Thermochemical Studies of Ni(II) and Zn(II) Ternary Complexes using Ion Mobility-Mass Spectrometry
Résumé
This article describes an experimental protocol using electrospray-ion mobilitymass spectrometry (ES-IM-MS) and energy-resolved threshold collision-induced dissociation (TCID) to measure the thermochemistry of the dissociation of negativelycharged [amb+M(II)+NTA]ternary complexes into two product channels: [amb+M(II)] + NTA or [NTA+M(II)]-+ amb, where M = Zn or Ni and NTA is nitrilotriacetic acid. The complexes contain one of the alternative metal binding (amb) heptapeptides with the primary structures acetyl-His 1-Cys 2-Gly 3-Pro 4-Tyr 5-His 6-Cys 7 or acetyl-Asp 1-Cys 2-Gly 3-Pro 4-Tyr 5-His 6-Cys 7 , where the amino acids' Aa 1,2,6,7 positions are the potential metal-binding sites. Geometry-optimized stationary states of the ternary complexes and their products were selected from quantum chemistry calculations (presently the PM6 semi-empirical Hamiltonian) by comparing their electronic energies and their collision cross-sections (CCS) to those measured by ES-IM-MS. From the PM6 frequency calculations, the molecular parameters of the ternary complex and its products model the energy-dependent intensities of the two product channels using a competitive TCID method to determine the threshold energies of the reactions that relate to the 0 K enthalpies of dissociation (ΔH 0). Statistical mechanics thermal and entropy corrections using the PM6 rotational and vibrational frequencies provide the 298 K enthalpies of dissociation (ΔH 298). These methods describe an EI-IM-MS routine that can determine thermochemistry and equilibrium constants for a range of ternary metal ion complexes.
