Synthesis, X-ray structure and ascorbic oxidation properties of ternary α-amino acid Schiff base-bipy Cu(II) complexes as functional models for ascorbic oxidase

Three ternary copper(II) complexes [Cu(5-bromo-salTyr)(bipy)]·1/ 2CH3OH (1), [Cu(5-bromo-salLue)(bipy)]·CH3OH (2) and [Cu(5-bromo-salTrp)(bipy)]·3CH3OH (3) (where 5-bromo-salTyr, 5-bromo-salLue and 5-bromo-salTrp are tridentate Schiff base ligands derived from the condensation of 5-bromosalicylaldehyde with tyrosine, leucine and tryptophan, respectively, and bipy is 2,2′-bipyridine) have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, electronic, IR spectroscopies, magnetic measurement and cyclic voltammetry. The complexes, 1 and 3 have been also structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction technique. Crystal structures of 1 and 3 complexes displayed a distorted square-pyramidal geometry around Cu(II). The complexes are one-electron paramagnetic and show one d-d transition and one LMCT bands near 664 and 378 nm in aqueous methanol, respectively. The electrochemical studies of 1-3 in DMF medium exhibit an irreversible Cu(II)/Cu(I) redox couple in the potential range of -0.3 to 0.5 V and one additional irreversible anodic wave associated with oxidation of ligands about 0.8 V. These complexes are also catalytically active in oxidation of ascorbic acid in presence of dioxygen, models the ascorbate oxidation property of the Cu(II) sites in ascorbate oxidase. The catalytic cycle is effective for a [H2A]:[complex] mole ratio of about 100 for 1-3.

Kinetics and Mechanism of Oxidation of L-Ascorbic Acid by Chloropentamminecobaltate(III) in Acidic Media

The kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of L-ascorbic acid by chloropentamminecobaltate(III) ions have been studied by a spectroscopic method as a function of pH, ascorbic acid concentration, ionic strength and temperature in acidic aqueous solutions.The pH dependence of the process can be ascribed, in the acidity range investigated (pH = 0.8-2), to the direct oxidation of the ascorbic acid molecule, for which k = 7.3 * 10-5 M-1 s-1 at 25 deg C, ΔH(excit.) = 102 KJ*mol-1 and ΔS(excit.) = 19 JK-1mol-1.The results are discussed in reference to the data for this reaction in weakly acidic and basic media and for the oxidation by other oxidants.
