Summary of the Last Lecture
Metal-carbonyl complexes• Bonding is due to synergic OC M s-donation and M
CO p-back donation• Reduction in vco stretching frequency is related to the
extent of back-bonding• Number of vCO in IR and Raman can be used to work out
structure
O2 complexes• Haemoglobin and myoglobin bind weakly to O2 allowing
transport and storage of highly reactive molecule
Today’s lecture• N2 complexes and Metal-Metal bonding

Slide 5/18
Molecular Orbitals for N2 and CO
• CO: bond order = 3 (C≡O triple bond) HOMO is dominated by C 2pz (~ C “lone pair”)
LUMOs are dominated by C 2px and 2py:
M
C
O
• N2: bond order = 3 (N≡N triple bond) HOMO delocalized over both N (not a “lone pair”)
LUMOs are also shared equally:M
N

Metal-N2 Complexes
• N2 bonds to transition metals in a similar way to CO (see Lecture 5 Slide 5) σ-donation from N≡N: M -back donation from M: N≡N: (reduces N≡N bond strength) synergic weaker than for M-CO

Slide 7/18
Fixing Nitrogen
• Nature needs to obtain nitrogen from atmospheric N2
nitrogen content of soil is often the growth limiting factor around 17 million tonnes of NH3 per year industrially natural fixation about 2.5 times more important
• To use atmospheric N2, nature uses metal-enzymes: nitrogen fixation (nitrogenase) converts N2 to NH4
+
nitrification converts NH4+ to NO3
- which can be taken up by plants
• Nitrogenase faces a number of problems: thermodynamic stability of N≡N bond means reaction is unfavourable N2 is non-polar and unreactive: efficient enzymes/catalysts are required M-N2 bonds are weak

Nitrogenase – Fe protein
• Nitrogenase contains Fe and Mo and is made up of two proteins ‘Fe protein’ contains a pseudo-cubic [4Fe-4S] cluster:
Fe S

S(cysteine)
(cysteine)S
S(cysteine)
(cysteine)S
Cluster contains 2 × Fe2+ and 2 × Fe3+
Tetrahedral coordinate about Fe from 2 × S2 and 2 × S from cysteine
role: oxidation of Fe2+ to Fe3+ provides electrons
(energy for oxidation comes from hydrolysis of2 ATP molecules per electron)

Nitrogenase – FeMo protein
• Site and mode of attachment of N2 to [Mo7Fe-8S] cluster is not known probably Fe rather than Mo possibly between two central Fe atoms:
role of Mo: asymmetry in cluster probably induces a small polarity in N2 bond, facilitating electrophilic
attack

NO Synthase and Nitrophorin
• NO is used as a signalling molecule in mammals• NO synthase is a haem protein which produces NO upon receipt of a
signal• Nitrophorin is found in some bloodsucking parasites (“kissing bugs”)
• it is a haem protein that binds NO tightly pH = 5 (in saliva of bug)• it releases NO at pH = 7.4 (in blood of victim)• NO release signals to dilate blood vessels, aiding ‘blood donation’
