The ability of bimetallic homo- and heteronuclear complexes of two spiro-linked ligands, viz. a biazacrown (i.e., 2,6,10,14,18,22-hexaazaspiro[11.11]tricosane (1)) and an azacrown-crown ether (i.e., 14,17,20,23,26-pentaoxa-2,6,10-triaza-spiro[11.15]heptacosane (2)), to promote the cleavage of the phosphoester linkage of dinucleoside 3',5'-phosphates and the phosphoric anhydride bridge of dinucleoside 5',5'-triphosphates was studied. In both reactions, the bimetallic homonuclear Cu2+ and Zn2+ complexes were better catalysts than their monometallic counterparts. The acceleration was two- to five-fold with the phosphoester cleavage and 3- to 20-fold with the phosphoric anhydride cleavage. Interestingly, the most-efficient catalyst of the phosphoester cleavage was the heterodinuclear Ni2+,Zn2+ complex of 1, the catalytic activity of which was up to 5- and 100-fold that of the homodinuclear Zn2+ and Ni2+ complexes, respectively. Moreover, this cooperative acceleration was observed to depend on the identity of the 5'-linked nucleoside: 3',5'-UpU and 3',5'-ApU were cleaved much faster than 3',5'-UpA, and no cooperative acceleration was observed with 3',5'-ApA. The reaction was second-order in hydroxide ion concentration, suggesting that a double deprotonation took place on going from the initial to the transition state. Evidently, in addition to deprotonation of the attacking 2'-OH group, N(3)H of the 5'-linked uridine was displaced by one of the metal ions of the cleaving agent. With the phosphoric anhydride cleavage, no similar cooperativity of two different metal ions was observed, but the greatest rate-acceleration was achieved with the homodinuclear Cu2+ complexes.
