AbstractComputer modeling of fluids in zeolites can provide a detailed molecular level understanding of the process of adsorption and diffusion under the influence of the 3-D potential field and the confinement offered by the crystal structure. We have shown that there is a strong link between the location, geometry and energetics of sites and the observed thermodynamics and spectroscopy of the adsorbates. Here we report on the modeling of Xe in zeolite Y, which is of interest both because it is commercially important and because it offers two distinct adsorption sites.

Myoglobin has the ability to react with hydrogen peroxide, generating high-valent complexes similar to peroxidases (compounds I and II), and in the presence of excess hydrogen peroxide a third intermediate, compound III, with an oxymyoglobin-type structure is generated from compound II. The compound III is, however, easily one-electron reduced to peroxymyoglobin by synchrotron radiation during crystallographic data collection. We have generated and solved the 1.30 Å (1 Å=0.1 nm) resolution crystal structure of the peroxymyoglobin intermediate, which is isoelectric to compound 0 and has a Fe–O distance of 1.8 Å and O–O bond of 1.3 Å in accordance with a FeII–O–O− (or FeIII–O–O2−) structure. The generation of the peroxy intermediate through reduction of compound III by X-rays shows the importance of using single-crystal microspectrophotometry when doing crystallography on metalloproteins. After having collected crystallographic data on a peroxy-generated myoglobin crystal, we were able (by a short annealing) to break the O–O bond leading to formation of compound II. These results indicate that the cryoradiolytic-generated peroxymyoglobin is biologically relevant through its conversion into compound II upon heating. Additionally, we have observed that the Xe1 site is occupied by a water molecule, which might be the leaving group in the compound II to compound III reaction.
