X-ray crystal structure shows that the two zinc atoms reside within the adjacent ligand compartments and are bridged by the endogenous alkoxo-O from ligand and one exogenous carboxylate from acetate with a syn-syn mode. The coordination geometry of two zinc atoms is a distorted trigonal bipyramid with the pyridyl-N atoms and bridging alkoxo-O atom providing the equatorial donor set. Such coordination geometry observed in this complex is similar to that found in the dinuclear unit ofphospholipase C.展开更多

The heterobimetallic cobalt-copper complex bearing three benzimidazole ligands for copper, as cytochrome c oxidase active site model, was applied to the surface of glassy carbon electrode to show electrocatalytic activity for O 2 reduction in aqueous solution at an acidity level close to physiological pH value. The kinetic parameters of this electrocatalytic process were obtained.展开更多
