- Abstract
- Reactions of the [Fe(CN)5NO]2? complex with biologically relevant thiols
(HnRS=cysteine, N-acetylcysteine, ethyl cysteinate and glutathione) are
initiated by the nucleophilic attack of a thiolate (RSn?) on the N atom of
the NO+ ligand in the complex to form [Fe(CN)5N(O)SR](n+2)?. The N?S bond
in the latter complex is, however, weak and can undergo both heterolytic
and homolytic splitting. The former process makes the synthesis reaction
reversible, whereas the latter is responsible for the spontaneous redox
decomposition: [Fe(CN)5N(O)SR](n+2)?[FeI(CN)5NO]3?+RS(n?1)?. The rate of
the monomolecular reaction is controlled by an inductive effect in the
thiol with an additional stabilisation coming from formation of a six-
membered ring in the case of the N-acylated compounds. In the presence of
thiolate excess, the RS(n?1)? radicals are transformed into the more
stable RSSR(2n?1)? radicals, which are scavenged by both [Fe(CN)5N(O)SR]
(n+2)? and [Fe(CN)5NO]2?. The former reaction initiates, whereas the
latter terminates, chain reactions of the catalysed redox decomposition.
The catalytic decomposition (in the thiol excess) is much faster than the
spontaneous decay (in the nitroprusside excess) but leads to the same
final products. The Fe(I) reduction product is identified by UV/Vis, IR,
electrochemical and EPR methods. The effect of molecular oxygen is
investigated and explained. The mechanism is interpreted in terms of
intermediate [Fe(CN)5N(O)(SR)2](2n+2)? complex formation via nucleophilic
attack and its decay mainly via homolytic splitting of the N?S bond. To
verify the mechanism, a simple reaction model is constructed, based on the
assumption that the RSNO(n?1)? ligands are mostly responsible for the [Fe
(CN)5N(O)(SR)](n+2)? reactivity and their electronic properties are
discussed within the DFT framework. (literal)
