The detoxification of nitric oxide (NO) by bacterial NO reductase (NorBC) represents a paradigm of how NO can be detoxified anaerobically in cells. In order to elucidate the mechanism of this enzyme, model complexes provide a convenient means to assess potential reaction intermediates. In particular, there have been many proposed mechanisms that invoke the formation of a hyponitrite bridge between the heme b(3) and nonheme iron (Fe-B) centers within the NorBC active site. However, the reactivity of bridged iron hyponitrite complexes has not been investigated much in the literature. The model complex {[Fe(OEP)](2)(mu-N2O2)} offers a unique opportunity to study the electronic structure and reactivity of such a hyponitrite-bridged complex. Here we report the detailed characterization of {[Fe(OEP)](2)(mu-N2O2)} using a combination of IR, nuclear resonance vibrational spectroscopy, electron paramagnetic resonance, and magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy along with SQUID magnetometry. These results show that the ground-state electronic structure of this complex is best described as having two intermediate-spin (S = 3/2) iron centers that are weakly antiferromagnetically coupled across the N2O22- bridge. The analogous complex {[Fe(PPDME)](2)(mu-N2O2)} shows overall similar properties. Finally, we report the unexpected reaction of {[Fe(OEP)](2)(mu-N2O2)} in the presence and absence of 1-methylimidizole to yield [Fe(OEP)(NO)]. Density functional theory calculations are used to rationalize why {[Fe(OEP)](2)(mu-N2O2)} cannot be formed directly by dimerization of [Fe(OEP)(NO)] and why only the reverse reaction is observed experimentally. These results thus provide insight into the general reactivity of hyponitrite-bridged iron complexes with general relevance for the N-N bond-forming step in NorBC.
