Transcript
• Metal coordination in GOLD is modelled as ’pseudo-hydrogen bonding’. Metal-ligand
interactions will typically involve the metal binding to, for example, carboxylate ions,
deprotonated histidines (i.e. negatively charged), and phenolates. Therefore metals can be
considered to bind to H-bond acceptors and the metal will compete with H-bond donors for
interaction.
