Metals/Ions
| Metals/Ions | Comment | Organism | Structure |
|---|---|---|---|
| copper | study on reaction of copper(II)-nitrito complexes with tridentate and tetradentate, with either O,O'-bidentate or O-unidentate modes of nitrite binding to the cupric center . Differing modes of nitrite coordination to the copper(II) ion lead to differing kinetic behavior | synthetic construct |  |
| Iron | study on the reducing ability of the ferrous heme center, using two different tetraarylporphyrinate-iron(II) complexes, one with electron-donating paramethoxy peripheral substituents and the other with electron withdrawing 2,6-difluorophenyl substituents. The ferrous heme gives in all cases the reducing equivalent required to convert nitrite to nitric oxide, but the reduction ability of the heme center does not play a key role in the observed overall reaction rate | synthetic construct | |
