Noble-metal-free catalytic hydrogenation of nitroarenes is achieved through the rational design of atomically dispersed Ni sites on N-doped porous carbon. The outstanding activity of the catalyst originates from the atomic dispersion of Ni active sites with a high Ni–N3 content.

Phosphotriesterase (PTE) detoxifies nerve agents and organophosphate pesticides. The two zinc cations of the PTE active centre can be substituted by other transition metal cations without loss of activity. Furthermore, metal-substituted PTEs display differences in catalytic properties. A prerequisite for engineering highly efficient mutants of PTE is to improve their thermostability. Isoelectric focusing, capillary electrophoresis and steady-state kinetics analysis were used to determine the contribution of the active-site cations Zn2+, Co2+ or Cd2+ to both the catalytic activity and the conformational stability of the corresponding PTE isoforms. The three isoforms have different pI values (7.2, 7.5 and 7.1) and showed non-superimposable electrophoretic titration curves. The overall structural alterations, causing changes in functional properties, were found to be related to the nature of the bound cation: ionic radius and ion electronegativity correlate with Km and kcat respectively. In addition, the pH-dependent activity profiles of isoforms were different. The temperature-dependent profiles of activity showed maximum activity at T≤35 °C, followed by an activation phase near 45–48 °C and then inactivation which was completed at 60 °C. Analysis of thermal denaturation of the PTEs provided evidence that the activation phase resulted from a transient intermediate. Finally, at the optimum activity between pH 8 and 9.4, the thermostability of the different PTEs increased as the pH decreased, and the metal cation modulated stability (Zn2+-, Co2+- and Cd2+-PTE showed different Tm values of 60.5–67 °C, 58–64 °C and 53–64 °C respectively). Requirements for optimum activity of PTE (displayed by Co2+-PTE) and maximum stability (displayed by Zn2+-PTE) were demonstrated.

Electronic structure of a series of five-coordinate Fe ( OArTAzP ) X ( OAr = octaaryltetraazaporphyrin , X = Cl-, Br-, I-; Ar = 4-tert-butylphenyl) have been examined on the basis of1H NMR,13C NMR, and EPR spectroscopy as well as SQUID magnetometry. These complexes adopt the intermediate-spin state as in the case of analogous complexes reported by Fitzgerald et al. (Inorg. Chem. 1992; 31: 2006-2013) and Stuzhin et al. (Inorg. Chim. Acta 1995; 236: 131-139). The13C NMR studies using13C -enriched complexes at the pyrrole α positions have revealed that the pyrrole- Cαsignals appear at extraordinary upfield positions, i.e. -130 to -250 ppm at 273 K, due to the dz2-a2 uand dπ-3 eginteractions. The Curie plots of the pyrrole- Cαsignals have further revealed that the iodide complex adopts a much purer intermediate-spin state than the bromide and chloride complexes. In contrast to the case of Fe ( OArTAzP ) X , six-coordinate [ Fe ( OArTAzP )( CN )2]-showed the pyrrole- Cαsignal at 47 ppm at 273 K, which indicates that the complex adopts the low-spin state with the ( dxy)2( dxz, dyz)3electron configuration. Thus, the13C NMR chemical shift of the pyrrole- Cαsignal turns out to be quite a good probe to elucidate the spin state and electron configuration of iron(III) tetraazaporphyrins, where the1H NMR spectroscopy is less useful because of the absence of the hydrogen atoms as well as the alkyl or aryl groups directly attached to the meso positions.
