ABSTRACT
Superoxide dismutases are ubiquitous enzymes that efficiently catalyze the
disproportionation of superoxide radical anions to protect biological molecules from oxidative
damage. Several SODs have been identified having different metals at their active sites. These
include Mn SOD, Fe SOD, Cu/Zn SOD and, most recently, Ni SOD. The catalytic center of Ni
SOD resides in the N-terminal active-site loop, where a Ni(II) is coordinated by the amine N of
His-1, the amide N of Cys-2, and two thiolate S atoms of Cys-2 and Cys-6. In the oxidized form,
Ni(III) adds the imidazole N of His-1 as an axial ligand. For the past decade, we have been
developing methodology using 2, 2’-dithiodibenzaldehyde (DTDB) for the synthesis of metal
complexes with mixed N/S coordination. We are reporting on the application of this
methodology to the synthesis of model complexes for the active site of NiSOD, in which we
have successfully synthesized and characterized three NiIIN2S2 complexes of imine/amine N
donors: Ni(NNS)SPh (1), Ni(NNS)SPhNO2 (2) and Ni(NNS)StBu (3). These may be used as a
model for reduced NiSOD, with future plans of comparing to complexes with amide/amine N
donors, thus establishing the role of the amide.

INTRODUCTION OF NISOD
1.1 Superoxide Dismutases
Superoxide dismutases (SODs) are metalloenzymes found in living organisms that
protect from the damaging effects of the superoxide radical. This is done by catalyzing the
disproportionation of O2. - (superoxide) into O2 (molecular oxygen) and H2O2 (hydrogen
peroxide) [1][2] at physiological pH and at rates near the diffusion limit (kcat-109 M-1 s-1).
Superoxide disproportionation is catalyzed through a ping-pong mechanism that involves
electron transfer to and from the metal center that cycle between the reduced state and oxidized
state, as shown in equations 1 and 2 [1-4].

Superoxide toxicity has been implicated in a number of medical conditions, including
Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, certain cancers, familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and
aging [5-13], thus indicating the critical role these metalloenzymes play in organisms. There are
four known superoxide dismutases of which the first three, i.e., Fe-, Mn-, and Cu/Zn-SOD [1, 14,
15] have been known for many years and have been thoroughly investigated. FeSODs are found
in prokaryotes and in plants, MnSODs are found in prokaryotes and in the mitochondria of
humans, and Cu/ZnSODs are found in the cytosol of eukaryotic cells and in the perioxisomes. A
recently discovered class of SOD containing Ni has been isolated from Streptomyces species
[16-19] and several cyanobacteria [20].This newly discovered enzyme, is different from others
1
SODs in terms of spectroscopic properties, active-site ligand environment, and amino acid
sequence.
1.1.1 Structure
Cu/ZnSOD is a 32 kDa homodimeric or monomeric β-barrel protein in which each
monomer of the molecule binds one copper and one zinc ion, displaying the Greek Key motif
[21]. Crystallographic and spectroscopic studies have demonstrated that a histidyl residue (His63
in human and yeast) coordinates the copper and zinc ions simultaneously in the cupric form of
the enzyme. This histidine residue, termed the “histidine bridge” or “bridging imidazolate,” is a
motif so far observed only in Cu/ZnSOD. In the cupric form of SOD the copper binding
geometry is described as distorted square planar, with histidine residues 46, 48, 63, and 120
acting as ligands in the human and yeast proteins [16, 22, 23-29].
MnSOD and FeSOD are homologous homodimeric or homotetrameric proteins with a
two domain primary alpha-helical fold [30]. The structure has three histidine residues, one
aspartic acid, and a solvent molecule in a trigonal bipyramidal geometry coordinating the metal.
NiSOD is a homohexamer of approximately 13 kDa monomers, with each containing one Ni
atom [31, 32]. NiSOD exists in two states: oxidized state and reduced state. In the oxidized state,
the geometry of the ligand environment is square-pyramidal with the imidazole donor from
histidine(His 1) in the axial position and two cis-thiolates from cysteine residues (Cys2 and
Cys6), a deprotonated amide from the Cys2 backbone, and the N-terminal –NH2 group of His1 in
the basal positions (Fig. 1.1.1.1) [31,32]. In the reduced state of NiSOD, the side chain of His 1
is rotated away, such that the distance between Ni and His 1 is significantly larger resulting in a
square-planar geometry around the Ni2+ [31,32].
2
Comparing NiSOD with other SOD enzymes, NiSOD is the only SOD family in which
the coordination number changes as a function of the metal ion oxidation state [38]. Also, the
NiSOD active site environment is different from other SODs. It has two Cys thiolates
coordinated to the nickel, which is surprising since they would be susceptible to oxidation by
derivatives of O2.-. Moreover, the coordination by deprotonated amides [47, 48] and the ligation
by the N-terminal amine [49, 51] have been established in only few cases.
Figure 1.1.1.1 Truncated structures of NiSOD red and NiSOD ox [33]
1.1.2 Redox properties.
A requirement for any SOD is a one-electron redox potential that lies between the
potentials for oxidation and reduction of O2-. The O2/O2.- couple has been reported at a potential
3
of -0.16 V (vs. NHE) and the O2.-/H2O2 redox couple is 0.870 V [34]. The midpoint potential for
Equations 1 and 2 is approximately 0.36 V in aqueous solution at pH 7. Cu/Zn, Fe and Mn SODs
have measured redox potentials that range close to 0.3 V with a deviation of 0.1 V [35]. The
redox couple of each metal in the SODs makes up the one electron transfer system. One of the
most intriguing aspects about the NiSOD is that aqueous Ni2+ is not capable of SOD activity [36]
unlike Cu2+, Mn2+ and Fe2+, since the Ni(III/II) couple lies at over +1 V and the Ni(II/I) couple is
lower than -1 V. However, a redox potential of 0.286 V has been measured for NiSOD [37], thus
suggesting the idea that the unusual protein or ligand environment is responsible for decreasing
the potential of Ni(III/II).
1.1.3 Catalytic Mechanism
Detailed investigations of the catalytic mechanism of the NiSOD enzyme have been
conducted by several investigators. Inner sphere and outer sphere mechanisms are the possible
electron transfer mechanisms for NiSOD, depending on whether or not the substrate is bound in
the first coordination sphere of the nickel ion. Buntkowsky and coworkers have been able to
show support for the inner-sphere electron transfer mechanism [38] by synthesizing and
characterizing metallopeptide substrate model complexes employing cyanide as a substrate
analogue. Another proposed catalytic mechanism by Barondeau [31] found that the superoxide
coordinates above the plane of the square planar coordination environment at the active site of
the NiSOD enzyme while the His1-imidazole side chain can coordinate from the opposite side of
the nickel ion forming a trigonal pyramidal (structure 2 in figure 1.1.3.1) or an octahedral
(structure 4 in figure 1.1.3.1) transition state. Also Getzoff proposed that the properly positioned
backbone amide of Asp3 or Cys6 or the hydroxyl of Tyr9 can donate protons for hydrogen
peroxide formation. NiSOD Tyr 9 is positioned as a proton donor 5 Å away from the nickel
4
center. Recent studies on Tyr9 mutants by Maroney and co-workers have shown a decrease in
activity and H2O2 saturation kinetics not observed for wild-type enzyme, highlighting the
importance of Tyr9 in catalysis and proposed role to aid in the release of hydrogen peroxide [39].
Figure 1.1.3.2 shows a catalytic mechanism proposed by Getzoff showing the importance of
Tyr9.
Figure 1.1.3.1 Proposed catalytic cycle for superoxide degradation in NiSOD. Ni3+ oxidation
state is found in the bound His imidazole ring complex (structure III and IV), while Ni2+
oxidation state is in the unbound His-imidazole ring complex (structure I and II) [40].

1.2 NiSOD Model Complexes
The main goal of this research is to synthesize model compounds that may give us insight
and understanding into how the NiSOD active site works, however there are numerous
approaches to reach this goal. There are three different kinds of models that have been designed
and discussed in scientific journals relating to NiSOD. The first is the computational approach,
which is becoming more popular since it is more economical and provides reliable values that
may be used as supporting information. The second is the synthetic method, which will be
discussed in depth since my research falls under this category. The third involves peptide-based
models, which have shown great promise since they are the only models that have so far shown
superoxide dismutase activity. However, I will still emphasize that in my opinion all three
approaches have great potential to give insight about how the enzyme works and its chemistry.
1.2.1 Computational modeling.
Brunold and coworkers performed computational studies using DFT and TD-DFT
calculations to optimize the geometries and predict the transition energies and electronic
absorption intensities, respectively, for five- and six-coordinate active-site models [33]. Also
other groups have used computational studies to estimate the inner-sphere reorganization
energies and the bond distances, e.g. Shearer and coworker’s paper [41] as shown in figure
1.2.1.1, to obtain values for the self-exchange reactions where the imidazole remains on or off
during electron transfer (ET), force constants and atomic coordinates for imidazole ligated
(NiII(SOD-on)) and imidazole unligated NiIII(SOD-off) were obtained. This was done by using
(NiII(SOD-off)) and NiIII(SOD-on) as starting structures, followed by oxidation or reduction of
7
the Ni-center and subsequent geometry optimizations. They minimized structures for NiIII(SODoff), low-spin (NiII(SOD-onl.s.)), and high spin (NiII(SOD-onh.s.)) (figure 1. 2.1.1).
Figure 1.2.1.1 Energy minimizations of the oxidized (NiIII(SOD-on)) and reduced ((NiII(SODoff))-) NiSOD computational models were performed by DFT methods [41].
Using the procedure outlined above for the NiIII(SOD-off)/(NiII(SOD-off))- self-exchange
electron transfer (ET) reaction was calculated to be 16.2 kcal mole-1. The bond distances are as
shown in figure 1.2.1.1 and were similar to other computational models.
8
1.2.2 Synthetic Models
Several groups have reported compounds that have similar structures to the active site of
NiSOD. Harrop and coworkers have synthesized an array of donor centers that replicate the
asymmetric nature of the N2S2 donor set, and characterized the synthetic {Ni(nmp)(SR)}compounds shown below in figure 1.2.2.1 [42]. These complexes are good structural analogues
with the pyridyl-N, carboxamide-N, and thiolato-S of the nmp2- ligand modeling the
contributions of His-1 and Cys-2 in NiSOD. The addition of the thiolate allows for variable and
unconstrained modeling of Cys-6 in NiSOD utilizing electronically different thiolate ligands.

9
benzoylaminobenzene thiol (4), N-(2-mercaptoethyl)benzamide (5), and N-acetyl-L-cysteine
methyl ester (6) [42].
X-ray crystallography was used to characterize these compounds and the bond distances were
about in the range with reduced NiSOD [31]. The NiN2S2 coordination geometry remains
distorted square planar around the NiII in all the complexes with little deviation from the least –
squares plane defined by the donor atoms.

Cyclic voltammetry measurements of 2-6 revealed irreversible oxidation events in MeCN
solvent (vs Ag/AgCl, RT). The authors suggested that the irreversibility of the oxidation event is
either ligand based oxidation or an unstable NiIII species that is short lived due to autoredox. The
electronic absorption spectral properties and oxidation potentials of complexes 2-6 are reported
as shown in Table 1.2.2.1.

Moreover, 2, 4, 5 and 6 have midpoint potential values close to the protein value of 490 mV (vs
Ag/AgCl, pH 7.5 phosphate buffer) [39]. The compounds did not show superoxide activity even
upon addition of 10 equivalents of imidazole. This, the group suggested, might be due to the
instability of NiIII.
Duboc and coworkers have made a synthetic compound NiIIN2S2 that also mimics the
redox structural changes of NiSOD. They showed that their structure undergoes metal-based
oxidation, and even more interesting, an electrochemical investigation that showed the
reversible, oxidation-state-dependent generation of a square pyramidal [NiIIIN3S2]+ complex in
the presence of imidazole. The group used EPR coupled with DFT calculations to demonstrate
that the nickel character in the redox active orbital increases drastically upon imidazole binding ,
11
which would favor Ni oxidation over S oxidation [43]. Figure 1.2.2.4 shows the crystal structure
of NiIIN2S2 1 and DFT optimized structure of NiIIIN2S2 3.
Figure 1.2.2.4 Redox equilibrium between 1 (X-ray structure with 50% thermal ellipsoids and H
atoms omitted) and 3* (optimized structure; Im=imidazole). Selected bond distances in 1 (Å):
Ni(1)-S(1)=2.1732(6), Ni(1)-S(2)=2.1759(6), Ni(1)-N(1)=1.9345(16), Ni(1)-N(2)= 1.9352(16)
[43].
The cyclic voltammogram displays two one-electron metal-based processes: a quasireversible Ni II/NiI reduction wave at E1/2 = -1.68 V vs Ag/Ag+ and an irreversible NiIII / NiII
oxidation peak at Epa = +0.34 V. By bulk oxidation at E = +0.38 V, they were able to obtain a
stable EPR-silent, orange solution that corresponds to quantitative formation of a NiIII dimer. The
addition of up to 2.5 equivalents of imidazole in an electrogenerated solution as explained above,
leads to progressive appearance of a new irreversible reduction peak at Epc = -0.2 V. The
resulting red solution displayed a rhombic EPR S=1/2 signal consistent with Ni(III) as shown in
figure 1.2.2.5. The three-line superhyperfine pattern in the gz component is assigned to a single
nitrogen donor atom (15 IN=1) arising from the imidazole ligand axially bound to the Ni ion [43].

electrogenerated 2, recorded in CH2Cl2 (0.1M Bu4NPF6) at 100 K. Parameters used for the
simulation: gx=2.315, gy=2.177, gz= 2.029, and Az=54MHz [43].
The species 3 in figure 1.2.2.4 can also be generated via bulk electrolysis at +0.38 V of 1 in the
presence of 2.5 equiv of imidazole. By exhaustive reduction of 3 at -0.4 V, it regenerated 1 with
a yield of 85%, showing the reversibility of the coordination process of the imidazole [43].
Jensen and coworkers have also reported three crystal structures, in which they used
scorpionate ligands, i.e. they utilized the hydrotris(3-phenyl-5-methylpyrazolyl) borate ligand (
TpPh,Me) to mimic the monoanionic facial array of nitrogen donors and 1,1-S,S’-chelating
dithiocarbamates (R2NCS2-, R = Et, Ph) and organoxanthate (EtOCS2-) as coligands to mimic the
dithiolate coordination. The scorpionate donor can adopt variable κ2 or κ3 chelate modes. The
crystal structures of their three complexes confirm square-planar N2S2 ligand fields for the
dithiocarbamates and a square-pyramidal N3S2 field for the xanthate with κ2 and κ3 scorpionate
ligands, respectively [52], as shown in figure 1.2.2.6.

2.078(1); Ni-N1, 2.052(2) [52].
All three complexes exhibited quasi-reversible one-electron couples by cyclic voltammetry in
CH2Cl2 solutions, with observed E0’ values reflecting the relative donor strengths of S,S’chelates: TpPh,MeNiS2CNPh2 = - 80 mV, TpPh,MeNiS2CNEt2 = 50 mV, and TpPh,MeNiS2COEt =
260 mV. These values fall in a range suitable for NiSOD activity, suggesting these might
function as catalysts under appropriate solvent conditions [52].
Masuda and coworkers have also reported a Ni(II) complex with N2S2 square-planar
geometry, and identified interesting structural behavior exhibited during the reaction of the
complex with superoxide. The Ni(II) center of the complex has C2 symmetry with square-planar
geometry. The ligands are provided by two amine nitrogens and two thioether sulfurs. The
complex has absorption band characteristics of Ni(II) complexes with a square-planar structure at
474 nm (210 ɛ/M-1cm-1 in MeOH). The Ni(II) complex produced reversible and quasi-reversible
14
redox potentials corresponding to Ni(I)/(II) and Ni(II)/(III) couples at -0.68 and 1.71 V (vs.
NHE), respectively. The complex is oxidized by KO2 to Ni(III) in MeOH. The same product was
shown to be formed in a reaction between the reduced product of Ni(II) complex and O2 [53].
Figure 1.2.2.7 Masuda Ni(II) complex.
Shearer and Zhao have reported a synthetic model for nickel superoxide dismutase that
contains Ni in a mixed amine/ amide coordination environment [Me4N](NiII(BEAAM)), as
shown in figure 1.2.2.8. It contains Ni-S bonds at 2.177(2) and 2.137(2) Å and Ni-N bonds at
1.989(7) and 1.858(6) Å, which compare well with the metalloenzyme. They observed a
quasireversible NiII/III redox couple at 0.21(1) V vs Ag/AgCl. They suggested that NiSOD
utilizes the mixed amine/amide ligand to modulate the NiII/III redox couple to best match the O2.reduction/oxidation couples while maintaining O2 stability [54].

1.2.3 Peptide Models.
Several researchers have prepared metallopeptides that have been used for studying
NiSOD. Shearer and coworkers have prepared a series of metallopeptides that closely mimic the
spectroscopic and structural properties of the enzyme ({NiIII/II(SODM1-Im-X)} X = Me, H, DNP,
and Tos; SODM1-Im-X = H'CDLPCGVYDPA where H' is an N-substituted His), from first the
12 residues of the NiSOD protein. The structures are shown in figure 1.2.3.1.
Figure 1.2.3.1 [44] ({NiIII/II(SODM1-Im-X)} X = Me, H, DNP, and Tos}).
The group used a strong oxidant to oxidize these metallopeptides to the NiIII oxidation
state. SOD activity of {NiIII(SODM1-Im-H)} was 7(3) x 107 M-1s-1 . The O2.-disproportionation
kinetics of the other three metallopeptides were also investigated using stopped flow kinetics.
They found that all three of the N-substituted imidazole substituted metallopeptides are capable
of facilitating the catalytic disproportionation of O2.-. The metallopeptide with the most electron
rich NiIII-center, {NiIII(SODM1-Im-Me)}, had the slowest O2.- degradation kinetics of the four
metallopeptides investigated (k = 6(1) x 106 M-1 s-1). In contrast, both {NiIII(SODM1-Im-DNP)}
and {NiIII-(SODM1-Im-Tos)} display O2.- degradation kinetics that are faster than {NiIII(SODM116
Im-H)} with k=4(2) x 108 M-1 s-1 and 6(2) x 108M-1 s-1, respectively [44].The electrochemical
values are as shown in Table 1.2.3.1.

All four metallopeptides yield quasireversible NiIII/NiII redox couples in solution. The
more electron donating imidazole donor {NiII(SODM1-Im-Me)}, stabilizes the NiIII oxidation
state to greater extent with a redox couple of E = 282(4) mV versus Ag/Ag+, while the less
electron donating ligands provide for more positive redox potentials with E = 470(10) and 598(5)
mV versus Ag/Ag+ for {NiII(SODM1-Im-DNP)} and NiII-(SODM1-Im-Tos)}, respectively [44].
Weston and coworkers examined several SOD-active metallopeptides based on the first
six and nine residues, respectively, from the N terminus of NiSOD from S. coelicolor. The 3D
NMR solution structure of the peptide exhibits, in contrast with the cis Leu4-Pro5 bond in the
NiSOD enzyme, a trans Leu4-Pro5 bond. They concluded that the finding could have strong
similarity of the proposed catalytic mechanisms of the synthetic metallopeptides and native
NiSOD enzyme [56].
Laurence and coworkers have reported that a coordination sphere of NiSOD can be
mimicked by a tripeptide using, asparagine-cysteine-cysteine (NCC), which exhibited both
quasi-reversible NiII/NiIII with a midpoint potential of 0.72(2) V (vs Ag/AgCl) and SOD activity
17
with IC50 value of 4.1 x 10-5 M. NCC is unique because it is not derived from the sequence of the
parent enzyme and because of its small size, this tripeptide is likely to have better stability and a
lower cost of production than larger peptide alternatives [55].
1.3 Past DTDB (2, 2’-dithiodibenzaldehyde) work of revelance.
Dr. Eichhorn’s group has been able to use 2, 2-dithiodibenzaldehyde (DTDB) as a
precursor in the synthesis of N2S2 and other N/S ligands. The synthesis of DTDB is already an
established methodology which can be found in the literature [45]. The schematic for the
synthesis of DTDB is shown below (Scheme 1.3.1). DTDB provides a stable way for
synthesizing thiolate donating ligands without the need for protecting the thiolate group, thus
allowing the thiolate to coordinate with the metal. The reaction of DTDB with metal-coordinated
primary amines has yielded metal complexes with N/S ligands, which are a result of Schiff- base
condensation and reductive cleavage of the disulfide bond [46]. It is not clear what generates the
reducing equivalent for the disulfide bond.
Scheme 1.3.1 DTDB synthesis schematic.
Among the compounds synthesized using DTDB are those involving chelating NN precursors.
Some of the compounds of relevance to my research are Ni(tsalen) (1) [46b], Ni(NNS)Cl (2),
18
Ni(NNS)NO3 (3), Ni(NNS)NO2 (4), and Ni(NNS)(Im+S)BPh4 (5) [57, 58]. Scheme 1.3.2 shows
some of the compounds that have been synthesized in Dr. Eichhorn’s lab related to my research.
Scheme 1.3.2 Compounds synthesized in our lab related to my research.
19
The advancement of the methodology over the years has led to various ways that have
provided solutions to create a ligand environment that has N2S2 coordination. Prior research in
the group used ethylenediamine (en) to synthesize the tetradentate ligand tsalen (SNNS) that
coordinated with nickel forming 1 (Ni(tsalen)). They also envisioned that in order to prevent
formation of the tetradentate tsalen ligand due to the two primary amines in en reacting with
DTDB, it was necessary to replace en with N, N-dimethylethylenediamine (dmen) which has
only one primary amine available for Schiff-base formation [57], leading to formation of a
tridentate ligand (N2S). This has resulted in the synthesis of compounds 2, 3, 4 and 5. Compound
5 features imine/amine nitrogen coordination and the crystal structure of 5 features a squareplanar N2S2 coordination, with a Ni2+ center and an imidazole N 5.994 Å from the Ni atom, away
from coordination distance; thus it is similar to reduced NiSOD. The isolation of 5 suggested the
synthesis of series of related complexes with N(imine)/N(amine)/S(thiolate)2 coordination
spheres in which one of the thiolates could be systematically changed to provide different
electronic environments. {Ni(NNS)Cl} was chosen as a convenient starting material, as the Cl
ligand could be substituted with various thiolates. A related compound, {Ni(NNS)’Cl}2 (with a
propyl bridge instead of an ethyl bridge) has also been reported [58] and represents an alternative
system for study. This work will be discussed in Chapter 2.

CHAPTER 2
SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF METAL COMPLEXE
2.1 Introduction
The goal of this research is to model the NiSOD active site, which consists of a nickel
center in a square-planar coordination sphere that includes the amine nitrogen of the terminal
histidine, amide nitrogen of the peptide backbone, and two cysteine thiolates [31]. By
synthesizing models for the active site, information about the surrounding peptide ligand
environment could be understood, which could answer some questions, e.g., why the
metalloenzyme chooses amine/amide N coordination with two thiolate coordination and how it
influences the reactivity? Understanding the fundamental chemistry of the metalloenzyme could
lead to answers about the mechanistic details of superoxide disproportionation. By utilizing the
DTDB methodology, our group has previously reported {Ni(NNS)(Im+S)}BPh4 [57]that has
NiN2S2 coordination with an amine and imine donor, which is similar to the active site of
reduced NiSOD. This suggested the possibility of further utilizing DTDB methodology, i.e., the
synthesis of {Ni(NNS)Cl}, to synthesize a series of {Ni(NNS)(SR)} complexes. These
complexes will eventually be compared to new analogs that have NiN2S2 amine/amide N
coordination, thus investigating the effects of the amide in comparison to the imine. We report
several asymmetric NiN2S2 and other related Ni(II) or metal complexes that have been
characterized, thus giving us insight into the electronics and spatial arrangements of these
complexes.
21
The first part of the project was to use the methodology to synthesize NiN2S2 complexes
using a chelating ligand that contains two nitrogen atoms in which one is a primary amine, and in
our case we used N, N-dimethylethylenediamine. Then reacting it with DTDB to give us a
(NNS) tridentate ligand that will coordinate to the Ni, and eventually reacting the complex to
several thiolates to give us NiN2S2 complexes. In the next part of the project, was to synthesize
NiN2S2 using a different chelating ligand i.e. dmap and repeating the methodology as above. The
goal was to compare the effect of the chelate on different series of different thiolates.
2.2 {Ni(NNS)(SR)} Complexes.
2.2.1 Synthesis
{Ni(NNS)Cl} was synthesized as previously reported [57]. The {Ni(NNS)(SR)} complexes were
synthesized by addition of several thiolates: sodium thiophenolate, sodium 4-nitrothiophenolate
and sodium tert-butyl thiolate in MeOH solutions, to {Ni(NNS)Cl}, leading to formation of
{Ni(NNS)SPh} (1), {Ni(NNS)SPhNO2} (2) and {Ni(NNS)StBu} (3) (Scheme 2.2.1.1). The
compounds were purified by crystallization.
22
Scheme 2.2.1.1. Synthetic scheme for {Ni(NNS)SPh} (1), {Ni(NNS)SPhNO2} (2), and
{Ni(NNS)StBu} (3).
The FTIR spectral data for 1, 2, and 3, has CN stretching of frequencies 1605, 1592, 1602 cm-1
respectively, while {Ni(NNS)Cl} has CN stretch at 1617 cm-1. There is no clear correlation
between the electronic properties of the thiolate and the CN stretching force constant as observed
in {Ni(NNS)Cl} compared to 1, 2, and 3.
2.2.2 Structural Characterization.
X-ray quality crystals were grown by vapor diffusion of hexanes (1, 2) or ether (3) into
CH2Cl2 solution. X-ray data collection and structure solution parameters are given in Table A1.
ORTEP drawings of 1, 2, and 3 are shown in Figures 2.2.1 and selected bond distances and
angles are given in Table 2.2.2.1 {Ni(NNS)SPh} (1) crystallizes on a general position in the
monoclinic space group P2(1)/n, while {Ni(NNS)SPhNO2} (2) crystallizes on a general position
in the monoclinic space group Cc. {Ni(NNS)StBu} (3) crystallizes on a general position in the
23
orthorhombic space group Iba2. The methyl and methylene carbons in 3 show disorder which
has been modeled with 2 positions for each atom.
Three crystal structures of compounds having square planar NiN2S2 have been obtained
as an active site model of NiSOD as shown in Figure 2.2.2.1. The structures of all three are very
similar and they reveal four-coordinate square planar NiII centers arising from the tridentate NNS
ligand and the different thiolate ligands. The Ni-N/S distances are as shown in Table 2.2.2.1 and
are variable in line with the electronic nature of the donor atom, as the Ni-N1 (imine) is shorter
than Ni-N2 (amine) in all three structures. The Ni-S1 distance (trans to the imine) is longer than
the Ni-S2 distance (trans to the amine) in all three structures since the imine N has stronger σ
donor influence than N amine, therefore resulting in a larger trans influence.

for clarity).One of the disorder components of 3 has been depicted.

In all three structures, the thiolate substituent is out of the plane of the rest of the
complex. The position of the thiolate substituent with respect to the coordination plane i.e. Cx –
S1 – Ni (Cx carbon that is bonded to S1) is 108.35°, 110.53°, and 112.60° for 1, 2, and 3,
respectively. Since 3 show the highest angle deviation, this could be explained by the bulkiness
of the t-butyl substituent. The deviation of the coordination sphere from ideal square-planar can
27
be assessed by the angle between the planes defined by N1 –Ni – N2 and S1 – Ni - S2, which
would be 0° for an ideal square-planar geometry. The bond angle of plane between N1 – Ni - N2 /
S1 – Ni - S2 is 1.61o, 8.03o and 5.07o for 1, 2, and 3 respectively. All three compounds showed
slight distortion from being a true square plane with 2 having the greatest distortion followed by
3 and 1. However, all three compounds serve as reasonable analogues of the asymmetric NiN2S2
active site geometry of reduced NiSOD.
2.2.3 Electronic Spectroscopy.
Compounds 1-3 are highly soluble in polar aprotic solvents like DMSO, MeCN, CH2Cl2,
THF and DMF, and also are soluble in protic solvents like MeOH. In solvents like MeCN, 1-3
formed colored solutions of brick red which may be presumed to arise from Ni-ligand charge
transfer transitions characteristic of a square planar NiIIN2S2 complexes featuring Imine/amine N
donors [57] (Table 2.2.3.1).

All reported λmax values ranged between 420-460 nm, which is also in the range of observed λmax
for reduced NiSOD of 450 nm [59]. This compares well with other NiN2S2 Imine/amine
complexes reported previously by our group with λmax 435 nm (Ni(NNS)(Im+S)) [57].

2.2.4 Electrochemistry.
Cyclic voltammetry measurements of 1-3 showed similar features. They all showed 3
quasi-reversible redox couples in MeCN solvents (vs Ag/AgCl, RT) table 2.2.4.1.

The couples between 400 to 1000 mV were assigned to ligand-based events while the couples
greater than the 1000 mV were assigned to the NiIII/II couple. The irreversibility of the oxidation
events may be explained by either primary ligand-based oxidation or the poor stability of the
NiIII species that is short-lived [42]. Clearly, the NiIII/II couples are not in the range to catalyze
O2.- disproportionation, but it is not surprising since we do not have amides or a potential 5th
ligand. Therefore, we thought we might add pyrazole to mimic the 5th ligand, which should
eventually lead to observing reversible peak and a reduced potential for the NiIII/II complex.
Table 2.2.4.2 shows the potential values of the compounds after addition of the pyrazole.

We did not observe any reversible peaks as expected. Our results after addition of
pyrazole were expected to have less positive values than without pyrazole; instead we observed a
shift of the couple to more positive in all compounds except in compound 2 first couple. Based
on the data obtained there was not much significant on the potentials that we could conclusively
say that we are stabilizing the NiIII.

0.1 M tetrabutyl ammonium perchlorate at a platinum electrode (3 mm diameter), in the presence
(red line) and absence of pyrazole (green).
Compound 3 had the lowest potential followed by 1 and 2 based on the electrochemical
data obtained (Table 2.2.4.1). These results appear to correlate with the donor effect of S(1),
30
since the oxidation potential of compounds might be expected to be affected by the donor
strength of S(1) (tBu > Ph > NO2Ph). The stronger electron donor donates more electron density
to the metal, making it easier to oxidize. The electrochemical values compared well to other
NiN2S2 of bis(amine) [53] and also imine/amine [57], but there was a significant difference with
amine/amide [54].
2.3 Attempts to synthesize other nickel complexes.
2.3.1 Complexes with pendant N donor
In order to closely model the coordination geometry of NiSOD, we attempted to
synthesize complexes in which the thiolate ligand has a pendant N donor, which would model
the His imidazole available to bind the oxidized Ni atom in NiSOD. The 1st attempt involved: 2aminoethanethiol HCl, which was reacted with NaOH in MeOH to form the sodium thiolate salt.
Reaction of the thiolate salt with {Ni(NNS)Cl} in methanol under nitrogen resulting in the only
species isolated being identified as (Ni(SNS))2, which has been previously reported by us [46]
and others [60]. For the reaction of {Ni(NNS)Cl} with sodium 2-aminoethanethiolate, brown
block crystals were easily formed of (Ni(SNS))2 as shown in Figure 2.3.1.1.
Scheme 2.3.1.1 Schematic formation of compound (Ni(SNS))2
31
The formation of (Ni(SNS))2 must require that unreacted DTDB was present. The DTDB
and Ni may have come from unreacted DTDB/Ni when making {Ni(NNS)Cl}. To avoid this
product, one option was to attempt using sodium 2-(dimethylamino)ethanethiolate instead of
sodium 2-aminoethanethiolate, since the tertiary amine will prevent Schiff-base condensation
with the aldehyde functionality of the DTDB thus preventing the reaction forming (Ni(SNS))2.
As for the reaction of {Ni(NNS)Cl} with sodium 2-(dimethylamino)ethanethiolate in MeOH ;
we have so far been unable to isolate the desired product. However, we did isolate a new
crystalline polymorph of {Ni(NNS)Cl} (5), that crystallizes on a general position in the
monoclinic space group P2(1)/n. A disorder solvent molecule was included.

2.4 Complexes with a propyl bridge
The next part of the project was to use a different chelating ligand, i.e. N, Ndimethyldiaminopropane (dmap) in synthesizing nickel compounds with {Ni(NNS)’(SR)}
arrangements. The goal was to compare the electronics, redox and spatial arrangements of
compounds of {Ni(NNS)(SR)} to compounds with {Ni(NNS)’(SR)} arrangements while
comparing to NiSOD. Utilizing the DTDB methodology, {Ni(NNS)’Cl} was synthesized by
heating, at reflux, DTDB with NiCl2 and dmap in MeOH, mass spectrometry (ms) and FTIR
confirmed the product. {Ni(NNS)’Cl} was reacted with several thiolates (sodium thiophenolate,
sodium 4-nitrothiophenolate and sodium tert-butyl thiolate). A good ms was obtained for
Ni(NNS)’StBu with peaks at 279.7, 301.7 and 391.7 m/z , which can be assigned to
{Ni(NNS)’}+, Na + {Ni(NNS)’}+ and Na + {Ni(NNS)’Stbut}+ respectively as shown in figure
2.4.1. We have not yet been able to obtain crystals of this compound or any other compounds of
the form {Ni(NNS)’(SR)}.

2.5 Other metal complexes
The DTDB methodology has been used successfully to synthesize complexes of Cu, Co
and Ni. In this part of the project, we attempted to make complexes of other metals with NNS, as
an extension of the DTDB methodology. CoCl2, CuCl2 and MnCl2 and dmen were added to
DTDB in MeOH and heated at reflux for 30 minutes. We have been unable to isolate complexes
of the M(NNS)Cl . With Co, we were able to structurally characterize a related complex,
{Co(deaeba)Cl3} (4), having a thiolate S and imine N bond, (deaeba = 2-(2dimethylaminoethyl)benzo(d)isothiazol-2-ium). The deaeba ligand could result from ring closure
of the NNS ligand. Similar chemistry has been previously reported by our group [57,60],
although none resulting in coordination of the ligand. The thiolate probably self reacted with the
imine nitrogen forming a five member heterocycle. {Co(deaeba)Cl3} (4) crystallizes on a general
position in the orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1). An ORTEP showing the 50% thermal
ellipsoids of (4) is shown in figure 2.5.1 and X-ray data collection and structure solution
parameters are given in table A1. It was observed that 4 has longer N1-S1 bond distance
compared to reported deaeba [57] or BBITE 2+ [60](Table 2.5.1). The angles between N1-C8-C9,
C7-N1-S1 and C9-N2-Co1 are 108.82°, 118.95°, and 105.25°, respectively.

2.6.1 General Experimental
Unless otherwise noted, all solvents and reagents were used as received from Aldrich, Acros, and
Fisher Scientific without further purification. 2,2’-dithiodibenzaldehyde [50] and (Ni(NNS)Cl)
[62] were synthesized by literature methods. Dry solvents were distilled from
sodium/benzophenone (tetrahydrofuran and toluene), calcium hydride (methylene chloride and
acetonitrile) or Mg(OMe)2 (methanol) as specified. Air-sensitive compounds were manipulated
in a Vacuum Atmospheres, Inc. Nexus One dry box, equipped with a variable temperature
freezer, or on a double manifold Schlenk line using standard Schlenk techniques. IR spectra were
35
recorded on a Nicolet Avatar 360 FTIR. Electrospray mass spectra were obtained on a Finnigan
LCQ DECA spectrometer. UV-Vis data was collected on a Hitachi U-2010 spectrophotometer.
Electrochemical data was collected on an EG &G Princeton Applied Research potentiostat model
263A with a Pt working electrode, Pt counter electrode, and Ag/AgCl reference electrode.
Elemental analyses were obtained from M-H-W Laboratories, Phoenix, AZ. For the X-ray
structures, crystals were selected under a polarizing microscope, affixed to a nylon cryoloop
(Hampton Research) using oil (Paratone-n, Exxon), and mounted in the cold stream of a Bruker
Kappa – ApexII area detector diffractometer. The temperature at the crystal was maintained at
150 K using a Cryostream 700 EX low – temperature apparatus (Oxford Cryosystems). The unit
cells were determined from the setting angles of the reflections collected in 36 frames of data.
Data were measured using graphite mono-chromated molybdenum Kα radiation (λ = 0.71073 Å)
collimated to a 0.6 mm diameter and a CCD detector at a distance of 50 mm from the crystal
with a combination of phi and omega scans. A scan width of 0.5 degrees and scan time of 10
seconds were employed. Data collection, reduction, structure solution, and refinement were
performed using the Bruker Apex2 suite (v2.0-2). All available reflections to 2θmax = 52o were
harvested and corrected for Lorentz and polarization factors with Bruker SAINT (v6.45).
Reflections were then corrected for absorption, interframe scaling, and othersystematic errors
with SADABS 2004/1. The structures were solved (direct methods) and refined (full – matrix
least – squares against F2) with the Bruker SHELXTL package (v6.14-1). All non – hydrogen
atoms were refined using anisotropic thermal parameters. Hydrogen atoms were included at ideal
positions and were not refined.

CHAPTER 3
CONCLUSION
We have established that DTDB methodology can be successfully used to synthesize
compounds having NiN2S2 coordination. We have characterized three square-planar
{Ni(NNS)(SR)} compounds with N2S2 coordination that serve as potential first-generation
synthetic models for the active site of reduced NiSOD. The electrochemical data on these
compounds displayed quasireversible redox couples; and the couples between 400 to 1000 mV
were assigned to the ligand-based events while the couples greater than the 1000 mV were
assigned to the NiIII/II couple. It was found that the thiolate donor on S(1) had effect on the
electrochemical potential, since the oxidation potential of compounds might be affected by the
donor strength of S (1) tBu > Ph > NO2Ph as compound 3 had the lowest potential followed by 1
then 2. After addition of pyrazole, we observed an increase in potential instead of a decrease,
suggesting NiIII is not stabilized. The observed NiIII/II couples are not in the range to catalyze O2.disproportionation, but it is not surprising since we do not have amides or 5th ligand on these
compounds. Compounds 1-3 exhibited absorption frequencies ranging from 420-460 nm, which
were assigned to LMCT by comparison to similar complexes. Future direction would be
recommended to synthesize compounds having amide donors so as to compare the effects of the
amide in relation to the imine. Also to synthesize compounds with different NN chelates for
example, dmap; would also serve as good comparison in studying the effects of different chelates
on the electrochemical potentials and SOD activities.
