Oxo-bridged dinuclear Fe(III) complexes generally exhibit a storngly enhanced Fe-O-Fe symmetric stretching vibration in their resonance Raman spectra upon excitation into an oxo .fwdarw. Fe(III) change-transfer band. The Fe-O-Fe mode has been identified in the proteins herythrin and ribonucleotide reductase, as well as in a number of monobridged and tribridged model compounds, from its intensity, its shift upon 18O substitution, and its frequency dependence with respect to the Fe-O-Fe angle. Resonance Raman excitation profiles for the proteins and model compounds show that the Fe-O-Fe enhancement maxima tend to correspond to minor oxo .fwdarw. Fe(III) CT bands inthe absorption spectra. The molar scattering intensity of .nu.s(Fe-O-Fe) relative to .nu.1(SO4) is .apprx. 10 times greater for the proteins (with values of 300-1200) than for the model complexes (with values of 10-90). The only model compounds that were found to exhibit as great a .nu.s(Fe-O-Fe) enhancement as in the prot eins were the tribridged Fe2O(HBpz3)2(OAc)2 and [Fe2O(tmip)2(OPr)2]2+ complexes (with values of 320 and 380, respectively). These complexes have the closest structural similarity to the known dinuclear iron site in hemerythrin. Factors which elevate the intensity of the Fe-O-Fe symmetric stretch are (i) multiple bridging groups (2- to 4-fold enhancement), (ii) unsaturated nitrogen ligands cis to the oxo group (a further 2- to 4-fold enhancement), and (iii) unsaturated nitrogen ligands trans to the oxo group (additional 3- to 8-fold enhancement compared to cis ligands). The strong scattering intensity of the Fe-O-Fe mode in ribonucleotide reductase is indicative of one or two imidazole ligands trans to the oxo bride, as in hemerythrin. Both protiens exhbiit a more intense .nu.as (Fe-O-Fe) than is observed with symmetric model complexes; this suggests that the tow metal atoms in each dinuclear iron center are not equivalent.
