Cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) forms very stable complexes with the alpha-axial 5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole (alpha-DMB) nucleotide base when dissociated from the Co(III) center in vitamin B(12) (CNCbl, K(CB[7]) = (7.5 +/- 0.5) x 10(4) dm(3) mol(-1)) and coenzyme B(12) (AdoCbl, K(CB[7]) = (3.02 +/- 0.35) x 10(6) dm(3) mol(-1)). The inclusion of alpha-DMB ligand facilitates its release from the metal center and its subsequent protonation, with significantly higher pK(base-off) values of 3.77 and 6.61, than determined for the free CNCbl (0.11) and AdoCbl (2.67), respectively. Addition of CB[7] to the base-on form of CNCbl at pH 2 provides for a direct measurement of the rate constant for the dissociation of the alpha-DMB ligand from the Co center (k = (4.6 +/- 0.2) x 10(-2) s(-1), DeltaH = 93 +/- 2 kJ mol(-1), DeltaS = +41 +/- 6 J K(-1) mol(-1)). The beta-axial 5'-deoxyadenosyl ligand (beta-Ado) on coenzyme B(12) is bound more weakly by a second CB[7] host (K(CB[7]) = (1.1 +/- 0.2) x 10(3) dm(3) mol(-1)), however inclusion of the beta-Ado ligand has no effect on the kinetics of its heterolytic photodissociation from the Co(III) center.
葫芦[7]脲(CB[7])与从维生素B12的Co(III)中心解离出来的α-轴向5,6-二甲基苯并咪唑(α-DMB)核苷酸碱基形成非常稳定的配合物(氰钴胺,K(CB[7]) = (7.5 ± 0.5)×10^4 dm³ mol⁻¹)和辅酶B12(腺苷钴胺,K(CB[7]) = (3.02 ± 0.35)×10^6 dm³ mol⁻¹)。α-DMB配体的包合促进了其从金属中心的释放及其随后的质子化,其pK(碱基脱离)值分别为3.77和6.61,比游离氰钴胺(0.11)和腺苷钴胺(2.67)测定的值高得多。在pH 2下将CB[7]添加到氰钴胺的碱基形式中,可以直接测量α-DMB配体从Co中心解离的速率常数(k = (4.6 ± 0.2)×10⁻² s⁻¹,ΔH = 93 ± 2 kJ mol⁻¹,ΔS = +41 ± 6 J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹)。辅酶B12上的β-轴向5'-脱氧腺苷配体(β-Ado)与第二个CB[7]主体的结合较弱(K(CB[7]) = (1.1 ± 0.2)×10³ dm³ mol⁻¹),然而β-Ado配体的包合对其从Co(III)中心的异裂光解动力学没有影响。
