Abstract
Reduced dithiolene ligands are bound to high valent Mo centers in the active site of the oxotransferase family of enzymes. Related model complexes have been studied with great insight by Prof. Holm and his colleagues. This study focuses on the other limit of dithiolene chemistry: an investigation of the 2-electron oxidized dithiolene bound to low-valent late transition metal (TM) ions (ZnII, CuI, and CuII). The bonding descriptions of the oxidized dithiolene [N,N-dimethyl piperazine 2,3-dithione (Me2Dt0)] complexes are probed using S K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and the results are correlated to density functional theory (DFT) calculations. These experimentally supported calculations are then extended to explain the different geometric structures of the three complexes. The ZnII(Me2Dt0)2 complex has only ligand-ligand repulsion so it is stabilized at the D2d symmetry limit. The CuI(Me2Dt0)2 complex has additional weak backbonding thus distorts somewhat from D2d toward D2h symmetry. The CuII(Me2Dt0)2 complex has a strong σ donor bond that leads to both a large Jahn-Teller stabilization to D2h and an additional covalent contribution to the geometry. The combined strong stabilization results in the square planar, D2h structure. This study quantifies the competition between the ligand-ligand repulsion and the change in electronic structures in determining the final geometric structures of the oxidized dithiolene complexes, and provides quantitative insights into the Jahn-Teller stabilization energy and its origin.

Abstract
The synthesis and structural determination of four tungsten alkyne complexes coordinated by the bio-inspired S,N-donor ligand 2-(4',4'-dimethyloxazoline-2'-yl)thiophenolate (S-Phoz) is presented. A previously established protocol that involved the reaction of the respective alkyne with the bis-carbonyl precursor [W(CO)2 (S-Phoz)2 ] was used for the complexes [W(CO)(C2 R2 )(S-Phoz)2 ] (R=H, 1 a; Me, 1 b; Ph, 1 c). Oxidation with pyridine-N-oxide gave the corresponding W-oxo species [WO(C2 R2 )(S-Phoz)2 ] (R=H, 2 a; Me, 2 b; Ph, 2 c). All W-oxo-alkyne complexes (2 a, b, c) were found to be capable of alkyne release upon light irradiation to afford five-coordinate [WO(S-Phoz)2 ] (3). The photoinduced release of the alkyne ligand was studied in detail by in situ 1 H NMR measurements, which revealed correlation of the photodissociation rate constant (2 b>2 a>2 c) with the elongation of the alkyne C≡C bond in the molecular structures. Oxidation of [WO(S-Phoz)2 ] (3) with pyridine-N-oxide yielded [WO2 (S-Phoz)2 ] (4), which shows highly fluxional behavior in solution. Variable-temperature 1 H NMR spectroscopy revealed three isomeric forms with respect to the ligand arrangement versus each other. Furthermore, compound 4 rearranges to tetranuclear oxo compound [W4 O4 (μ-O)6 (S-Phoz)4 ] (5) and dinuclear [{WO(μ-O)(S-Phoz)}2 ] (6) over time. The latter two were identified by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses.

Abstract
Reaction of 3,6-disubstituted-1,2,4,5-tetrazines with water and PEt3 forms the corresponding 1,4-dihydrotetrazine and OPEt3 . Thus PEt3 , as a stoichiometric reductant, reduces water, and the resulting two reducing equivalents serve to doubly hydrogenate the tetrazine. A variety of possible initial interactions between electron-deficient tetrazine and electron-rich PR3 , including a charge transfer complex, were evaluated by density functional calculations which revealed that the energy of all these make them spectroscopically undetectable at equilibrium, but one of these is nevertheless suggested as the intermediate in the observed redox reaction. The relationship of this to the Mitsunobu reaction, which absorbs the components of water evolved in the conversion of alcohol and carboxylic acid to ester, with desirable inversion at the alcohol carbon, is discussed. This enables a modified Mitsunobu reaction, with tetrazine replacing EtO2 CN=NCO2 Et (DEAD), which has the advantage that dihydrotetrazine can be recycled to tetrazine by oxidation with O2 , something impossible with the hydrogenated DEAD. For this tetrazine version, a betaine-like intermediate is undetectable, but its protonated form is characterized, including by X-ray structure and NMR spectroscopy.

Abstract
Sulfur K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been used to determine the electronic structures of two complexes [Mo(IV)O(bdt)2](2-) and [Mo(VI)O2(bdt)2](2-) (bdt = benzene-1,2-dithiolate(2-)) that relate to the reduced and oxidized forms of sulfite oxidase (SO). These are compared with those of previously studied dimethyl sulfoxide reductase (DMSOr) models. DFT calculations supported by the data are extended to evaluate the reaction coordinate for oxo transfer to a phosphite ester substrate. Three possible transition states are found with the one at lowest energy, stabilized by a P-S interaction, in good agreement with experimental kinetics data. Comparison of both oxo transfer reactions shows that in DMSOr, where the oxo is transferred from the substrate to the metal ion, the oxo transfer induces electron transfer, while in SO, where the oxo transfer is from the metal site to the substrate, the electron transfer initiates oxo transfer. This difference in reactivity is related to the difference in frontier molecular orbitals (FMO) of the metal-oxo and substrate-oxo bonds. Finally, these experimentally related calculations are extended to oxo transfer by sulfite oxidase. The presence of only one dithiolene at the enzyme active site selectively activates the equatorial oxo for transfer, and allows facile structural reorganization during turnover.

Abstract
The synthesis of the Lewis acid-base adducts of B(C6F5)3 and BF3 with [DAAmRe(O)(X)] DAAm = N,N-bis(2-arylaminoethyl)methylamine; aryl = C6F5 (X = Me, 1, COCH3, 2, Cl, 3) as well as their diamidopyridine (DAP) (DAP=(2,6-bis((mesitylamino)methyl)pyridine) analogues, [DAPRe(O)(X)] (X = Me, 4, Cl, 5, I, 6, and COCH3,7), are described. In these complexes the terminal oxo ligands act as nucleophiles. In addition we also show that stoichiometric reactions between 3 and triarylphosphine (PAr3) result in the formation of triarylphosphine oxide (OPAr3). The electronic dependence of this reaction was studied by comparing the rates of oxygen atom transfer for various para-substituted triaryl phosphines in the presence of CO. From these experiments a reaction constant ρ = -0.29 was obtained from the Hammett plot. This suggests that the oxygen atom transfer reaction is consistent with nucleophilic attack of phosphorus on an electrophilic metal oxo. To the best of our knowledge, these are the first examples of mono-oxo d(2) metal complexes in which the oxo ligand exhibits ambiphilic reactivity.

Abstract
Formaldehyde ferredoxin oxidoreductase is a tungsten-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative degradation of formaldehyde to formic acid. The molybdenum ion can be incorporated into the active site to displace the tungsten ion, but is without activity. Density functional calculations have been employed to understand the incapacitation of the enzyme caused by molybdenum substitution. The calculations show that the enzyme with molybdenum (Mo-FOR) has higher redox potential than that with tungsten, which makes the formation of the Mo(VI)=O complex endothermic by 14 kcal/mol. Following our previously suggested mechanism for this enzyme, the formaldehyde substrate oxidation was also investigated for Mo-FOR using the same quantum-mechanics-only model, except for the displacement of tungsten by molybdenum. The calculations demonstrate that formaldehyde oxidation occurs via a sequential two-step mechanism. Similarly to the tungsten-catalyzed reaction, the Mo(VI)=O species performs the nucleophilic attack on the formaldehyde carbon, followed by proton transfer in concert with two-electron reduction of the metal center. The first step is rate-limiting, with a total barrier of 28.2 kcal/mol. The higher barrier is mainly due to the large energy penalty for the formation of the Mo(VI)=O species.

Abstract
Reaction coordinates for oxo transfer from the substrates Me(3)NO, Me(2)SO, and Me(3)PO to the biologically relevant Mo(IV) bis-dithiolene complex [Mo(OMe)(mdt)(2)](-) where mdt = 1,2-dimethyl-ethene-1,2-dithiolate(2-), and from Me(2)SO to the analogous W(IV) complex, have been calculated using density functional theory. In each case, the reaction first proceeds through a transition state (TS1) to an intermediate with substrate weakly bound, followed by a second transition state (TS2) around which breaking of the substrate X-O bond begins. By analyzing the energetic contributions to each barrier, it is shown that the nature of the substrate and metal determines which transition state controls the rate-determining step of the reaction.

Abstract
The electronic structure of a genuine paramagnetic des-oxo Mo(V) catalytic intermediate in the reaction of dimethyl sulfoxide reductase (DMSOR) with (CH(3))(3)NO has been probed by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), electronic absorption, and magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectroscopies. EPR spectroscopy reveals rhombic g- and A-tensors that indicate a low-symmetry geometry for this intermediate and a singly occupied molecular orbital that is dominantly metal centered. The excited-state spectroscopic data were interpreted in the context of electronic structure calculations, and this has resulted in a full assignment of the observed MCD and electronic absorption bands, a detailed understanding of the metal-ligand bonding scheme, and an evaluation of the Mo(V) coordination geometry and Mo(V)-S(dithiolene) covalency as it pertains to the stability of the intermediate and electron-transfer regeneration. Finally, the relationship between des-oxo Mo(V) and des-oxo Mo(IV) geometric and electronic structures is discussed relative to the reaction coordinate in members of the DMSOR enzyme family.
