A dinuclear nickel complex modeling of the Nid(ii)-Nip(i) state of the active site of acetyl CoA synthase

Abstract

The dinuclear Ni(II)-Ni(I) complex NiII(dadtEt)NiI(SDmp)(PPh3) was synthesized as a Ni(II)dNi(I)p model of the A-cluster in acetyl CoA synthase. This complex was reacted with Co(dmgBF2)2(Me)(Py) and KSDmp successively to afford Ni(dadtEt)Ni(Me)(SDmp), which further reacts with CO to afford the acetylthioester CH3C(O)SDmp via reductive elimination.
