Toward an Understanding of the Hydrolysis of Mg−PPi. An ab Initio Study of the Isomerization Reactions of Neutral and Anionic Mg−Pyrophosphate Complexes

Abstract: Ab initio calculations were performed to study the stability of various pyrophosphate species in the gas phase: H 4 P 2 O 7 , H 3 P 2 O 7 -, H 2 P 2 O 7 2-, HP 2 O 7 3-, P 2 O 7 4-, and their complexes with Mg 2+ . It is found that the metal cation allows the existence of highly charged anions in the gas phase. We also study the isomerization reactions Mg‚H 2 P 2 O 7 f (H 2 PO 4 ‚Mg‚PO 3 ), (Mg‚HP 2 O 7 ) -f (HPO 4 ‚Mg‚PO 3 ) -, and (Mg‚P 2 O 7 ) 2f (PO 4 ‚Mg‚PO 3 ) 2-, at the self-consistent-field (SCF) and s… Show more

“…Clustering and proton transfer products have been observed with substrates characterised by a gasphase acidity value close to that of H 4 P 2 O 7 and amounting to 323 kcal mol À1 . [12,15] The H 3 P 2 O 7 À ions react with (CH 3 ) 3 SiCl and (CH 3 ) 3 SiN 3 yielding [H 2 P 2 O 7 -(CH 3 ) 3 Si] À ions, in agreement with previous observations [22] showing that nucleophiles with a proton affinity lower than that of Cl À (DH8 acid HCl = 333.4 kcalmol…”

“…H NMR experiments [24,25] show that the molecule exists in water in an anti-configuration, and the triphosphate tail is fully deporotonated under neutral conditions especially when complexed with Mg 2+ . Mg 2+ has a strong catalytic activity related to its ability to elongate one of the anhydride P-O bonds, with an estimated reaction barrier of 13.5 kcal mol -1 for a pyrophosphate dianion [26][27][28].…”

“…There have been several theoretical studies on the hydrolysis of pyrophosphate in the gas phase [26,[29][30][31] in addition to several other attempts made to model the break of anhydride P-O-P linkage and to understand the underlying mechanism. These approaches range from simple molecular orbital calculations to sophisticated quantum mechanical calculations of isolated active site of protein such as myosin [26,27,30,[32][33][34][35][36][37].…”

“…[13] Multiply charged anions such as HP 2 O 7 3À and P 2 O 7 4À were hypothesized to be unstable in the gas phase, though Mg 2 + complexation allows them to exist. [14] For the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of pyrophosphate the potential energy surface is found to be dissociative if the bridging oxygen atom is protonated. [15] A possible catalytic role of the Mg 2 + ion in the hydrolysis reaction of Mg-pyrophosphate complexes was investigated theoretically.…”
