Visualising the carboxylate shift at a bioinspired diiron(ii) site in the solid state

Abstract

A novel pyrazolate-based diiron(II) complex shows five different binding modes of exogenous carboxylate ligands in a single crystal structure. Temperature dependent X-ray data reveal thermally induced disorder due to carboxylate dynamics that resemble the carboxylate shift, as it is known from various diiron enzyme active sites.
