ABSTRACT
Nitrite (NO2-) serves as a pool of nitric oxide (NO) in biological systems under hypoxic conditions, and it is transformed to NO by nitrite reductase (NiR) enzyme in the presence of acid. However, NO synthases generate NO in normoxic conditions. Previously, acid-induced NO2- reduction chemistry was modeled on mono-metallic 3d-metals, generating metal-nitrosyls or NO(g) with H2O or H2O2 products. Herein, to understand the relative potency of a bimetallic system, we report the acid-induced reductive conversion of η2-bound NO2- to NO on CuII-CoII centers of a hetero-bimetallic CuIInitrito-CoII complex, [(LN8H)CuIINO2-CoII]3+ (CuII-NO2--CoII, 2) bearing an octadentate N8-cryptand ligand (LN8H). The CuII-NO2--CoII generates [CuII(LN8H)CoII]4+ (1) upon reaction with one equiv. acid (HClO4, H+ ions source) with NO(g) via a presumed transient nitrousacid (ONOH) intermediate species. Likewise, this NO2- reduction was found to form H2O, which is believed to be from the decomposition of H2O2, an intermediate species. In addition, complex 2, in the presence of more than one equiv. H+ ions also showed the formation of NO(g) with H2O. Mechanistic investigations, using 15N-labeled-15NO2-, 18O-labeled-18O14N16O- and 2H-labeled-DClO4 (D+ source), revealed that the N-atom and O-atom in the 14/15NO and 14N18O gases are derived from NO2- ligand and H-atom in H2O derived from H+-source, respectively.
