A Cp*Rh(III)-dithiophosphate cofactor with "latent" catalytic activity was developed to construct an artificial metalloenzyme representing a new type of biohybrid catalyst which is capable of promoting C(sp 2 )-H bond functionalization within the β-barrel structure of nitrobindin (NB). To covalently conjugate the Cp*Rh(III) cofactor into a specific position of the hydrophobic cavity of NB via a maleimide-Cys linkage, strong chelation of the dithiophosphate ligand is employed to protect the rhodium metal center against attack by nucleophilic amino acid residues in the protein. It is found that subsequent addition of the Ag + ion induces dissociation of the dithiophosphate ligands, thereby activating the catalytic activity of the Cp*Rh(III) cofactor. The resulting "active" biohybrid catalyst promotes cycloaddition of acetophenone oxime with diphenylacetylene via C(sp 2 )-H bond activation. This catalytic activity is enhanced 2.3-fold with the introduction of two glutamate residues (A100E/L125E) adjacent to the Cp*Rh(III) cofactor. The Cp*Rh(III) cofactor with switchable activity from a "latent" form to an "active" form provides a new strategy for generating biohybrid catalysts incorporating a variety of highly reactive transition metal complexes specifically within its protein scaffolds.
