Here we report bidirectional steered molecular dynamics simulations of oxime drug (Ortho-7) translocation through the gorge of tabun intoxicated enzyme, in which time dependent external forces accelerate the translocation event. The simulations reveal the participation of drug-enzyme hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interactions and water bridges between them. Employing nonequilibrium theorems that recovers the free energy from irreversible work done, we reconstruct potential of mean force along the translocation pathway such that the desired quantity represents an unperturbed system. The potential locates the binding sites and barriers for the drug to translocate inside the gorge. Configurational entropic contribution of the protein-drug binding entity and the role of solvent translational mobility in the binding energetics is further assessed.}, number= {7}, doi= {10.1371/journal.pone.0040188}} .

DFT studies indicate that the closed‐shell singlet (CSS), open‐shell singlet (OSS), and triplet electronic structures of this species are close in energy, with the OSS spin configuration being the lowest in energy for all tested functionals. Singlet‐state CASSCF calculations revealed a significant multireference character for these complexes. The closed‐shell singlet wavefunction dominates, but these complexes have a significant (≈8–16 \%) open‐shell singlet [d7‐RuI(L)(trop2dad.−)] contribution mixed into the ground state. In agreement with their ambivalent electronic structure, these complexes reveal both metal‐ and ligand‐centered reactivity. Most notable are the reactions with AdN3, diazomethane, and a phosphaalkyne leading to scission of the C−C bond of the diazadiene (dad) moiety of the trop2dad ligand, resulting in net (formal) nitrene, carbene, or P≡C insertion in the dad C−C bond, respectively. Supporting DFT studies revealed that several of the ligand‐based reactions proceed via low‐barrier radical‐type pathways, involving the dad.− ligand radical character of the OSS or triplet species.}} .

Herein we carried out a high-throughput computational investigation of the thermodynamic stability of different adducts in various functionalized Mn(I) based pincer complexes. We used a combination of density functional theory (DFT) and density functional tight binding (DFTB) calculations to analyze [[EQUATION]] of > 700 (M(X)-L(H)) intermediates based on functionalized variants of four pincer type ligand scaffolds derived from PCP, CNC, PNP and SNS ligands. We discovered linear scaling relations between [[EQUATION]] of various species. Strongest correlations were found between species of similar size and chemical nature e.g. [[EQUATION]] correlated best with [[EQUATION]] and worst with [[EQUATION]] . Such scaling relations can be useful for property based screening of catalysts and selection of (co)solvent/substrate/base for optimized reaction conditions. We also investigated the influence of the ligand backbone and the functionalization of donor and backbone sites in the ligand. Our analysis reveals the crucial role of the second coordination sphere functionalization for the reactivity of the complexes with impact in some cases exceeding that of the variation of the functional groups directly attached to the donor atoms.}} .
