Detailed Solution for Test: Bio Inorganic- 2 - Question 16

manganese(Mn)

Metals exert important functions in the chloroplast of plants, where they act as cofactors and catalysts in the photosynthetic electron transport chain. In particular, manganese (Mn) has a key function because of its indispensable role in the water-splitting reaction of photosystem II (PSII).

Test: Bio Inorganic- 2 - Question 21

A well known naturally occurring organometallic compound is:

Test: Bio Inorganic- 2 - Question 22

The red color of oxyhaemoglobin is mainly due to the:

Detailed Solution for Test: Bio Inorganic- 2 - Question 22

Each hemoglobin protein is made up subunits called hemes, which are what give blood its red color. More specifically, the hemes can bind iron molecules, and these iron molecules bind oxygen. The blood cells are red because of the interaction between iron and oxygen i.e. intra ligand  π–π* transition. 

When the iron is oxygenated(Fe+3), it becomes red. When the iron is deoxygenated(Fe+2), it becomes blue. This is why your veins are blue.

Test: Bio Inorganic- 2 - Question 23

Hemoglobin is an oxygen carrying. The correct statement about oxy–hemoglobin is that:

Detailed Solution for Test: Bio Inorganic- 2 - Question 23

Hemoglobin is a protein found in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the body's tissues and

returns carbon dioxide from the tissues to the lungs. Hemoglobin contains a heme group, which is a complex of iron

and porphyrin. When oxygen binds to the iron in heme, it forms oxyhemoglobin.

The correct statement about oxyhemoglobin is that the metal is lowspin in 3 oxidation state while dioxygen is in

02- form. Let's break this down:

Metal is lowspin in 3 oxidation state:

- The iron in heme is in the +2 oxidation state when it is not bound to oxygen.

- When oxygen binds to iron, it becomes oxidized to the +3 oxidation state.

- In the lowspin state, the electrons in the iron atom pair up in the d-orbitals, resulting in a lower magnetic moment.

Dioxygen is in 02- form:

- When oxygen binds to iron, it accepts two electrons from iron to form a peroxide bond.

- This results in the formation of 02-.

So, the correct statement is that the metal (iron) in oxyhemoglobin is lowspin in the +3 oxidation state, while

dioxygen is in the 02- form.

In summary, the correct answer to the question is option 'A'.

Test: Bio Inorganic- 2 - Question 29

During oxygen transport by hemerythrin, oxygen is bound as:

Detailed Solution for Test: Bio Inorganic- 2 - Question 29

The mechanism of dioxygen binding is unusual. Most O2 carriers operate via formation of dioxygen complexes, but hemerythrin holds the O2 as a hydroperoxide (HO2, or -OOH). The site that binds O2 consists of a pair of iron centres. The iron atoms are bound to the protein through the carboxylate side chains of a glutamate and aspartates as well as through five histidine residues. Hemerythrin and myohemerythrin are often described according to oxidation and ligation states of the iron center:

Fe2+—OH—Fe2+deoxy (reduced)

Fe2+—OH—Fe3+semi-met

Fe3+—O—Fe3+—OOHoxy (oxidized)

Fe3+—OH—Fe3+— (any other ligand)met (oxidized)

The uptake of O2 by hemerythrin is accompanied by two-electron oxidation of the diferrous centre to produce a hydroperoxide (OOH) complex. The binding of O2 is roughly described in this diagram:
