Abstract
Hypochlorite is known to oxidatively degrade the corrin ring of cobalamin. Here, transient reaction intermediates are described in the reaction of aqua as well as of cyano-cobalamin with hypochlorite, using stopped-flow UV–vis kinetics. For aqua-cobalamin, the intermediate is assigned as arising from substitution of the aqua ligand with hypochlorite. For cyano-cobalamin, the intermediate is proposed to arise from substitution of the benzimidazole ligand trans to the cyanide. In both cases, the intermediates would feature a new Co(III)-OCl−bond—which is also supported by density functional theory (DFT) calculations.
期刊介绍:
Biological inorganic chemistry is a growing field of science that embraces the principles of biology and inorganic chemistry and impacts other fields ranging from medicine to the environment. JBIC (Journal of Biological Inorganic Chemistry) seeks to promote this field internationally. The Journal is primarily concerned with advances in understanding the role of metal ions within a biological matrix—be it a protein, DNA/RNA, or a cell, as well as appropriate model studies. Manuscripts describing high-quality original research on the above topics in English are invited for submission to this Journal. The Journal publishes original articles, minireviews, and commentaries on debated issues.
