Arylthiazoline Unit as a Ferric Ion Chelating Moiety in Siderophores: The Coordination Chemistry of Anguibactin and Its Analogs
The 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)- and 2-(2,3-dihydroxyphenyl)thiazoline motifs appear repeatedly across microbial siderophores, yet the thermodynamic properties of their Fe(III) complexes remain fragmentarily described. Herein we present the Fe(III) coordination chemistry of anguibactin (Ang), the siderophore of Vibrio anguilla...
