Calculated optical spectrum of model oxyheme complex

The optical spectrum of a model oxyheme complex has been calculated using a new intermediate neglect of differential overlap (INDO-SCF-CI ) method that allows for the inclusion of configuration interaction and transition metals. In addition to the porphyrin π→π* transitions common to all heme proteins, four weak x,y polarized transitions observed only in oxyheme complexes have been calculated and assigned to excitations involving the lowest-empty highly delocalized (Oπ, dπ) orbital. Two broad z-polarized bands observed in the single-crystal polarized absorption spectra of oxymyoglobin and hemoglobin have also been calculated. Controversy exists over the assignment of these transitions and, in particular, over the extent of involvement of the oxygen ligand. Our calculations assign the weaker near-IR visible band mainly to the d σ dπ→ dπ* excitations and the more intense UV band mainly to a_2u → dσ* excitations. While significant participation (25%) of the highly delocalized (Oπ, dπ) virtual orbital is also found, these z-polarized transitions need not be totally unique to oxyheme complexes, in keeping with experimental observation.     

A theoretical study of the electromagnetic properties of ferrocene and the ferrocenium ion

An iterative extended Hückel molecular orbital calculation was used to obtain wave functions for the ground state of ferrocene and several low lying states of the ferrocenium ion. Photoemission spectra in terms of relative ionization potentials and the electric field gradient at the iron nucleus were calculated for ferrocene andg values and the electric field gradient were calculated for the ferrocenium ion. These values are in good agreement with experiment. The nature of the molecular orbitals was compared with results of previous semi-empirical andab initio calculations.

Calculated electronic spectra of model ferric cytochrome P450 complexes

Restricted open-shell ground state properties and electronic spectra of two closely related low-spin, ferric, 6-coordinate, model cytochrome P450 complexes, one with a methyl mercaptide and the other a mercaptan as the second axial ligands, have been calculated with a newly modified, semiempirical INDO-SCF-CI method. The sensitivity of the calculated spectra to protonation of the sixth axial ligand, and the ability of the method to predict characteristic spectral features for the complexes investigated, are determined. Assignment of transitions, including xy- and z-polarized transitions, are made and compared with experimental observations where available. In particular, the origin of the anomalous split Soret spectrum observed in low-spin ferric complexes with mercaptide but not a mercaptan is investigated. Finally, a two part hypothesis is presented which provides a general explanation for the origin of both the observed split Soret and the red-shifted normal Soret in various ferrous and ferric P450 complexes in terms of the ground state orbital characters and simple symmetry considerations.

Solid-Phase Synthesis of a Monofunctional trans-a(2)Pt(II) Complex Tethered to a Single-Stranded Oligonucleotide

Cross-linking ability is possible with the oligonucleotide-tethered, monofunctional trans-Pt(II) complex shown. It was synthesized by a novel solid-phase approach comprising conjugation of immobilized tetrathymidylic acid with a trans-a(2)Pt(II) building unit, ammonolysis, and transformation of the resulting complex (R=1-N-cyclohexylmethylthyminate) into the chloro derivative (R=Cl). a=NH(2)CH(3), T=thymine.
