Superoxide, O2•−, is formed in all living organisms that come in contact with air, and,
depending upon its biological context, it may act as a signaling agent, a toxic species, or a …

Conspectus Nickel excels at facilitating selective radical chemistry, playing a pivotal role in
metalloenzyme catalysis and modern cross-coupling reactions. Radicals, being nonpolar …

The discovery of superoxide dismutases (SODs), which convert superoxide radicals to
molecular oxygen and hydrogen peroxide, has been termed the most important discovery of …

We present a new benchmark set of metalloenzyme model reaction energies and barrier
heights that we call MME55. The set contains 10 different enzymes, representing eight …

The monovalent oxidation state of nickel has received a growing amount of attention in
recent years, in part due to its suggested catalytic role in a number of metalloprotein …

Exploring new catalysts for efficient organic synthesis is among the most attractive topics in
chemistry. Here, using Ni (OAc) 2/LA as catalyst (LA: Lewis acid), a novel catalyst strategy …

Urease catalyzes the hydrolysis of urea to form ammonia and carbamate, inducing an
overall pH increase that affects both human health and agriculture. Inhibition, mutagenesis …

Conspectus Nickel superoxide dismutase (NiSOD) is a nickel-containing metalloenzyme
that catalyzes the disproportionation of superoxide through a ping-pong mechanism that …

Abstract In vielen Metallenzymen sind Schwefel‐enthaltende Liganden an Elektronen‐
Transfer‐Reaktionen beteiligt. In dem hier diskutierten biomimetischen Ansatz wird der …

Although nickel-based materials exhibit similar catalytic activity to palladium in organic
synthesis, the selective oxidation of inert C–H bonds in the absence of other co-catalysts …
