Molybdenum(V) sites in xanthine oxidase and relevant analog complexes: comparison of molybdenum-95 and sulfur-33 hyperfine coupling

super(95)Mo (I = 5/2) hyperfine matrices have been defined from multifrequency (2-4 and 9 GHz) electron spin resonance spectra of the Rapid Type 1, Rapid Type 2, and Slow centers of milk xanthine oxidase. The present work suggests a specific mechanism: reduction of the Mo super(VI)OS resting form to...

Zusammenfassung:super(95)Mo (I = 5/2) hyperfine matrices have been defined from multifrequency (2-4 and 9 GHz) electron spin resonance spectra of the Rapid Type 1, Rapid Type 2, and Slow centers of milk xanthine oxidase. The present work suggests a specific mechanism: reduction of the Mo super(VI)OS resting form to Mo super(V) or Mo super(IV) causes occupation of a highly covalent MoS pi -antibonding orbital with a consequence increase in the basicity of the thio ligand.
