摘要

The neutral hydrolysis of for-mamide in water is a suitable reference to quantify the efficiency of proteolytic enzymes.However,experimental data for this reaction has only very recently been obtained and the kinetic constant determined experimentally is significantly higher than that predicted by previous theoretical estimations.In this work,we have investigated in detail the possible mechanisms of this reaction.Several solvent models have been considered that represent a considerable improvement on those used in previous studies.Density functional and ab initio calculations have been carried out on a system which explicitly includes the first solvation shell of the formamide molecule.Its interaction with the bulk has been treated with the aid of a dielectric continuum model.Molecular dynamics simulations at the combined density functional/molecular mechanics level have been carried out in parallel to better understand the structure of the reaction intermediates in aqueous solution.Overall,the most favored mechanism predicted by our study involves two reaction steps.In the first step,the carbonyl group of the formamide molecule is hydrated to form a diol intermediate.The corresponding transition structure involves two water molecules.From this intermediate,a water-assisted proton transfer occurs from one of the hydroxy groups to the amino group.This reaction step may lead either to the formation of a new reaction intermediate with a marked zwitterionic character or to dissociation of the system into ammonia and formic acid.The zwitterionic intermediate dissociates quite easily but its lifetime is not negligible and it could play a role in the hydrolysis of substituted amides or peptides.The predicted pseudo-first-order kinetic constant for the rate-limiting step (the first step) of the hydrolysis reaction at 25 deg C (3.9x10~(-10) s~(-1)) is in excellent agreement with experimental data (1.1x10~(-10) s~(-1)).
