Abstract
Heme-containing monooxygenases are able to catalyze two different classes of oxidation reactions. The first class includes oxygenation reactions (hydroxylation, epoxidation, N- or S-oxide formation, etc.) which are mediated by an electrophilic oxidative species. The second class is represented by the oxidative deformylation of aldhehydes and involves a nucleophilic oxidant as active intermediate. The reductive activation of molecular oxygen by cytochromes P450 generates a nucleophilic iron(III)-peroxo species which produces by protonation an electrophilic high-valent iron-oxo [formally an iron(V)oxo] responsible for electrophilic oxygen atom transfers. The nucleophilic properties of the iron(III)-peroxo intermediate in cytochrome P450 are due to the porphyrin ring acting as electron reservoir and also to the negative charge accumulated on the proximal cysteine during the initial reduction step of the catalytic cycle. The nature of the high-valent iron-oxo species generated in the catalytic cycle of heme-peroxidases will be also discussed. Among the different methods for studying the oxygenation reactions mediated by high-valent metal-oxo porphyrin complexes, the recent discovery of the “oxo-hydroxo tautomerism” provides a useful tool to investigate the mechanism of O-atom transfer reactions in aqueous media.
