A flexible hydroxy-bridged dicopper complex as catechol oxidase mimic
Graphical abstract
The molecular structure of [Cu2(4′MeInd)2(MeOH)(μ-OH)]ClO4·MeOH [4′MeIndH = 1,3-bis(4′-methyl-2-pyridylimino)isoindoline] was fully determined by IR, UV–Vis, and X-ray crystal analysis. With the flexible hydroxy-bridged isoindoline-containing dicopper complex has been shown that it does not maintain its dimeric nature when catalyzing catechol oxidase-like reaction.

2021, Journal of Organometallic ChemistryCitation Excerpt :Generally, the met state is responsible for syn monodentate or syn-syn bidentate bridging coordination of catechol to the Cu(II) center, while the deoxy state with the Cu(I) center is responsible for dioxygen activation, which in all cases results in quinone and water production [5,13]. Many artificial models oxidize catechol through different pathways which include hydrogen peroxide production and involvement of the semiquinone radicals [14–16]. The major drawbacks of the artificial structural models are in the kinetic aspects of the catechol oxidation since native enzyme turnover numbers are still not attained in the laboratory and serious efforts are being made to investigate how the catalytic activity of the artificial models can be manipulated.
Functional substituted Cu(II) Schiff base complexes, syntheses, X-ray and theoretical characterizations, and investigations of their polyphenol oxidase- and peroxidase-like activities
2021, Journal of Molecular StructureCitation Excerpt :These enzymatic activities are very intrinsic properties for metals or metal complexes that can be used in industrial and pharmaceutical applications such as various experimental techniques in disease diagnosis [25]. Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) [Tyrosinase (also named monophenol oxidase or moonooxygenase); EC 1.14.18.1] is a metalloenzyme containing two copper ions in the active site and catalyzes, in the presence of dioxygen, the hydroxylation of monophenols to catechols (monophenol oxidase/monooxygenase activity) which in turn are oxidized to ortho-quinone (catecholase/diphenolase activity) [26–30]. On the other hand, peroxidase (POD) (EC 1.11.17) catalyzes the single electron oxidation of a group of compounds like phenols, aromatic amine, ascorbic acid and so on in presence of an electron acceptor like hydrogen peroxide [28].

2021, Journal of Molecular StructureCitation Excerpt :Apart from this, a number of platinum derivatives of BPIs have been used in luminescence applications [23–26]. Conversely, transition metal complexes of this system were also probed as structural models for various enzymes and found to mimic the respective highly selective biological processes, such as, catalase like activity [27,28], superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimic activity [29–32], phenoxazinone synthase mimic activity [33,34], catechol oxidase mimic activity [35,36] etc. In the current article we report synthesis and characterization of series of homoleptic and heteroleptic first row transition metal complexes derived from a BPI ligand.
