Abstract
A comparative bioinspired reactivity study of new binuclear Zn(II) complexes featuring coordinated thiolate, selenolate, trisulfide and diselenide in relation with (i) the generation of reactive sulfur/selenium species (RSS/RSeS), (ii) the oxygen dependent oxidation and disproportionation of polysulfide (Sn2-) to produce sulfite (SO32-), thiosulfate (S2O32-) and sulfide (S2-) by sulfur oxygenase reductase (SOR), and (iii) the reaction of Sn2- with nitrite (NO2-) to generate thionitrite (SNO-), perthionitrite (SSNO-) and nitric oxide (NO), is presented. The binuclear Zn(II)-thiolate/selenolate complexes could react with elemental sulfur to generate RSS/RSeS while similar reactions involving elemental selenium could not generate RSeS. The dizinc(II)-S3 and the dizinc(II)-Se2 complexes could react with dioxygen (O2) to generate binuclear Zn(II) complexes featuring coordinated thiosulfate (S2O32-) and selenite (SeO32-), respectively. Finally, unlike the nonreactive nature of the dizinc(II)-Se2 complex toward NO2-, reaction of the dizinc(II)-S3 complex with NO2- produced a new binuclear Zn(II) complex featuring a coordinated dithiosulfite (S3O2-) along with the formation of perthionitrite (SSNO-), of which the latter subsequently produced nitric oxide (NO) and S42-. The present work, thus, demonstrates the comparative reactivity of a series of binuclear Zn(II)-chalcogenolato/-polychalcogenido complexes for the generation of S2O32-, SeO32-, S3O2-, SSNO-, NO and RSS/RSeS.
