Factors That Determine the Mechanism of NO Activation by Metal Complexes of Biological and Environmental Relevance

Abstract: This account presents a sampling of kinetic and mechanistic investigations on the activation of nitric oxide (NO) by metal complexes of biological and environmental importance. Throughout the review the main emphasis falls on the finding and characterization of factors that control the dynamics of NO-metal interactions in which the metal centers serve as coordination and electron-transfer mediators. On the basis of the systems surveyed, several important aspects concerning the mechanism of NO activation proces… Show more

“…12,20−23 However, in much more catalytically complex biological or environmental systems, numerous other factors such as steric hindrance around the metal center, the type of reaction medium, the chemical nature of the substituted ligand, the electronic and structural properties of other coligands play an important role in controlling the dynamics of the reversible binding of NO. 24 The overwhelming majority of research, conducted by both us and others, aiming to mimic the interaction of NO with heme proteins, was conducted using artificial porphyrins. Such an approach, through a comparison of the results with the ones obtained for proteins, allows conclusions to be drawn about the degree to which the process is controlled by the metal center, as well as determination of the influence of the protein architecture on the properties of the prosthetic group.…”

“…In particular, heme proteins are involved in the generation of NO, either by nitric oxide synthases (NOS) or by nitrite reduction in heme cd 1 nitrite reductases and globins, the sensing of NO by H–NOX domains (for example, in mammalian soluble guanylate cyclase, sGC), NO transport in nitrophorins, and the breakdown of NO in respiratory NO reductases (bacterial cNORs and fungal Cyt. P450nor), which reduce two molecules of NO to N 2 O. , Correspondingly, the coordination chemistry of hemes with NO has been investigated in much detail, and model complexes have been developed in all relevant redox states, {FeNO} 6–8 (using the Enemark–Feltham notation where the exponent indicates the number of valence electrons, here the sum of Fe­(d) and NO­(π*) electrons). , Corresponding ferrous heme–HNO, or {FeHNO} 8 , complexes have been generated in myoglobin (Mb) and other heme proteins by Farmer and co-workers . Although these complexes have not been crystallized, 1 H NMR provides clear experimental evidence for the presence of an N-protonated HNO at the active site. , Recently, progress has been made in obtaining corresponding {FeHNO} 8 model complexes. …”

“…In 1998, the Nobel Prize for Medicine or Physiology was awarded to Ignarro [9] who investigated the influence of Fe II (NO) compounds on the opening of the blood vessels. As a result, more studies on the Fe(NO) compounds and their activity and properties have been carried out, e.g., by Franke and van Eldik [10].…”
