Biological Electron Transfer

We have explored the kinetic effect of increasing electron transfer distance in a biomimetic, proton coupled electron transfer system (PCET). Biological electron transfer is often simultaneous with proton transfer in order to avoid the high-energy, charged intermediates resulting from the stepwise transfer of protons and electrons. These concerted proton electron transfer (CPET) reactions are implicated in numerous biological electron transfer pathways. In many cases, proton transfer is coupled to long-range electron transfer. While many studies have shown that the rate of electron transfer is sensitive to the distance between the electron donor and acceptor, extensions to biological CPET reactions are sparse. The possibility of a unique electron transfer distance dependence for CPET reactions deserves further exploration, as this could have implications for how we understand biological electron transfer. We therefore explored the electron transfer distance dependence for the CPET oxidation of tyrosine in a model system. We prepared a series of metallopeptides with a tyrosine separated from a Ru(bpy)<sub>3</sub><sup>2+</sup> complex by an oligoproline bridge of increasing length. Rate constants for intramolecular tyrosine oxidation were measured using the flash-quench transient absorption technique in aqueous solutions. The rate constants for tyrosine oxidation decreased by 125-fold with three added prolines residues between tyrosine and the oxidant. By comparison, related intramolecular ET rate constants in very similar constructs were reported to decrease by 4-5 orders of magnitude over the same number of prolines. The observed shallow distance dependence for tyrosine oxidation is proposed to originate, at least in part, from the requirement for stronger oxidants, leading to a smaller hole transfer tunneling barrier height. The shallow distance dependence observed here and extensions to distance dependent CPET reactions have far-reaching implications for long-range charge transfers
