligand was developed for tyrosinase model systems. After ligand synthesis, the corresponding Cu(I) complex was synthesized and upon oxygenation, formation of a µ-η2:η2 peroxido complex could be observed and monitored using UV/Vis-spectroscopy. Due to the high stability of this species even at room temperature, a molecular structure of the complex could be characterized via single-crystal XRD. Additional to its promising stability, the peroxido complex showed catalytic tyrosinase activity which was investigated via UV/Vis-spectroscopy. Products of the catalytic conversion could be isolated and characterized and the ligand could be successfully recycled after catalysis experiments. Furthermore, the peroxido complex was reduced by reductants with different reduction potentials. The characteristics of the electron transfer reactions were investigated with the help of the Marcus relation. The combination of the high stability and catalytic activity of the peroxido complex with the new dinucleating ligand, enables the shift of oxygenation reactions for selected substrates towards green chemistry, which is furthered by the efficient ligand recycling capability.

Abstract
The CuI salts [Cu(CH3CN)4]PF and [Cu(oDFB)2]PF with the very weakly coordinating anion Al(OC(CF3)3)4− (PF) as well as [Cu(NEt3)2]PF comprising the unique, linear bis‐triethylamine complex [Cu(NEt3)2]+ were synthesized and examined as catalysts for the conversion of monophenols to o‐quinones. The activities of these CuI salts towards monooxygenation of 2,4‐di‐tert‐butylphenol (DTBP‐H) were compared to those of [Cu(CH3CN)4]X salts with “classic” anions (BF4−, OTf−, PF6−), revealing an anion effect on the activity of the catalyst and a ligand effect on the reaction rate. The reaction is drastically accelerated by employing CuII‐semiquinone complexes as catalysts, indicating that formation of a CuII complex precedes the actual catalytic cycle. This result and other experimental observations show that with these systems the oxygenation of monophenols does not follow a dinuclear, but a mononuclear pathway analogous to that of topaquinone cofactor biosynthesis in amine oxidase.

Influence of the amine donor on hybrid guanidine-stabilized Bis(μ-oxido) dicopper(III) complexes and their tyrosinase-like oxygenation activity towards polycyclic aromatic alcohols. J Inorg Biochem 2021; 224:111541. [PMID: 34416481 DOI: 10.1016/j.jinorgbio.2021.111541] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2021] [Revised: 06/30/2021] [Accepted: 07/11/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
The tyrosinase-like activity of hybrid guanidine-stabilized bis(μ-oxido) dicopper(III) complexes [Cu2(μ-O)2(L)2](X)2 (L = 2-{2-((Diethylamino)methyl)phenyl}-1,1,3,3-tetramethylguanidine (TMGbenzNEt2, L2) and 2-{2-((Di-isopropylamino)methyl)phenyl}-1,1,3,3-tetramethylguanidine (TMGbenzNiPr2, L3); X = PF6-, BF4-, CF3SO3-) is described. New aromatic hybrid guanidine amine ligands were developed with varying amine donor function. Their copper(I) complexes were analyzed towards their ability to activate dioxygen in the presence of different weakly coordinating anions. The resulting bis(μ-oxido) species were characterized at low temperatures by UV/Vis and resonance Raman spectroscopy, cryo-ESI mass spectrometry and density functional theory calculations. Small structural changes in the ligand sphere were found to influence the characteristic ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) features of the bis(μ-oxido) species, correlating a redshift in the UV/Vis spectrum with weaker N-donor function of the ligand. DFT calculations elucidated the influence of the steric and electronic properties of the bis(μ-oxido) species leading to a higher twist of the Cu2O2 plane against the CuN2 plane and a stretching of the Cu2O2 core. Despite their moderate stability at -100 °C, the bis(μ-oxido) complexes exhibited a remarkable activity in catalytic oxygenation reactions of polycyclic aromatic alcohols. Further the selectivity of the catalyst in the hydroxylation reactions of challenging phenolic substrates is not changed despite an increasing shield of the reactive bis(μ-oxido) core. The generated quinones were found to form exclusively bent phenazines, providing a promising strategy to access tailored phenazine derivatives.

Abstract
Inspired by the efficiency of natural enzymes in organic transformation reactions, the development of synthetic catalysts for oxygenation and oxidation reactions under mild conditions still remains challenging. Tyrosinases serve as archetype when it comes to hydroxylation reactions involving molecular oxygen. We herein present new copper(I) guanidine halide complexes, capable of the activation of molecular oxygen at room temperature. The formation of the reactive bis(µ-oxido) dicopper(III) species and the influence of the anion are investigated by UV/Vis spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and density functional theory. We highlight the catalytic hydroxylation activity towards diverse polycyclic aromatic alcohols under mild reaction conditions. The selective formation of reactive quinones provides a promising tool to design phenazine derivatives for medical applications.

Abstract
The enzyme tyrosinase contains a reactive side-on peroxo dicopper(II) center as catalytically active species in C-H oxygenation reactions. The tyrosinase activity of the isomeric bis(μ-oxo) dicopper(III) form has been discussed controversially. The synthesis of bis(μ-oxo) dicopper(III) species [Cu2 (μ-O)2 (L1)2 ](X)2 ([O1](X)2 , X=PF6 - , BF4 - , OTf- , ClO4 - ), stabilized by the new hybrid guanidine ligand 2-{2-((dimethylamino)methyl)phenyl}-1,1,3,3-tetramethylguanidine (L1), and its characterization by UV/Vis, Raman, and XAS spectroscopy, as well as cryo-UHR-ESI mass spectrometry, is described. We highlight selective oxygenation of a plethora of phenolic substrates mediated by [O1](PF6 )2 , which results in mono- and bicyclic quinones and provides an attractive strategy for designing new phenazines. The selectivity is predicted by using the Fukui function, which is hereby introduced into tyrosinase model chemistry. Our bioinspired catalysis harnesses molecular dioxygen for organic transformations and achieves a substrate diversity reaching far beyond the scope of the enzyme.
