We report on the phenomenon of protein-accelerated catalysis in the field of artificial metalloenzymes based on the non-covalent incorporation of biotinylated rhodium–diphosphine complexes in (strept)avidin as host proteins. By incrementally varying the [Rh(COD)(Biot-1)]+ vs. (strept)avidin ratio, we show that the enantiomeric excess of the produced acetamidoalanine decreases slowly....

The cationic chloro complexes [(arene)Ru(H2N∩NH2)Cl]+ (1: arene = C6H6; 2: arene = p-MeC6H4iPr; 3: arene = C6Me6) have been synthesised from the corresponding arene ruthenium dichloride dimers and enantiopure (R,R or S,S)...

The nicotinamide coenzyme NADH, consumed in enantioselective reduction of ketones catalysed by alcohol dehydrogenases, needs to be regenerated in order to maintain enzymatic activity. We therefore studied the catalytic potential of the cationic complexes [(η5-C5Me5)Rh(N∩N)Cl]+ (1: N∩N = 1,10-phenanthroline; 2: N∩N =...
