  • Title: Synthesis of cytochrome c oxidase models bearing a Tyr244 mimic.
    Author: Collman JP, Decréau RA, Zhang C.
    Journal: J Org Chem; 2004 May 14; 69(10):3546-9. PubMed ID: 15132568.
    Abstract:
    A close structural analogue of the metal-free cytochrome c oxidase active site has been synthesized. This model has a proximal imidazole tail and three distal imidazole pickets attached to a porphyrin. One distal imidazole is cross-linked to a phenol, mimicking Tyr(244). The strategy behind the successful synthesis of this regioisomerically pure model involved discovering the best sequence to introduce the phenol-substituted imidazole and employing a fluorinated substituent.
