The title complex (1) has been prepared by reaction of ZrCl4 with 1,2,3,4-(tetraphenyl)- cyclopenta-1,3-dienyl lithium (2). The phenyl substituents on the metallocene ligands exert both steric and electronic effects on the active site obtained by activation of 1 with MAO. Thus this catalytic system shows lower polymerization activity than in case of unsubstituted or methyl-substituted ligands and leads to the formation of ethylene oligomers.

The infrared and Raman spectra of the title complex were recorded and assignments for the VO+2 , PO3-4 and V-O and V-N skeletal vibrations are proposed. The results are of interest in relation to the vibrational-spectroscopic properties of the active site of vanadium haloperoxidases.

The reaction of Ni(TPAP)(COD) {where TPAP = [(NC5H4)CH2]3P(NC2H4)3N} with Fe(CO)5 resulted in the isolation of the title heterobimetallic NiFe(TPAP)(CO)5 complex di-μ-carbonyl-tricarbonyl[2,8,9-tris(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-2,5,8,9-tetraaza-1-phosphabicyclo[3.3.3]undecane]ironnickel, [FeNi(C24H30N7P)(CO)5]. Characterization of the complex by 1H and 31P NMR as well as IR spectroscopy are presented. The structure of NiFe(TPAP)(CO)5 reveals three terminally bound CO molecules on Fe0, two bridging CO molecules between Ni0 and Fe0, and TPAP coordinated to Ni0. The Ni—Fe bond length is 2.4828 (4) Å, similar to that of the reduced form of the active site of NiFe hydrogenase (∼2.5 Å). Additionally, a proximal pendant base from one of the non-coordinating pyridine groups of TPAP is also present. Although involvement of a pendant base has been cited in the mechanism of NiFe hydrogenase, this moiety has yet to be incorporated in a structurally characterized synthetic mimic with key structural motifs (terminally bound CO or CN ligands on Fe). Thus, the title complex NiFe(TPAP)(CO)5 is an unique synthetic model for NiFe hydrogenase. In the crystal, the complex molecules are linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming undulating layers parallel to (100). Within the layers, there are offset π–π [intercentroid distance = 3.2739 (5) Å] and C—H...π interactions present. The layers are linked by further C—H...π interactions, forming a supramolecular framework.

Proton magnetic resonance and chemical reactivity studies have demonstrated the presence of a tyrosine charge relay system in angiotensin which is analogous to the serine charge relay system present at the active site of serine proteases. Receptor activation by angiotensin can be explained by electronic effects deriving from an interaction of the charge relay system with stacking of the histidine and phenylalanine rings. Experiments with serine protease inhibitors suggest the possibility that mechanistic features of the interaction of angiotensin with its receptors may apply to other ‘phenoxyl’ hormones including certain peptides, steroids and catecholamines.
