Abstract
C-Nitroso compounds (RNO, R = alkyl and aryl) are byproducts of drug metabolism and bind to heme proteins, and their heme-RNO adducts are isoelectronic to ferrous nitroxyl (NO-/HNO) complexes. Importantly, heme-HNO compounds are key intermediates in the reduction of NO to N2O and nitrite to ammonium in the nitrogen cycle. Ferrous heme-RNO complexes act as stable analogs of these species, potentially allowing for the investigation of the vibrational and electronic properties of unstable heme-HNO intermediates. In this paper, a series of six-coordinate ferrous heme-RNO complexes (where R = iPr and Ph) were prepared using the TPP2- and 3,5-Me-BAFP2- co-ligands, and tetrahydrofuran, pyridine, and 1-methylimidazole as the axial ligands (bound trans to RNO). These complexes were characterized using different spectroscopic methods and X-ray crystallography. The complex [Fe(TPP)(THF)(iPrNO)] was further utilized for nuclear resonance vibrational spectroscopy (NRVS), allowing for the detailed assignment of the Fe-N(R)O vibrations of a heme-RNO complex for the first time. The vibrational properties of these species were then correlated with those of their HNO analogs, using DFT calculations. Our studies support previous findings that RNO ligands in ferrous heme complexes do not elicit a significant trans effect. In addition, the complexes are air-stable, and do not show any reactivity of their RNO ligands towards NO. So although ferrous heme-RNO complexes are suitable structural and electronic models for their HNO analogs, they are unsuitable to model the reactivity of heme-HNO complexes. We further investigated the reaction of our heme-RNO complexes with different Lewis acids. Here, [Fe(TPP)(THF)(iPrNO)] was found to be unreactive towards Lewis acids. In contrast, [Fe(3,5-Me-BAFP)(iPrNO)2] is reactive towards all of the Lewis acids investigated here, but in most cases the iron center is simply oxidized, resulting in the loss of the iPrNO ligand. In the case of the Lewis acid B2(pin)2, the reduced product [Fe(3,5-Me-BAFP)(iPrNH2)(iPrNO)] was identified by X-ray crystallography.

Abstract
The study of molecular adsorption is crucial for understanding various chemical processes. Spectroscopy offers a convenient and non-invasive way of probing structures of adsorbed states and can be used for real-time observation of molecular binding profiles, including both structural and energetic information. However, deciphering atomic structures from spectral information using the first-principles approach is computationally expensive and time-consuming because of the sophistication of recording spectra, chemical structures, and their relationship. Here, we demonstrate the feasibility of a data-driven machine learning approach for predicting binding energy and structural information directly from vibrational spectra of the adsorbate by using CO adsorption on iron porphyrin as an example. Our trained machine learning model is not only interpretable but also readily transferred to similar metal-nitrogen-carbon systems with comparable accuracy. This work shows the potential of using structure-encoded spectroscopic descriptors in machine learning models for the study of adsorbed states of molecules on transition metal complexes.

Abstract
In the realm of dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), the 3d transition metals as photosensitizers are scarcely studied. In the present work, electronic structures, FMO, MEP surfaces, NBO analysis, energetics and photophysical properties of earth abundant metals (Mn, Fe and Co) based metalloporphyrins coordinated with NHC-carbene have been explored by using DFT and TDDFT calculations. According to formation energies and energy decomposition analysis (EDA), the cobalt based metalloporphyrins species are found to be more stable while in contrast manganese based species are predicted as more reactive among all. Also, from the ligation point of view, the TPP (meso-tetraphenylporphyrin) ligand forms more steady and rigid coordination as compare to the TTP (meso-tetratolylporphyrin) ligand. FMO analysis also support these observations. NBO and SNO results support the electronic configurations as well as unveil the controversial bonding pattern of NHCcarbon and metal atom and found that there is σ-bonding present between the metal and the NHCcarbon by the overlapping of sp-hybridized orbitals of carbenecarbon and sp/d hybrid orbital of the metal atom. TDDFT results show that the highest light harvesting efficiency (LHE) of all the studied species is found under the range of 360 nm - 380 nm (λ) and this may due to the presence of longer π-conjugations. In-depth investigation of this work may help to design new robust energy harvesting systems for high energy conversion efficiency based on earth abundance metals. Our results are in well agreement with the available experimental findings.

Abstract
The visible and Mössbauer spectra of [Fe(II)(Por)L2] and [Fe(II)(Por)L(CO)] complexes (where Por = protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) or tetra(p-sulfophenyl)porphyrin (TPPS) and L = an aliphatic or aromatic nitrogenous base) are reported and discussed. The results are compared to those of previously reported [Fe(II)(Por)L(CO)] complexes (where Por = PPIX, TPPS, PMXPP, TPP, OMTBP and OEP; L = a nitrogenous aromatic ligand) and HbCO (where Hb = haemoglobin) and MyCO (where My = myoglobin). A new approach, to extracting information from the Mössbauer parameters has been developed by plotting those of the [Fe(II)(Por)L2] complexes against those of [Fe(II)(Por)L(CO)] complexes for the same ligands, has yielded a series of trend lines that show a significant dependence on both the nature of the porphyrin and also of the nitrogenous ligand. Different trend lines were found for aromatic nitrogenous ligands to aliphatic nitrogenous ligands showing that the porphyrins could donate different amounts of charge to the Fe(II) cations as the L ligand changed, and hence, they display electron sink properties. From the plots, it was shown that haemoglobin and myoglobin both bind CO very strongly compared to the model complexes studied herein. Using the reported structural and Mössbauer data for the [Fe(II)(Por)L2] and [Fe(II)(Por)L(CO)] complexes, it proved possible and instructive to plot the Mössbauer parameters against a number of the bond lengths around the Fe(II) cations. The interpretation of the resulting trend lines both supported and facilitated the extension of our findings enabling further understanding of the geometry of the bonding in CO haemoglobin and CO myoglobin.

Abstract
There has been considerable research interest in the ligand nature of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs). In this work, two six-coordinate NHC iron porphyrin complexes [FeII(TTP)(1,3-Me2Imd)2] (TTP = tetratolylporphyrin, 1,3-Me2Imd = 1,3-dimethylimidazol-2-ylidene) and [FeIII(TDCPP)(1,3-Me2Imd)2]ClO4 (TDCPP = 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(2,6-dichlorophenyl)porphyrin) are reported. Single-crystal X-ray characterizations demonstrate that both complexes have strongly ruffled conformations and relatively perpendicular ligand orientations which are forced by the sterically bulky 1,3-Me2Imd NHC ligands. Multitemperature (4.2-300 K) and high magnetic field (0-9 T) Mössbauer and low-temperature (4.0 K) EPR spectroscopies definitely confirmed the low-spin states of [FeII(TTP)(1,3-Me2Imd)2] (S = 0) and [FeIII(TDCPP)(1,3-Me2Imd)2]ClO4 (S = 1/2). The similarity of 1,3-Me2Imd and imidazole, as well as the well-established correlations between the ligand nature and spectroscopic characteristics of [FeII,III(Porph)(L)2]0,+ (Porph: porphyrin; L: planar base ligand) species, allowed direct comparisons between the pair of ligands which revealed for the first time that NHC has a stronger π-acceptor ability than imidazoles, in addition to its very strong σ-donation.

Abstract
We have examined the effects of changing the temperature on the structure of a six-coordinate (tetraphenylporphinato)iron(II) complex, [Fe(TPP)(1-MeIm)(CO)] C[Formula: see text]H[Formula: see text]. In particular, we examined whether the coordination group parameters, [Formula: see text]. the Fe–C and C–O parameters showed any effects. The study, carried out between 100 and 330 K, revealed no effect on those coordination group parameters. The axial Fe–N(Im) bond distance showed a small effect. The peripheral phenyl groups show a somewhat larger bond distance effect with bond distance increases of 0.02 to 0.03 Å. The population of the disordered solvent molecule favors one site as the temperature is lowered.

Abstract
Cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) has a binuclear active site composed of a high-spin heme group and a tris-histidine-ligated copper ion (CuB). By using two different porphyrin models derived by Gunter (H2TPyPP) and us (H2TImPP), we have isolated several mono- and binuclear complexes including one carbonyl and three chloride derivatives which are determined by 100 K single-crystal X-ray. Low-temperature (4 K) EPR and multitemperature (295-25 K) Mössbauer investigations on the products not only confirmed the spin states of the two metal ions (S = 5/2 Fe3+ and S = 1/2 Cu2+) but also revealed the intermolecular interactions and intramolecular couplings which are in accordance with the crystal structural features.

We have prepared a new crystalline derivative of [Fe(TpivPP)(NO2)2][Formula: see text] with the [K(222)][Formula: see text] cation. The newly determined structure of the anion resolves an ambiguity about the relative orientation of the two axial nitrite ligands which were found in a previous structure determination with a different cation. The two NO[Formula: see text] ligands are found to have a relative perpendicular orientation with Fe[Formula: see text]–N(NO2) distances of 1.974 (6) Åand 1.994 (6) Å. The average Fe[Formula: see text]–N[Formula: see text] distance in the low-spin six-coordinate iron(III) porphyrinate derivative is 1.987 (3) Å.

Abstract
Heme-copper oxidases (HCOs) are terminal enzymes on the mitochondrial or bacterial respiratory electron transport chain, which utilize a unique heterobinuclear active site to catalyze the 4H+/4e- reduction of dioxygen to water. This process involves a proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) from a tyrosine (phenolic) residue and additional redox events coupled to transmembrane proton pumping and ATP synthesis. Given that HCOs are large, complex, membrane-bound enzymes, bioinspired synthetic model chemistry is a promising approach to better understand heme-Cu-mediated dioxygen reduction, including the details of proton and electron movements. This review encompasses important aspects of heme-O2 and copper-O2 (bio)chemistries as they relate to the design and interpretation of small molecule model systems and provides perspectives from fundamental coordination chemistry, which can be applied to the understanding of HCO activity. We focus on recent advancements from studies of heme-Cu models, evaluating experimental and computational results, which highlight important fundamental structure-function relationships. Finally, we provide an outlook for future potential contributions from synthetic inorganic chemistry and discuss their implications with relevance to biological O2-reduction.

Abstract
Long-lived excitons formed upon visible light absorption play an essential role in photovoltaics, photocatalysis, and even in high-density information storage. Here, we describe a self-assembled two-dimensional metal-organic crystal, composed of graphene-supported macrocycles, each hosting a single FeN4 center, where a single carbon monoxide molecule can adsorb. In this heme-like biomimetic model system, excitons are generated by visible laser light upon a spin transition associated with the layer 2D crystallinity, and are simultaneously detected via the carbon monoxide ligand stretching mode at room temperature and near-ambient pressure. The proposed mechanism is supported by the results of infrared and time-resolved pump-probe spectroscopies, and by ab initio theoretical methods, opening a path towards the handling of exciton dynamics on 2D biomimetic crystals. Long-lived excitons in a two-dimensional metal-organic crystal can be produced by visible light and detected by infrared radiation. Here, the authors show that the excitonic state of a biomimetic macrocycle can be ‘read’ by measuring the vibrations of an adsorbed ligand.

Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of two new iron(II) porphine complexes is described. Porphine, the simplest porphyrin derivative, has been studied less than other synthetic porphyrins owing to synthetic difficulties and solubility issues. The subjects of this study are two six-coordinate iron(II) species further coordinated by CO and an imidazole ligand (either 1-methylimidazole or 2-methylimidazole). The two species have very different CO stretching frequencies, with the 2-methylimidazole complex having a very low stretching frequency of 1923 cm-1 compared to the more usual 1957 cm-1 for the 1-methylimidazole derivative. The very low frequency is the result of environmental effects; the oxygen atom of the carbonyl forms a hydrogen bond with an adjacent coordinated imidazole with a hydrogen atom from the N-H group. The two species, with their differing C-O stretches, also display substantial differences in the values of the Fe-C and C-O bond distances, as determined by their X-ray structures. The two bond distances are strongly correlated ( R = 0.98) in the direction expected for the classical π-backbonding model. The two bond distances are also strongly correlated with the C-O stretching frequencies. We can conclude that the Fe-C and C-O stretches are quite representative of the observed bond distances; their stretching frequencies are not affected by substantial mode mixing.

Abstract
![]()
Nuclear resonance
vibrational spectroscopy (NRVS; also known as
nuclear inelastic scattering, NIS) is a synchrotron-based method that
reveals the full spectrum of vibrational dynamics for Mössbauer
nuclei. Another major advantage, in addition to its completeness (no
arbitrary optical selection rules), is the unique selectivity of NRVS.
The basics of this recently developed technique are first introduced
with descriptions of the experimental requirements and data analysis
including the details of mode assignments. We discuss the use of NRVS
to probe 57Fe at the center of heme and heme protein derivatives
yielding the vibrational density of states for the iron. The application
to derivatives with diatomic ligands (O2, NO, CO, CN–) shows the strong capabilities of identifying mode
character. The availability of the complete vibrational spectrum of
iron allows the identification of modes not available by other techniques.
This permits the correlation of frequency with other physical properties.
A significant example is the correlation we find between the Fe–Im
stretch in six-coordinate Fe(XO) hemes and the trans Fe–N(Im)
bond distance, not possible previously. NRVS also provides uniquely
quantitative insight into the dynamics of the iron. For example, it
provides a model-independent means of characterizing the strength
of iron coordination. Prediction of the temperature-dependent mean-squared
displacement from NRVS measurements yields a vibrational “baseline”
for Fe dynamics that can be compared with results from techniques
that probe longer time scales to yield quantitative insights into
additional dynamical processes.

Abstract
The vibrational spectrum of a six-coordinate nitrosyl iron porphyrinate, monoclinic [Fe(TpFPP)(1-MeIm)(NO)] (TpFPP=tetra-para-fluorophenylporphyrin; 1-MeIm=1-methylimidazole), has been studied by oriented single-crystal nuclear resonance vibrational spectroscopy (NRVS). The crystal was oriented to give spectra perpendicular to the porphyrin plane and two in-plane spectra perpendicular or parallel to the projection of the FeNO plane. These enable assignment of the FeNO bending and stretching modes. The measurements reveal that the two in-plane spectra have substantial differences that result from the strongly bonded axial NO ligand. The direction of the in-plane iron motion is found to be largely parallel and perpendicular to the projection of the bent FeNO on the porphyrin plane. The out-of-plane Fe-N-O stretching and bending modes are strongly mixed with each other, as well as with porphyrin ligand modes. The stretch is mixed with v50 as was also observed for dioxygen complexes. The frequency of the assigned stretching mode of eight Fe-X-O (X=N, C, and O) complexes is correlated with the Fe-XO bond lengths. The nature of highest frequency band at ≈560 cm(-1) has also been examined in two additional new derivatives. Previously assigned as the Fe-NO stretch (by resonance Raman), it is better described as the bend, as the motion of the central nitrogen atom of the FeNO group is very large. There is significant mixing of this mode. The results emphasize the importance of mode mixing; the extent of mixing must be related to the peripheral phenyl substituents.

Abstract
Oriented single-crystal nuclear resonance vibrational spectroscopy (NRVS) has been used to obtain all iron vibrations in two {FeNO}(6) porphyrinate complexes, five-coordinate [Fe(OEP)(NO)]ClO4 and six-coordinate [Fe(OEP)(2-MeHIm)(NO)]ClO4. A new crystal structure was required for measurements of [Fe(OEP)(2-MeHIm)(NO)]ClO4, and the new structure is reported herein. Single crystals of both complexes were oriented to be either parallel or perpendicular to the porphyrin plane and/or axial imidazole ligand plane. Thus, the FeNO bending and stretching modes can now be unambiguously assigned; the pattern of shifts in frequency as a function of coordination number can also be determined. The pattern is quite distinct from those found for CO or {FeNO}(7) heme species. This is the result of unchanging Fe-N(NO) bonding interactions in the {FeNO}(6) species, in distinct contrast to the other diatomic ligand species. DFT calculations were also used to obtain detailed predictions of vibrational modes. Predictions were consistent with the intensity and character found in the experimental spectra. The NRVS data allow the assignment and observation of the challenging to obtain Fe-Im stretch in six-coordinate heme derivatives. NRVS data for this and related six-coordinate hemes with the diatomic ligands CO, NO, and O2 reveal a strong correlation between the Fe-Im stretch and Fe-N(Im) bond distance that is detailed for the first time.

Abstract
Heme-carbonyl complexes are widely exploited for the insight they provide into the structural basis of function in heme-based proteins, by revealing the nature of their bonded and nonbonded interactions with the protein. This report presents two novel results which clearly establish a FeCO vibrational signature for crystallographically verified pentacoordination. First, anisotropy in the NRVS density of states for ν(Fe-C) and δ(FeCO) in oriented single crystals of [Fe(OEP)(CO)] clearly reveals that the Fe-C stretch occurs at higher frequency than the FeCO bend and considerably higher than any previously reported heme carbonyl. Second, DFT calculations on a series of heme carbonyls reveal that the frequency crossover occurs near the weak trans O atom donor, furan. As ν(Fe-C) occurs at lower frequencies than δ(FeCO) in all heme protein carbonyls reported to date, the results reported herein suggest that they are all hexacoordinate.

Abstract
Disorder in the position of the dioxygen ligand is a well-known problem in dioxygen complexes and, in particular, those of picket fence porphyrin species. The dynamics of Fe-O2 rotation and tert-butyl motion in three different picket fence porphyrin derivatives has been studied by a combination of multitemperature X-ray structural studies and Mössbauer spectroscopy. Structural studies show that the motions of the dioxygen ligand also require motions of the protecting pickets of the ligand binding pocket. The two motions appear to be correlated, and the temperature-dependent change in the O2 occupancies cannot be governed by a simple Boltzmann distribution. The three [Fe(TpivPP)(RIm)(O2)] derivatives studied have RIm = 1-methyl-, 1-ethyl-, or 2-methylimidazole. In all three species there is a preferred orientation of the Fe-O2 moiety with respect to the trans imidazole ligand and the population of this orientation increases with decreasing temperature. In the 1-MeIm and 1-EtIm species the Fe-O2 unit is approximately perpendicular to the imidazole plane, whereas in the 2-MeHIm species the Fe-O2 unit is approximately parallel. This reflects the low energy required for rotation of the Fe-O2 unit and the small energy differences in populating the possible pocket quadrants. All dioxygen complexes have a crystallographically required 2-fold axis of symmetry that limits the accuracy of the determined Fe-O2 geometry. However, the 80 K structure of the 2-MeHIm derivative allowed for resolution of the two bonded oxygen atom positions and provided the best geometric description for the Fe-O2 unit. The values determined are Fe-O = 1.811(5) Å, Fe-O-O = 118.2(9)°, O-O = 1.281(12) Å, and an off-axis tilt of 6.2°. Demonstration of the off-axis tilt is a first. We present detailed temperature-dependent simulations of the Mössbauer spectra that model the changing value of the quadrupole splitting and line widths. Residuals to fits are poorer at higher temperature. We believe that this is consistent with the idea that population of the two conformers is related to the concomitant motions of both Fe-O2 rotations and motions of the protecting tert-butyl pickets.

Abstract
Inspired by the chemistry relevant to dioxygen storage, transport and activation by metalloproteins, in particular for heme/copper oxidases, and carbon monoxide binding to metal-containing active sites as a probe or surrogate for dioxygen binding, a series of heme derived dioxygen and CO complexes have been designed, synthesized, and characterized with respect to their physical properties and reactivity. The focus of this study is in the description and comparison of three types heme-superoxo and heme-CO adducts. The starting point is in the characterization of the reduced heme complexes, [(F8)FeII], [(PPy)FeII] and [(PIm)FeII], where F8, PPy and PIm are iron(II)-porphyrinates and where PPy and PIm possess a covalently tethered axial base pyridyl or imidazolyl group, respectively. The spin-state properties of these complexes vary with solvent. The low temperature reaction between O2 and these reduced porphyrin FeII complex yield distinctive low spin heme-superoxo adducts. The dioxygen binding properties for all three complexes are shown to be reversible, via alternate argon or O2 bubbling. Carbon monoxide binds to the reduced heme-FeII precursors to form low spin heme-CO adducts. The implications for future investigations of these heme O2 and CO adducts are discussed.

Abstract
The low-frequency vibrational characterization of the spin-crossover complex, five-coordinate cyano(tetraphenylporphyrinato)iron(II), [Fe(TPP)(CN)](-), is reported. Nuclear resonance vibrational spectroscopy has been used to measure all low-frequency vibrations involving iron at several temperatures; this yields vibrational spectra of both the low- (S = 0) and high-spin (S = 2) states. Multitemperature oriented single-crystal measurements facilitate assignments of the vibrational character of all modes and are consistent with the DFT-predicted spectra. The availability of the entire iron vibrational spectrum allows for the complete correlation of the modes between the two spin states. These data demonstrate that not only do the frequencies of the vibrations shift to lower values for the high-spin species as would be expected owing to the weaker bonds in the high-spin state, but also the mixing of iron modes with ligand modes changes substantially. Diagrams illustrating the changing character of the modes and their correlation are given. The reduced iron-ligand frequencies are the primary factor in the entropic stabilization of the high-spin state responsible for the spin crossover.

Abstract
NO is an important signaling molecule in human tissue. However, the mechanisms by which this molecule is controlled and directed are currently little understood. Nitrophorins (NPs) comprise a group of ferriheme proteins originating from blood-sucking insects that are tailored to protect and deliver NO via coordination to and release from the heme iron. Therefore, the kinetics of the association and dissociation reactions were studied in this work using the ferroheme-CO complexes of NP4, NP4(D30N), and NP7 as isoelectronic models for the ferriheme-NO complexes. The kinetic measurements performed by nanosecond laser-flash-photolysis and stopped-flow are accompanied by resonance Raman and FT-IR spectroscopy to characterize the carbonyl species. Careful analysis of the CO rebinding kinetics reveals that in NP4 and, to a larger extent, NP7 internal gas binding cavities are located, which temporarily trap photodissociated ligands. Moreover, changes in the free energy barriers throughout the rebinding and release pathway upon increase of the pH are surprisingly small in case of NP4. Also in case of NP4, a heterogeneous kinetic trace is obtained at pH 7.5, which corresponds to the presence of two carbonyl species in the heme cavity that are seen in vibrational spectroscopy and that are due to the change of the distal heme pocket polarity. Quantification of the two species from FT-IR spectra allowed the fitting of the kinetic traces as two processes, corresponding to the previously reported open and closed conformation of the A-B and G-H loops. With the use of the A-B loop mutant NP4(D30N), it was confirmed that the kinetic heterogeneity is controlled by pH through the disruption of the H-bond between the Asp30 side chain and the Leu130 backbone carbonyl. Overall, this first study on the slow phase of the dynamics of diatomic gas molecule interaction with NPs comprises an important experimental contribution for the understanding of the dynamics involved in the binding/release processes of NO/CO in NPs.

Abstract
The well-established presence of histidine donors in binding sites of Ni-containing biomolecules prompts the study of orientational preference and stereodynamic nature of flat monodentate ligands (L = imidazoles, pyridine and an N-heterocyclic carbene) bound to planar N(2)SNi moieties. Square planar [N(2)SNiL](n+) complexes are accessed through bridge-splitting reactions of dimeric, thiolate-S bridged [N(2)SNi](2) complexes. The solid state molecular structures of three mononuclear products, and three monothiolate bridged dinickel complexes, reveal that the plane of the added monodentate ligand orients largely orthogonal to the N(2)SNiL square plane. Variable temperature (1)H NMR characterization of dynamic processes and ground state isomer ratios of imidazole complexes in their stopped exchange limiting spectra, readily correlate with density functional theory (DFT)-guided interpretation of Ni-L rotational activation barriers. Full DFT characterization finds Ni-L bond lengthening as well as a tetrahedral twist distortion in the transition state, reaching a maximum in the NHC complex, and relating mainly to the steric hindrance derived both from the ligand and the binding pocket. In the case of the imidazole ligands a minor electronic contribution derives from intramolecular electrostatic interactions (imidazole C-2 C-H(delta+)- - S(delta-) interaction). Computational studies find this donor-acceptor interaction is magnified in O-analogues, predicting coplanar arrangements in the ground state of N(2)ON(imid)Ni complexes.

Abstract
This paper presents oriented single-crystal Nuclear Resonance Vibrational Spectroscopy (NRVS) data for the six-coordinate (6C) ferrous heme-nitrosyl model complex [(57)Fe(TPP)(MI)(NO)] (1; TPP(2-) = tetraphenylporphyrin dianion; MI = 1-methylimidazole). The availability of these data enables for the first time the detailed simulation of the complete NRVS data, including the porphyrin-based vibrations, of a 6C ferrous heme-nitrosyl, using our quantum chemistry centered normal coordinate analysis (QCC-NCA). Importantly, the Fe-NO stretch is split by interaction with a porphyrin-based vibration into two features, observed at 437 and 472 cm(-1). The 437 cm(-1) feature is strongly out-of-plane (oop) polarized and shows a (15)N(18)O isotope shift of 8 cm(-1) and is therefore assigned to nu(Fe-NO). The admixture of Fe-N-O bending character is small. Main contributions to the Fe-N-O bend are observed in the 520-580 cm(-1) region, distributed over a number of in-plane (ip) polarized porphyrin-based vibrations. The main component, assigned to delta(ip)(Fe-N-O), is identified with the feature at 563 cm(-1). The Fe-N-O bend also shows strong mixing with the Fe-NO stretching internal coordinate, as evidenced by the oop NRVS intensity in the 520-580 cm(-1) region. Very accurate normal mode descriptions of nu(Fe-NO) and delta(ip)(Fe-N-O) have been obtained in this study. These results contradict previous interpretations of the vibrational spectra of 6C ferrous heme-nitrosyls where the higher energy feature at approximately 550 cm(-1) had usually been associated with nu(Fe-NO). Furthermore, these results provide key insight into NO binding to ferrous heme active sites in globins and other heme proteins, in particular with respect to (a) the effect of hydrogen bonding to the coordinated NO and (b) changes in heme dynamics upon NO coordination. [Fe(TPP)(MI)(NO)] constitutes an excellent model system for ferrous NO adducts of myoglobin (Mb) mutants where the distal histidine (His64) has been removed. Comparison to the reported vibrational data for wild-type (wt) Mb-NO then shows that the effect of H bonding to the coordinated NO is weak and mostly leads to a polarization of the pi/pi* orbitals of bound NO. In addition, the observation that delta(ip)(Fe-N-O) does not correlate well with nu(N-O) can be traced back to the very mixed nature of this mode. The Fe-N(imidazole) stretching frequency is observed at 149 cm(-1) in [Fe(TPP)(MI)(NO)], and spectral changes upon NO binding to five-coordinate ferrous heme active sites are discussed. The obtained high-quality force constants for the Fe-NO and N-O bonds of 2.57 and 11.55 mdyn/A can further be compared to those of corresponding 5C species, which allows for a quantitative analysis of the sigma trans interaction between the proximal imidazole (His) ligand and NO. This is key for the activation of the NO sensor soluble guanylate cyclase. Finally, DFT methods are calibrated against the experimentally determined vibrational properties of the Fe-N-O subunit in 1. DFT is in fact incapable of reproducing the vibrational energies and normal mode descriptions of the Fe-N-O unit well, and thus, DFT-based predictions of changes in vibrational properties upon heme modification or other perturbations of these 6C complexes have to be treated with caution.

Abstract
Determinants of the Fe-CO and C-O stretching frequencies in (imidazole)heme-CO adducts have been investigated via density functional theory (DFT) analysis, in connection with puzzling characteristics of the heme sensor protein CooA and of the H-NOX (Heme-Nitric Oxide and/or OXygen binding) family of proteins, including soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC). The computations show that two mechanisms of Fe-histidine bond weakening have opposite effects on the nuFeC/nuCO pattern. Mechanical tension is expected to raise nuFeC with little change in nuCO whereas the weakening of H-bond donation from the imidazole ligand has the opposite effect. Data on CooA indicate imidazole H-bond weakening associated with heme displacement, as part of the activation mechanism. The computations also reveal that protein-induced distortion of the porphyrin ring, a prominent structural feature of the H-NOX protein TtTar4H (Thermoanaerobacter tengcongensis Tar4 protein heme domain), has surprisingly little effect on nuFeC or nuCO. However, another structural feature, strong H-bonding to the propionates, is suggested to account for the weakened back bonding that is evident in sGC. TtTar4H-CO itself has an elevated nuFeC, which is successfully modeled as a compression effect, resulting from steric crowding in the distal pocket. nuFeC/nuCO data, in conjunction with modeling, can provide valuable insight into mechanisms for heme-protein modulation.

Abstract
The synthesis, characterization, and X-ray structures of three low-spin (nitrosyl)iron(II) tetraarylporphyrinates, [Fe(TpXPP)(NO)(1-MeIm)], where X = F (in a triclinic and a monoclinic form) and OCH(3) are reported. All three molecules, at 100 K, have a single orientation of NO. These structures are the first examples of ordered NO's in [Fe(Porph)(NO)(1-MeIm)] complexes. The three new derivatives have similar structural features including a previously unnoted "bowing" of the N(NO)-Fe-N(Im) angle caused by a concerted tilting of the axial Fe-N(NO) and Fe-N(Im) bonds. Structural features such as the displacement of Fe out of the mean porphyrin plane toward NO, tilting of the Fe-N(NO) bond off the heme normal, and the asymmetry of the Fe-N(por) bonds further strengthen and confirm observations from earlier studies. The [Fe(TpXPP)(NO)(1-MeIm)] complexes were also studied at temperatures between 125 and 350 K to investigate temperature-dependent variations and trends in the coordination group geometry. At varying temperatures (above 150 K), all three derivatives display a second orientation of the NO ligand. The population and depopulation of this second orientation are thermally driven, with no apparent hysteresis. Crystal packing appears to be the significant feature in defining the order/disorder of the NO ligand. The length of the bond trans to NO, Fe-N(Im), was also found to be sensitive to temperature variation. The Fe-N(Im) bond length increases with increased temperature, whereas no other bonds change appreciably. The temperature-dependent Fe-N(Im) bond length change and cell volume changes are consistent with a "soft" Fe-N(Im) bond. Variable-temperature measurements show that the N-O stretching frequency changes with the Fe-N(Im) bond length. Temperature-dependent changes in the Fe-NIm bond length and N-O stretching frequency were also found to be completely reversible with no apparent hysteresis.

Abstract
Heme-Cu/O2 adducts are of interest in the elucidation of the fundamental metal-O2 chemistry occurring in heme-Cu enzymes which effect reductive O-O cleavage of dioxygen to water. In this report, the chemistry of four heme-peroxo-copper [FeIII-(O22-)-CuII]+ complexes (1-4), varying in their ligand architecture, copper-ligand denticity, or both and thus their structures and physical properties are compared in their reactivity toward CO, PPh3, acids, cobaltocene, and phenols. In 1 and 2, the copper(II) ligand is N4-tetradentate, and the peroxo unit is bound side-on to iron(III) and end-on to the copper(II). In contrast, 3 and 4 contain a N3-tridentate copper(II) ligand, and the peroxo unit is bound side-on to both metal ions. CO "displaces" the peroxo ligand from 2-4 to form reduced CO-FeII and CO-CuI species. PPh3 reacts with 3 and 4 displacing the peroxide ligand from copper, forming (porphyrinate)FeIII-superoxide plus CuI-PPh3 species. Complex 2 does not react with PPh3, and surprisingly, 1 reacts neither with PPh3 nor CO, exhibiting remarkable stability toward these reagents. The behavior of 1 and 2 compared to that of 3 and 4 correlates with the different denticity of the copper ligand (tetra vs tridentate). Complexes 1-4 react with HCl releasing H2O2, demonstrating the basic character of the peroxide ligand. Cobaltocene causes the two-electron reduction of 1-4 giving the corresponding micro-oxo [FeIII-(O2-)-CuII]+ complexes, in contrast to the findings for other heme-peroxo-copper species of different design. With t-butyl-substituted phenols, no reaction occurs with 1-4. The results described here emphasize how ligand design and variations influence and control not only the structure and physical properties but also the reactivity patterns for heme-Cu/O2 adducts. Implications for future investigations of protonated heme/Cu-peroxo complexes, low-spin analogues, and ultimately O-O cleavage chemistry are discussed.

Abstract
The preparation and characterization of several new cyano-ligated six-coordinate low-spin iron(III) porphyrinates are reported. The synthesis and structure of the new bis(cyanide) derivative K(222)][Fe(TMP)(CN)2] (TMP = tetramesitylporphyrinate) is described. Three mixed-ligand species of the general form [Fe(Porph)(CN)(L)], where L = 1-methylimidazole or pyridine, have also been prepared and structurally characterized. All complexes have been studied with EPR spectroscopy in frozen solution and in microcrystalline form. In some cases, especially those of the bis(cyanide) derivative above and the previously reported [Fe(TPP)(CN)2](-), there are significant differences in the EPR spectra as a result of the state change. These spectral differences can be correlated with changes in the electron configuration that are the likely result of a differing environment of the coordinated cyanide ligands; the core conformation and electronic structure of the porphyrin ligand are unlikely to play a role. All four new complexes and [Fe(TPP)(CN)2](-) have been studied by Mössbauer spectroscopy with variable-temperature and applied magnetic-field measurements. The sign of the quadrupole splitting value has been established as negative. These measurements have allowed us to give estimates of the energy difference between the two close-lying dpi (dxz and dyz) orbitals. These splitting values range from approximately 267 cm-1 for [Fe(TPP)(CN)2](-) to approximately 614 cm(-1) for [Fe(TPP)(CN)(Py)].

Abstract
We use nuclear resonance vibrational spectroscopy and computational predictions based on density functional theory (DFT) to explore the vibrational dynamics of (57)Fe in porphyrins that mimic the active sites of histidine-ligated heme proteins complexed with carbon monoxide. Nuclear resonance vibrational spectroscopy yields the complete vibrational spectrum of a Mössbauer isotope, and provides a valuable probe that is not only selective for protein active sites but quantifies the mean-squared amplitude and direction of the motion of the probe nucleus, in addition to vibrational frequencies. Quantitative comparison of the experimental results with DFT calculations provides a detailed, rigorous test of the vibrational predictions, which in turn provide a reliable description of the observed vibrational features. In addition to the well-studied stretching vibration of the Fe-CO bond, vibrations involving the Fe-imidazole bond, and the Fe-N(pyr) bonds to the pyrrole nitrogens of the porphyrin contribute prominently to the observed experimental signal. All of these frequencies show structural sensitivity to the corresponding bond lengths, but previous studies have failed to identify the latter vibrations, presumably because the coupling to the electronic excitation is too small in resonance Raman measurements. We also observe the FeCO bending vibrations, which are not Raman active for these unhindered model compounds. The observed Fe amplitude is strongly inconsistent with three-body oscillator descriptions of the FeCO fragment, but agrees quantitatively with DFT predictions. Over the past decade, quantum chemical calculations have suggested revised estimates of the importance of steric distortion of the bound CO in preventing poisoning of heme proteins by carbon monoxide. Quantitative agreement with the predicted frequency, amplitude, and direction of Fe motion for the FeCO bending vibrations provides direct experimental support for the quantum chemical description of the energetics of the FeCO unit.

Abstract
The ions formally corresponding to protonated heme [Fe(II)-hemeH](+) have been obtained by collision-induced dissociation from the electrospray ionization of microperoxidase (MP11) and their gas-phase chemistry has been studied by FTICR mass spectrometry. H/D-exchange reactions, used as a tool to gain information on the protonation sites in polyfunctional molecules, show that labile hydrogens pertain to the propionyl substituents at the periphery of the protoporphyrin IX. Several conceivable isomers for protonated heme have been evaluated by density functional theory. The most stable among the species investigated is the one corresponding to protonation at the beta carbon atom of a vinyl group, yielding a proton affinity (PA) value for [Fe(II)-heme] of 1220 kJ mol(-1). This high PA is consistent with the inertness of the hydrogen atoms at the protonation site towards H/D exchange with ND(3) and CD(3)CO(2)D. Peculiar features of this [Fe(II)-hemeH](+) isomer emerge by analysis of its electronic structure, showing that the vinyl group undergoing formal protonation has gained significant radical character due to electron transfer from the metal center. As a consequence, the iron atom acquires partial iron(III) character and none of the two formal descriptions [Fe(II)-hemeH(+)] and [Fe(III)-hemeH(.)](+) alone may adequately illustrate the protonated heme ion. In agreement with this description, the reactivity of protonated heme presents dual facets, resembling iron(III) in some aspects and iron(II) in others. On the one hand, protonated heme behaves like [Fe(III)-heme](+) ions in H/D-exchange reactions. On the other, it shows markedly decreased reactivity towards the addition of ligands with the notable exception of NO, in line with the high affinity shown by iron(II) complexes towards this molecule, NO, of key biological role.

Abstract
Heme proteins bind the gaseous ligands XO (X = C, N, O) via backbonding from Fe d(pi) electrons. Backbonding is modulated by distal interactions of the bound ligand with the surrounding protein and by variations in the strength of the trans proximal ligand. Vibrational modes associated with FeX and XO bond stretching coordinates report on these interactions, but the interpretive framework developed for CO adducts, involving anticorrelations of nuFeC and nuCO, has seemed not to apply to NO adducts. We have now obtained an excellent anticorrelation of nuFeN and nuNO, via resonance Raman spectroscopy on (N-methylimidazole)Fe(II)TPP-Y(NO), where TPP-Y is tetraphenylporphine with electron-donating or -withdrawing substituents, Y, that modulate the backbonding; the problem of laser-induced dissociation of the axial base was circumvented by using frozen solutions. New data are also reported for CO adducts. The anticorrelations are supported by DFT calculations of structures and spectra. When protein data are examined, the NO adducts show large deviations from the modeled anticorrelation when there are distal H-bonds or positive charges. These deviations are proposed to result from closing of the FeNO angle due to a shift in the valence isomer equilibrium toward the Fe(III)(NO-) form, an effect that is absent in CO adducts. The differing vibrational patterns of CO and NO adducts provide complementary information with respect to protein interactions, which may help to elucidate the mechanisms of ligand discrimination and signaling in heme sensor proteins.

Abstract
The synthesis and molecular structures of three iron(II) porphyrinates with only CO as the axial ligand(s) are reported. Two five-coordinate [Fe(OEP)(CO)] derivatives have Fe-C = 1.7077(13) and 1.7140(10) A, much shorter than those of six-coordinate [Fe(OEP)(Im)(CO)], although nu(C-O) is 1944-1948 cm(-1). The six-coordinate species [Fe(OEP)(CO)2] has also been studied. The competition for pi-back-bonding of two CO ligands leads to Fe-C distance of 1.8558(10) A and nu(C-O) being increased to 2021 cm(-1). The Mössbauer spectrum has a quadrupole splitting constant of 0 mm/s at 4.2 K, indicating high electronic symmetry.

Abstract
Binding of two ligands trans to each other by some transition metal complexes may be cooperative [Khoroshun et al., Mol Phys 2002, 100, 523]. Several interesting consequent effects include (i) inverse relationship between bond strength and binding affinity; (ii) smaller coordination barriers to formation of weaker bonds; (iii) enhancement of Lewis acidity with increased number of ligands. We describe a simple model, sigma trans promotion effect (TPE), which considers electronic reorganization between two Lewis structures, and predicts the above-mentioned effects. The applied result of present study is the unified perspective on several facts of heme chemistry. Particularly, we reiterate an important but often overlooked notion, developed previously within the spin pairing model [Drago and Corden, Acc Chem Res 1980, 13, 353], that, in hemoproteins, the proximal histidine and the distal ligand such as O2 or CO cooperate in promoting electronic reorganization. As a result, depopulation of dz2 orbital upon ligand binding contributes to the phenomenon of hemoglobin cooperativity. The presented density functional (B3LYP) calculations on realistic models, the processes of carbon monoxide binding by Fe(II) porphyrins and dinitrogen binding by triamido/triamidoamine Mo(III) complexes, particularly the evaluation of the coordination barriers due to spin-state change by location of the minima on seams of crossing, support the TPE model predictions. From a broader theoretical perspective, the present study would hopefully stimulate the development of much needed frameworks and tools for facile comparisons of wave functions and their properties between different geometries, species, and electronic states. Advancement of practical wave function comparisons may yield fresh qualitative perspectives on chemical reactivity, and promote better understanding of related concepts such as electronic reorganization.

Abstract
High-resolution X-ray measurements near a nuclear resonance reveal the complete vibrational spectrum of the probe nucleus. Because of this, nuclear resonance vibrational spectroscopy (NRVS) is a uniquely quantitative probe of the vibrational dynamics of reactive iron sites in proteins and other complex molecules. Our measurements of vibrational fundamentals have revealed both frequencies and amplitudes of (57)Fe vibrations in proteins and model compounds. Information on the direction of Fe motion has also been obtained from measurements on oriented single crystals, and provides an essential test of normal mode predictions. Here, we report the observation of weaker two-quantum vibrational excitations (overtones and combinations) for compounds that mimic the active site of heme proteins. The predicted intensities depend strongly on the direction of Fe motion. We compare the observed features with predictions based on the observed fundamentals, using information on the direction of Fe motion obtained either from DFT predictions or from single crystal measurements. Two-quantum excitations may become a useful tool to identify the directions of the Fe oscillations when single crystals are not available.
