Modeling Reactivity of Nitrite and Nitrous Acid at a Phenolate Bridged Dizinc(II) Site: Insights into NO Signaling at Zinc. Chemistry 2023; 29:e202301409. [PMID: 37492966 DOI: 10.1002/chem.202301409] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2023] [Revised: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 07/26/2023] [Indexed: 07/27/2023]
Abstract
Although nitrite-to-NO transformation at various transition metals including Fe and Cu are relatively well explored, examples of such a reaction at the redox-inactive zinc(II) site are limited. The present report aims to gain insights into the reactivity of nitrite anions, nitrous acid (HONO), and organonitrite (RONO) at a dizinc(II) site. A phenolate-bridged dizinc(II)-aqua complex [LH ZnII (OH2 )]2 (ClO4 )2 (1H -Aq, where LH =tridentate N,N,O-donor monoanionic ligand) is illustrated to react with t BuONO to provide a metastable arene-nitrosonium charge-transfer complex 2H . UV-vis, FTIR, multinuclear NMR, and elemental analyses suggests the presence of a 2 : 1 arene-nitrosonium moiety. Furthermore, the reactivity of a structurally characterized zinc(II)-nitrite complex [LH ZnII (ONO)]2 (1H -ONO) with a proton-source demonstrates HONO reactivity at the dizinc(II) site. Reactivity of both RONO (R=alkyl/H) at the phenolate-bridged dizinc(II) site provides NO+ charge-transfer complex 2H . Subsequently, the reactions of 2H with exogenous reductants (such as ferrocene, thiol, phenol, and catechol) have been illustrated to generate NO. In addition, NO yielding reactivity of [LH ZnII (ONO)]2 (1H -ONO) in the presence of the above-mentioned reductants have been compared with the reactions of complex 2H . Thus, this report sheds light on the transformations of NO2 - /RONO (R=alkyl/H) to NO/NO+ at the redox-inactive zinc(II) coordination motif.

Abstract
The literature contains numerous reports of copper complexes for nitrite (NO2-) reduction. However, details of how protons and electrons arrive and how nitric oxide (NO) is released remain unknown. The influence of the coordination mode of nitrite on reactivity is also under debate. Kundu and co-workers have reported nitrite reduction by a copper(II) complex [J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2020, 142, 1726-1730]. In their report, the copper(II) complex reduced nitrite using a phenol derivative as a reductant, resulting in NO, a hydroxyl copper(II) complex, and the corresponding biphenol. Also, the involvement of proton-coupled electron transfer was proposed by mechanistic studies. Herein, density functional theory calculations were performed to determine a mechanism for reduction of nitrite by a copper(II) complex. As a result of geometry optimization of an initial complex, two possible structures were obtained: Cu-ONO and Cu-NO2. Two possible reaction pathways initiated from Cu-ONO or Cu-NO2 were then considered. The calculation results indicated that the Cu-ONO pathway is energetically favorable. When changes in the electronic structure were considered, both pathways were found to involve concerted proton-electron transfer (CPET). In addition, an intrinsic reaction coordinate analysis revealed that the two pathways were achieved by different types of CPET. Furthermore, an intrinsic bond orbital analysis clearly indicated that, in the Cu-ONO pathway, the chemical events involved proceeded concertedly yet asynchronously.

Abstract
Copper nitrite reductase mimetics were synthesized using three new tridentate ligands sharing the same N,N,N motif of coordination. The ligands were based on L-proline modifications, attaching a pyridine and a triazole to the pyrrolidine ring, and differ by a pendant group (R = phenyl, n-butyl and n-propan-1-ol). All complexes coordinate nitrite, as evidenced by cyclic voltammetry, UV-Vis, FTIR and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopies. The coordination mode of nitrite was assigned by FTIR and EPR as κ2O chelate mode. Upon acidification, EPR experiments indicated a shift from chelate to monodentate κO mode, and 15N NMR experiments of a Zn2+ analogue, suggested that the related Cu(II) nitrous acid complex may be reasonably stable in solution, but in equilibrium with free HONO under non catalytic conditions. Reduction of nitrite to NO was performed both chemically and electrocatalytically, observing the highest catalytic activities for the complex with n-propan-1-ol as pendant group. These results support the hypothesis that a hydrogen bond moiety in the secondary coordination sphere may aid the protonation step.

Abstract
Mononuclear copper complexes relevant to the active site of copper nitrite reductases (CuNiRs) are known to be catalytically active for the reduction of nitrite. Yet, their catalytic mechanism has thus far not been resolved. Here, we provide a complete description of the electrocatalytic nitrite reduction mechanism of a bio-inspired CuNiR catalyst Cu(tmpa) (tmpa = tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine) in aqueous solution. Through a combination of electrochemical studies, reaction kinetics, and density functional theory (DFT) computations, we show that the protonation steps take place in a stepwise manner and are decoupled from electron transfer. The rate-determining step is a general acid-catalyzed protonation of a copper-ligated nitrous acid (HNO2) species. In view of the growing urge to convert nitrogen-containing compounds, this work provides principal reaction parameters for efficient electrochemical nitrite reduction. This contributes to the investigation and development of nitrite reduction catalysts, which is crucial to restore the biogeochemical nitrogen cycle.

Abstract
In an effort to prepare small molecule mimics of the active site of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO), three monoanionic tridentate N donor ligands comprising a central deprotonated amide group flanked by two neutral donors were prepared, and their coordination chemistry with Cu(I) and Cu(II) was evaluated. With Cu(I), a dimer formed, which was characterized by X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy. A variety of mononuclear and dinuclear Cu(II) species with a range of auxiliary ligands (MeCN, Cl-, OH-, OAc-, OBz-, CO3 2-) were prepared and characterized by X-ray diffraction and various spectroscopies (UV-vis, EPR). The complexes exhibit structural similarities to the LPMO active site.

Abstract
Over the past 30 years, the significance of nitric oxide (NO) has become increasingly apparent in mammalian physiology. It is biosynthesized by three isoforms of nitric oxide synthases (NOS): neuronal (nNOS), endothelial (eNOS), and inducible (iNOS). Neuronal and eNOS both produce low levels of NO (nM) as a signaling agent and vasodilator, respectively. Inducible (iNOS) is present in activated macrophages at sites of infection to generate acutely toxic (μM) levels of NO as part of the mammalian immune defense mechanism. These discoveries have led to numerous animal and clinical studies to evaluate the potential therapeutic utility of NO in various medical operations/treatments, primarily using NO gas (via gas-cylinders) as the NO source. In this review, we focus specifically on recent advances in the electrochemical generation of NO (E-NOgen) as an alternative means to generate NO from cheap and inert sources, and the fabrication and testing of biomedical devices that utilize E-NOgen to controllably generate NO for medical applications.

Abstract
Catalytic nitrite reductions by CuII complexes containing anionic Me2Tp, neutral Me2Tpm, or neutral iPrTIC ligands in the presence of L-ascorbic acid, which served as an electron donor and proton source, were investigated. The results showed that auxiliary ligands are important for copper-mediated catalytic nitrite reduction. Furthermore, the electronic effects of the ligand govern the nitrite reduction efficiency, which should be considered at two control points: one is the susceptibility of the LCuI-nitrite species to protonation and the other is the susceptibility of LCuII to reduction giving LCuI. In addition, an external strong acid leads to the production of nitrous acid, which may suggest that the reactivity of nitrous acid toward the LCuI species is a third control point.

Abstract
A unique high-valent copper nitrite species, LCuNO2, was accessed via the reversible one-electron oxidation of [M][LCuNO2] (M = NBu4+ or PPN+). The complex LCuNO2 reacts with 2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenol via a typical proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) to yield LCuTHF and the 2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenoxyl radical. The reaction between LCuNO2 and 2,4-di-tert-butylphenol was more complicated. It yielded two products: the coupled bisphenol product expected from a H-atom abstraction and 2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-nitrophenol, the product of an unusual anaerobic nitration. Various mechanisms for the latter transformation were considered.

Abstract
4,4'-Bipyridyl is shown to be a catalyst for transfer of pinacolboryl groups from (Bpin)2 to nitrogen heterocycles and to Me3SiN3. Using stoichiometric (Bpin)2(pyrazine) or (Bpin)2(bipyridine) in an analogous manner, an aromatic nitro group is deoxygenated and subsequently borylated, and four-fold deoxygenation of (DIM)Fe(NO3)2(MeCN) to yield the dinitrosyl complex (DIM)Fe(NO)2 is facile. The co-product O(Bpin)2 is the quantitative fate of the removed oxo groups. With borylation of both nitrogen heterocycles and doubly deoxygenating two nitrates coordinated to a single metal center, broad spectrum methodology is demonstrated.

Abstract
In the view of physiological significance, the transition-metal-mediated routes for nitrite (NO2-) to nitric oxide (NO) conversion and phenol oxidation are of prime importance. Probing the reactivity of substituted phenols toward the nitritocopper(II) cryptate complex [mC]Cu(κ2-O2N)(ClO4) (1a), this report illustrates NO release from nitrite at copper(II) following a proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) pathway. Moreover, a different protonated state of 1a with a proton hosted in the outer coordination sphere, [mCH]Cu(κ2-O2N)(ClO4)2 (3), also reacts with substituted phenols via primary electron transfer from the phenol. Intriguingly, the alternative mechanism operative because of the presence of a proton at the remote site in 3 facilitates an unusual anaerobic pathway for phenol nitration.
