Histidine-metal interactions are utilized in many biological materials as reinforcing crosslinks, and in particular, are believed to contribute as reversible crosslinks to the intrinsic self-recovery behavior of mussel byssal threads. In this contribution

Modified His-His dipeptides have been reacted with copper(I) salts to model active-site Cu ions bound by contiguous His residues in certain oxygen-activating copper proteins, as well as amyloid β-peptide. Chelation of copper(I) by these ligands affords linear, two-coordinate complexes as studied structurally by X-ray absorption spectroscopy. The complexes are robust toward oxidation, showing limited to no reactivity with O2, and they bind CO weakly. Reaction with a third ligand (N-methylimidazole) affords complexes with a markedly different structure (distorted T-shaped) and reactivity, binding CO and oxidizing rapidly upon exposure to dioxygen.
