Characterization of LigandsSalenH2 and BPG were characterized by
1H NMR. 1H NMR is used elucidate the
structure of compound by measuring the number and chemical shift of protons.

Metalloenzymes are proteins that catalyze a specific reaction and contain metals that are tightly bound at the active site. Hemoglobin is a common
metalloprotein that transfers O2 in the blood.
A subclass of metalloenzymes are dioxygenases. Dioxygenases transfer both oxygen atoms of O2 into substrate. They have the ability to cleave and
degrade aromatic compounds and play an important role in many
biological functions, such as mammalian metabolism.1
A specific dioxygenase, Quercetin 2,3 Dioxygenase (QDO), is unique in that
it is the only known dioxygenase that is copper dependent. The copper
center is bound to 3 histidines, 1 glutamate, and the antioxidant quercetin.2
QDO is found in bacteria, where they use the enzyme to degrade aromatic
compounds. Aromatic compounds are one of the most prevalent and
persistent pollutants in the environment. A synthetic model that mimics the active site of QDO, could be used for possible bioremediation purposes.
Characterization
Future Work• Synthesize and characterize Fe2+(BPG) complex to model the active site of quercetin dioxygenase.
• Study reactivity of Fe2+(BPG) and substrates.
