A ligand field chemistry of oxygen generation by the oxygen-evolving complex and synthetic active sites Betley TA; Surendranath Y; Childress MV; Alliger GE; Fu R; Cummins CC; Nocera DGPhilos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci 2008[Mar]; 363 (1494): 1293-303; discussion 1303Oxygen-oxygen bond formation and O2 generation occur from the S4 state of the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC). Several mechanistic possibilities have been proposed for water oxidation, depending on the formal oxidation state of the Mn atoms. All fall under two general classifications: the AB mechanism in which nucleophilic oxygen (base, B) attacks electrophilic oxygen (acid, A) of the Mn4Ca cluster or the RC mechanism in which radical-like oxygen species couple within OEC. The critical intermediate in either mechanism involves a metal oxo, though the nature of this oxo for AB and RC mechanisms is disparate. In the case of the AB mechanism, assembly of an even-electron count, high-valent metal-oxo proximate to a hydroxide is needed whereas, in an RC mechanism, two odd-electron count, high-valent metal oxos are required. Thus the two mechanisms give rise to very different design criteria for functional models of the OEC active site. This discussion presents the electron counts and ligand geometries that support metal oxos for AB and RC O-O bond-forming reactions. The construction of architectures that bring two oxygen functionalities together under the purview of the AB and RC scenarios are described.|Binding Sites[MESH]|Biomimetic Materials/*chemistry[MESH]|Manganese/*chemistry[MESH]|Models, Molecular[MESH]|Oxygen/*chemistry[MESH]|Photosystem II Protein Complex/*chemistry[MESH]|Thermodynamics[MESH]|Water/*chemistry[MESH] |
