Abstract
The connection between 3d (Cu) and 4d (Mo) via the "Mo-S-Cu" unit is called Mo-Cu antagonism. Biology offers case studies of such interactions in metalloproteins such as Mo/Cu-CO Dehydrogenases (Mo/Cu-CODH), and Mo/Cu Orange Protein (Mo/Cu-ORP). The CODH significantly maintains the CO level in the atmosphere below the toxic level by converting it to non-toxic CO2 for respiring organisms. Several models were synthesized to understand the structure-function relationship of these native enzymes. However, this interaction was first observed in ruminants, and they convert molybdate (MoO4 2- ) into tetrathiomolybdate (MoS4 2- ; TTM), reacting with cellular Cu to yield biological unavailable Mo/S/Cu cluster, then developing Cu-deficiency diseases. These findings inspire the use of TTM as a Cu-sequester drug, especially for treating Cu-dependent human diseases such as Wilson diseases (WD) and cancer. It is well known that a balanced Cu homeostasis is essential for a wide range of biological processes, but negative consequence leads to cell toxicity. Therefore, this review aims to connect the Mo-Cu antagonism in metalloproteins and anti-copper therapy.

Abstract
A functional model of Mo-Cu carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH) enzyme requires the presence of an oxidant (metal-oxo) and a metal-bound carbonyl in close proximity. In this work, we report the synthesis, characterization, and reactivity of a heterobimetallic complex combining Mo(VI) trioxo with Mo(0) tricarbonyl. The formation of the heterobimetallic complex is facilitated by the xanthene-bridged heterodinucleating ligand containing a hard catecholate chelate and a soft iminopyridine chelate. A catechol-coordinated square-pyramidal [MoVIO3] fragment interacts directly with the iminopyridine-bound [Mo0(CO)3] fragment via a single (oxo) bridge, with the overall disposition being related to the proposed first step in the CODH mechanism, where square-pyramidal [MoVIO2S] interacts with the [Cu-CO] via a single sulfido bridge. Our attempt to obtain a sulfido-bridged analogue (using [MoO3S]2- precursor) led to a mixture of products possibly containing different (oxo and sulfido) bridges. Despite a direct interaction between Mo(VI) and Mo(0) segments, no internal redox is observed, with the high lying occupied MOs being mostly d-π orbitals at Mo0(CO)3 and the low lying unoccupied MOs being d-π orbitals at MoVIO3. Due to the overall rigid structure, the heterobimetallic complex was found to be stable up to 100 °C in DMF-d7 (based on 1H NMR). The decomposition of the complex above this temperature does not produce CO2 (based on gas chromatography), dissociating stable Mo(CO)3(DMF)3 instead (based on IR). We also synthesized and studied the reactivity of the Mo(VI)/Cr(0) analogue. While this complex demonstrated more facile decomposition, no CO2 production was observed. Density functional theory calculations suggest that the formation of [CO2]2- and its subsequent reductive elimination is endergonic in the present system, likely due to the stability of fac-Mo0(CO)3 and the relative nucleophilic character of the carbonyl carbon engendered by back donation from Mo(0). The calculations also indicate that the replacement of one oxo by sulfido (both terminal and bridging), replacement of catechol with dithiolene, and replacement of Mo(0) with Cr(0) does not affect significantly the energetics of the process, likely requiring the use a less stable and less π-basic CO anchor.

Abstract
In this study, we report the synthesis, characterization, and reactions of Cu(I) complexes of the general form Cu(L)(LigH2) (LigH2 = xanthene-based heterodinucleating ligand (E)-3-(((5-(bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amino)-2,7-di-tert-butyl-9,9-dimethyl-9H-xanthen-4-yl)imino)methyl)benzene-1,2-diol); L = PMe3, PPh3, CN(2,6-Me2C6H3)). New complexes [Cu(PMe3)(LigH2)] and [CuCN(2,6-Me2C6H3)(LigH2)] were synthesized by treating [Cu(LigH2)](PF6) with trimethylphosphine and 2,6-dimethylphenyl isocyanide, respectively. These complexes were characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), and X-ray crystallography. In contrast, attempted reactions of [Cu(LigH2)](PF6) with cyanide or styrene failed to produce isolable crystalline products. Next, the reactivity of these and previously synthesized Cu(I) phosphine and isocyanide complexes with molybdate was interrogated. IR (for isocyanide) and 31P NMR (for PPh3/PMe3) spectroscopy demonstrates the lack of oxidation reactivity. We also describe herein the first example of a structurally characterized multinuclear complex combining both Mo(VI) and Cu(I) metal ions within the same system. The heterobimetallic tetranuclear complex [Cu2Mo2O4(μ2-O)(Lig)2]·HOSiPh3 was obtained by the reaction of the silylated Mo(VI) precursor (Et4N)(MoO3(OSiPh3)) with LigH2, followed by the addition of [Cu(NCMe)4](PF6). This complex was characterized by NMR spectroscopy, high-resolution mass spectrometry, and X-ray crystallography.

Abstract
Resonance Raman spectroscopy (rR) is a powerful spectroscopic probe that is widely used for studying the geometric and electronic structure of metalloproteins. In this focused review, we detail how resonance Raman spectroscopy has contributed to a greater understanding of electronic structure, geometric structure, and the reaction mechanisms of pyranopterin molybdenum enzymes. The review focuses on the enzymes sulfite oxidase (SO), dimethyl sulfoxide reductase (DMSOR), xanthine oxidase (XO), and carbon monoxide dehydrogenase. Specifically, we highlight how Mo-Ooxo, Mo-Ssulfido, Mo-Sdithiolene, and dithiolene CC vibrational modes, isotope and heavy atom perturbations, resonance enhancement, and associated Raman studies of small molecule analogs have provided detailed insight into the nature of these metalloenzyme active sites.

Abstract
The aerobic CO dehydrogenase from Oligotropha carboxidovorans is an environmentally crucial bacterial enzyme for maintenance of subtoxic concentration of CO in the lower atmosphere, as it allows for the oxidation of CO to CO2 which takes place at its Mo−Cu heterobimetallic active site. Despite extensive experimental and theoretical efforts, significant uncertainties still concern the reaction mechanism for the CO oxidation. In this work, we used the hybrid quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical approach to evaluate whether a water molecule present in the active site might act as a nucleophile upon formation of the new C−O bond, a hypothesis recently suggested in the literature. Our study shows that activation of H2O can be favoured by the presence of the Mo=Oeq group. However, overall our results suggest that mechanisms other than the nucleophilic attack by Mo=Oeq to the activated carbon of the CO substrate are not likely to constitute reactive channels for the oxidation of CO by the enzyme.

Abstract
While developed in a number of directions, bioinspired catalysis has been explored only very recently for CO2 reduction, a challenging reaction of prime importance in the context of the energetic transition to be built up. This approach is particularly relevant because nature teaches us that CO2 reduction is possible, with low overpotentials, high rates, and large selectivity, and gives us unique clues to design and discover new interesting molecular catalysts. Indeed, on the basis of our relatively advanced understanding of the structures and mechanisms of the active sites of fascinating metalloenzymes such as formate dehydrogenases (FDHs) and CO dehydrogenases (CODHs), it is possible to design original, active, selective, and stable molecular catalysts using the bioinspired approach. These metalloenzymes use fascinating metal centers: in FDHs, a Mo(W) mononuclear ion is coordinated by four sulfur atoms provided by a specific organic ligand, molybdopterin (MPT), containing a pyranopterin heterocycle (composed of a pyran ring fused with a pterin unit) and two sulfhydryl groups for metal chelation; in CODHs, catalytic activity depends on either a unique nickel-iron-sulfur cluster or a dinuclear Mo-Cu complex in which the Mo ion is chelated by an MPT ligand. As a consequence, the novel class of catalysts, designed by bioinspiration, consists of mononuclear Mo, W, and Ni and as well as dinuclear Mo-Cu and Ni-Fe complexes in which the metal ions are coordinated by sulfur ligands, more specifically, dithiolene chelates mimicking the natural MPT cofactor. In general, their activity is evaluated in electrochemical systems (cyclic voltammetry and bulk electrolysis) or in photochemical systems (in the presence of a photosensitizer and a sacrificial electron donor) in solution. This research is multidisciplinary because it implies detailed biochemical, functional, and structural characterization of the inspiring enzymes together with synthetic organic and organometallic chemistry and molecular catalysis studies. The most important achievements in this direction, starting from the first report of a catalytically active biomimetic bis-dithiolene-Mo complex in 2015, are discussed in this Account, highlighting the challenging issues associated with synthesis of such sophisticated ligands and molecular catalysts as well as the complexity of reaction mechanisms. While the very first active biomimetic catalysts require further improvement, in terms of performance, they set the stage in which molecular chemistry and enzymology can synergistically cooperate for a better understanding of why nature has selected these sites and for developing highly active catalysts.

Abstract
Sulfide and transition metals often came together in Biology. The variety of possible structural combinations enabled living organisms to evolve an array of highly versatile metal-sulfide centers to fulfill different physiological roles. The ubiquitous iron‑sulfur centers, with their structural, redox, and functional diversity, are certainly the best-known partners, but other metal-sulfide centers, involving copper, nickel, molybdenum or tungsten, are equally crucial for Life. This review provides a concise overview of the exclusive sulfide properties as a metal ligand, with emphasis on the structural aspects and biosynthesis. Sulfide as catalyst and as a substrate is discussed. Different enzymes are considered, including xanthine oxidase, formate dehydrogenases, nitrogenases and carbon monoxide dehydrogenases. The sulfide effect on the activity and function of iron‑sulfur, heme and zinc proteins is also addressed.

Abstract
In an effort to probe the feasibility of a model of Mo-Cu CODH (CODH = carbon monoxide dehydrogenase) lacking a bridging sulfido group, the new heterodinucleating ligand LH2 was designed and its Cu(I)/Mo(VI) reactivity was investigated. LH2 ((E)-3-(((5-(bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amino)-2,7-di-tert-butyl-9,9-dimethyl-9H-xanthen-4-yl)imino)methyl)benzene-1,2-diol) features two different chelating positions bridged by a xanthene linker: bis(pyridyl)amine for Cu(I) and catecholate for Mo(VI). LH2 was synthesized via the initial protection of one of the amine positions, followed by two consecutive alkylations of the second position, deprotection, and condensation to attach the catechol functionality. LH2 was found to exhibit dynamic cooperativity between two reactive sites mediated by H-bonding of the catechol protons. In the free ligand, catechol protons exhibit H-bonding with imine (intramolecular) and with pyridine (intermolecular in the solid state). The reaction of LH2 with [Cu(NCMe)4]+ led to the tetradentate coordination of Cu(I) via all nitrogen donors of the ligand, including the imine. Cu(I) complexes were characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), X-ray crystallography, and DFT calculations. Cu(I) coordination to the imine disrupted H-bonding and caused rotation away from the catechol arm. The reaction of the Cu(I) complex [Cu(LH2)]+ with a variety of monodentate ligands X (PPh3, Cl-, SCN-, CN-) released the metal from coordination to the imine, thereby restoring imine H-bonding with the catechol proton. The second catechol proton engages in H-bonding with Cu-X (X = Cl, CN, SCN), which can be intermolecular (XRD) or intramolecular (DFT). The reaction of LH2 with molybdate [MoO4]2- led to incorporation of [MoVIO3] at the catecholate position, producing [MoO3(L)]2-. Similarly, the reaction of [Cu(LH2)]+ with [MoO4]2- formed the heterodinuclear complex [CuMoO3(L)]-. Both complexes were characterized by multinuclear NMR, UV-vis, and HRMS. HRMS in both cases confirmed the constitution of the complexes, containing molecular ions with the expected isotopic distribution.

Abstract
Constructing synthetic models of the Mo/Cu active site of aerobic carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH) has been a long-standing synthetic challenge thought to be crucial for understanding how atmospheric concentrations of CO and CO2 are regulated in the global carbon cycle by chemolithoautotrophic bacteria and archaea. Here we report a W/Cu complex that is among the closest synthetic mimics constructed to date, enabled by a silyl protection/deprotection strategy that provided access to a kinetically stabilized complex with mixed O2-/S2- ligation between (bdt)(O)WVI and CuI(NHC) (bdt = benzene dithiolate, NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene) sites. Differences between the inorganic core's structural and electronic features outside the protein environment relative to the native CODH cofactor point to a biochemical CO oxidation mechanism that requires a strained active site geometry, with Lewis acid/base frustration enforced by the protein secondary structure. This new mechanistic insight has the potential to inform synthetic design strategies for multimetallic energy storage catalysts.

BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-BIOENERGETICS 2019; 1861:148118. [PMID: 31734195 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbabio.2019.148118] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2019] [Revised: 10/19/2019] [Accepted: 11/04/2019] [Indexed: 01/25/2023]
Abstract
CO dehydrogenase (CODH) from the Gram-negative bacterium Oligotropha carboxidovorans is a complex metalloenzyme from the xanthine oxidase family of molybdenum-containing enzymes, bearing a unique binuclear Mo-S-Cu active site in addition to two [2Fe-2S] clusters (FeSI and FeSII) and one equivalent of FAD. CODH catalyzes the oxidation of CO to CO2 with the concomitant introduction of reducing equivalents into the quinone pool, thus enabling the organism to utilize CO as sole source of both carbon and energy. Using a variety of EPR monitored redox titrations and spectroelectrochemistry, we report the redox potentials of CO dehydrogenase at pH 7.2 namely MoVI/V, MoV/IV, FeSI2+/+, FeSII2+/+, FAD/FADH and FADH/FADH-. These potentials are systematically higher than the corresponding potentials seen for other members of the xanthine oxidase family of Mo enzymes, and are in line with CODH utilising the higher potential quinone pool as an electron acceptor instead of pyridine nucleotides. CODH is also active when immobilised on a modified Au working electrode as demonstrated by cyclic voltammetry in the presence of CO.

Abstract
![]()
Nickel-containing
enzymes such as methyl coenzyme M reductase (MCR) and carbon monoxide
dehydrogenase/acetyl coenzyme A synthase (CODH/ACS) play a critical
role in global energy conversion reactions, with significant contributions
to carbon-centered processes. These enzymes are implied to cycle through
a series of nickel-based organometallic intermediates during catalysis,
though identification of these intermediates remains challenging.
In this work, we have developed and characterized a nickel-containing
metalloprotein that models the methyl-bound organometallic intermediates
proposed in the native enzymes. Using a nickel(I)-substituted azurin
mutant, we demonstrate that alkyl binding occurs via nucleophilic
addition of methyl iodide as a methyl donor. The paramagnetic NiIII-CH3 species initially generated can be rapidly
reduced to a high-spin NiII-CH3 species in the
presence of exogenous reducing agent, following a reaction sequence
analogous to that proposed for ACS. These two distinct bioorganometallic
species have been characterized by optical, EPR, XAS, and MCD spectroscopy,
and the overall mechanism describing methyl reactivity with nickel
azurin has been quantitatively modeled using global kinetic simulations.
A comparison between the nickel azurin protein system and existing
ACS model compounds is presented. NiIII-CH3 Az
is only the second example of two-electron addition of methyl iodide
to a NiI center to give an isolable species and the first
to be formed in a biologically relevant system. These results highlight
the divergent reactivity of nickel across the two intermediates, with
implications for likely reaction mechanisms and catalytically relevant
states in the native ACS enzyme. A bioorganometallic model
for acetyl coenzyme A synthase has been developed. This model protein
is able to bind a cationic methyl group via direct addition to the
nickel(I) center. The resultant nickel(III)-methyl species has been
characterized via optical and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy,
and the reduced nickel(II)-methyl state has been characterized using
magnetic circular dichroism and X-ray spectroscopy. Implications for
further reactivity with CO are gleaned from electronic structure analysis
of the nickel-methyl species.

Abstract
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a highly toxic gas to many living organisms. However, some microorganisms are able to use this molecule as the sole source of carbon and energy. Soil bacteria such as the aerobic Oligotropha carboxidovorans are responsible for the annual removal of about 2x108 tons of CO from the atmosphere. Detoxification through oxidation of CO to CO2 is enabled by the MoCu-dependent CO-dehydrogenase enzyme (MoCu-CODH) which-differently from other enzyme classes with similar function-retains its catalytic activity in the presence of atmospheric O2. In the last few years, targeted advancements have been described in the field of bioengineering and biomimetics, which is functional for future technological exploitation of the catalytic properties of MoCu-CODH and for the reproduction of its reactivity in synthetic complexes. Notably, a growing interest for the quantum chemical investigation of this enzyme has recently also emerged. This mini-review compiles the current knowledge of the MoCu-CODH catalytic cycle, with a specific focus on the outcomes of theoretical studies on this enzyme class. Rather controversial aspects from different theoretical studies will be highlighted, thus illustrating the challenges posed by this system as far as the application of density functional theory and hybrid quantum-classical methods are concerned.

Abstract
Complexes exhibiting the MoVO(μ-S)CuI cores, EPR properties, electronic structures and biomimetic reactions of aerobic Mo/Cu-containing carbon monoxide dehydrogenases are reported.
Reaction of [CoCp2][TpiPrMoOS(OAr)] [Cp = η5-cyclopentadienyl; TpiPr = hydrotris(3-isopropylpyrazol-1-yl)borate; OAr = phenolate or derivative thereof] with [Cu(NCMe)(Me3tcn)]BF4 (Me3tcn = 1,4,7-trimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane) in MeCN at –30 °C results in the formation of red-brown/black, paramagnetic, μ-sulfido-Mo(v)/Cu(i) complexes, TpiPrMoO(OAr)(μ-S)Cu(Me3tcn). The complexes possess the MoO(μ-S)Cu core found in aerobic carbon monoxide dehydrogenases (CODHs) and exhibit X-band EPR spectra closely related to those of semi-reduced CODH, with giso ∼ 1.937, hyperfine coupling to 95,97Mo (aiso = 39–42 × 10–4 cm–1) and strong superhyperfine coupling to 63,65Cu (aiso = 34–63 × 10–4 cm–1). Anisotropic spectra exhibit monoclinic symmetry with g1 ∼ 1.996, g2 ∼ 1.944 and g3 ∼ 1.882, and nearly isotropic ACu values (75–90 × 10–4 cm–1). The X-ray structures of four derivatives (Ar = Ph, C6H4tBu-2, C6H4sBu-2, C6H4Ph-4) are reported and discussed along with that of the Ar = C6H3tBu2-3,5 derivative (communicated in C. Gourlay, D. J. Nielsen, J. M. White, S. Z. Knottenbelt, M. L. Kirk and C. G. Young, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 2006, 128, 2164). The complexes exhibit distorted octahedral oxo-Mo(v) and distorted tetrahedral Cu(i) centres bridged by a single bent μ-sulfido ligand, with Mo–S and Cu–S distances and Mo–S–Cu angles in the ranges 2.262–2.300 Å, 2.111–2.134 Å and 115.87–134.27°, respectively.

Mo–S–Cu torsion angles of 92.7 and 21.1°, respectively, very different from those of the other structurally characterized derivatives (31–47 and 33–45°, respectively) and exhibits a relatively short Mo···Cu distance [3.752(2) Å vs. 3.806(7)–4.040(2) Å]. As well, the aCu value of this complex (34.3 × 10–4 cm–1) is much lower than the values observed for other members of the series (55–63 × 10–4 cm–1), supporting the hypothesis that the electronic structure of the MoO(μ-S)Cu core unit and the degree of intermetallic communication are strongly dependent on the geometry of the MoO(OR)(μ-S)Cu unit. The complexes participate in an electrochemically reversible Mo(vi)/Mo(v) redox couple and react with cyanide undergoing decupration and desulfurization reactions of the type observed for CODH.

Abstract
The monoanionic bidentate ligand [(Ph3B)CH(3,5-(CH3)2Pz)2)]- has been prepared from lithium bis(pyrazolyl)methanide and triphenylborane. This useful new ligand is closely related to the well-established bis(pyrazolyl)borate and bis(pyrazolyl)methane ligands but has key differences to both analogues as well. The ethylene, cis-2-butene, and carbon monoxide adducts [(Ph3B)CH(3,5-(CH3)2Pz)2]Cu(L) (where L = C2H4, cis-CH3HC═CHCH3, and CO) have been prepared from [(Ph3B)CH(3,5-(CH3)2Pz)2)]Li(THF), copper(I) triflate, and the corresponding coligand. These complexes have been characterized by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. In all cases the bis(pyrazolyl) moiety is bound in κ2N fashion with the BPh3 group rotated to sit over the metal center, sometimes coordinating to the metal via phenyl carbons as in [(Ph3B)CH(3,5-(CH3)2Pz)2)]Li(THF) and [(Ph3B)CH(3,5-(CH3)2Pz)2]Cu(CO) or simply hovering above the metal site as in [(Ph3B)CH(3,5-(CH3)2Pz)2)]Cu(C2H4) and [(Ph3B)CH(3,5-(CH3)2Pz)2)]Cu(cis-CH3HC═CHCH3). The 13C and 1H resonances of the ethylene carbon and protons of [(Ph3B)CH(3,5-(CH3)2Pz)2)]Cu(C2H4) appear at δ 81.0 and 3.71 ppm in CD2Cl2, respectively. The characteristic CO frequency for [(Ph3B)CH(3,5-(CH3)2Pz)2]Cu(CO) has been observed at υ̅ 2092 cm-1 by infrared spectroscopy and is lower than that of free CO suggesting moderate M → CO π-back-donation. A detailed analysis of these complexes has been presented herein.

Abstract
The Mo/Cu-dependent CO dehydrogenase from Oligotropha carboxidovorans is an enzyme that is able to catalyze CO oxidation to CO2; moreover, it can also oxidize H2, thus eliciting a characteristic EPR signal. Interestingly, the Ag-substituted enzyme form proved unable to catalyze H2 oxidation. In the present contribution, we characterized the reactivity of the enzyme with H2 by quantum-chemical calculations. It was found that dihydrogen binding to the wild-type enzyme requires significant structural rearrangements of the active site Theoretical EPR spectra for plausible H2-bound models of the partially reduced, paramagnetic active site are also presented and compared with the experimental counterpart. Finally, density functional theory modeling shows that Ag substitution impairs H2 binding at the active site.

Abstract
Recent progress is surveyed in regard to the importance of molecular species containing unpaired electrons in catalytic systems, as revealed using ESR spectroscopy. The review begins with studies of enzymes and their role directly in biological systems, and then discusses investigations of various artificially created catalysts with potential human and environmental significance, including zeolites. Among the specific types of catalytic media considered are those for photocatalysis, water splitting, the degradation of environmental pollutants, hydrocarbon conversions, fuel cells, ionic liquids and sensor devices employing graphene. Studies of muonium-labelled radicals in zeolites are also reviewed, as a means for determining the dynamics of transient radicals in these nanoporous materials.

Abstract
We review the xanthine oxidase (XO) family of pyranopterin molybdenum enzymes with a specific emphasis on electronic structure contributions to reactivity. In addition to xanthine and aldehyde oxidoreductases, which catalyze the two-electron oxidation of aromatic heterocycles and aldehyde substrates, this mini-review highlights recent work on the closely related carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH) that catalyzes the oxidation of CO using a unique Mo-Cu heterobimetallic active site. A primary focus of this mini-review relates to how spectroscopy and computational methods have been used to develop an understanding of critical relationships between geometric structure, electronic structure, and catalytic function.

Abstract
A molecular orbital analysis provides new insight into the mechanism of Mo/Cu carbon monoxide dehydrogenase, and reveals electronic structure contributions to reactivity that are remarkably similar to the structurally related molybdenum hydroxylases. A calculated reaction barrier of ~12 kcal mol(-1) is in excellent agreement with experiment.

Abstract
An overview is provided of the importance of molecular species containing unpaired electrons in catalytic systems, as revealed using ESR spectroscopy. The review aims to demonstrate the considerable extent of scientific progress that has been made in this broad topic during the past few decades. Studies of catalytically active surfaces, including zeolites, are surveyed, and the detection of radical species, formed as intermediates in their reactions, using matrix isolation and spin-trapping techniques. Radical cation formation in zeolites is discussed, and the employment of muon spin rotation and relaxation techniques to study the mobility of labelled radicals in various porous and catalytic media. Among the specific types of catalytic media considered are those for photocatalysis, water splitting, degradation of environmental pollutants, hydrocarbon conversions, fuel cells and sensor devices employing graphene. The review concludes with recent developments in the study of enzymes and their reactions, using ESR-based methods.
