Preparation of non-heme {FeNO}7 models of cysteine dioxygenase: sulfur versus nitrogen ligation and photorelease of nitric oxide

Abstract

We present the synthesis and spectroscopic characterization of [Fe(NO)(N3PyS)]BF4 (3), the first structural and electronic model of NO-bound cysteine dioxygenase. The nearly isostructural all-N-donor analogue [Fe(NO)(N4Py)](BF4)2 (4) was also prepared, and comparisons of 3 and 4 provide insight regarding the influence of S vs N ligation in {FeNO}(7) species. One key difference occurs upon photoirradiation, which causes the fully reversible release of NO from 3, but not from 4.
