AbstractThe origin of the displacement of the Fe atom in deoxymyoglobin with respect to the porphyrin plane in the high-spin state is examined by a qualitative molecular orbital (MO) analysis on the extended Hückel level. We find that attachment of a fifth ligand (imidazole in our model complex) to Fe(II)porphyrin favors the out-of-plane shift due to a strengthening of the bonding interaction between Fe and the nitrogen of the imidazole ligand. This results in a high-spin (5 = 2) ground state with Fe shifted out-of-plane for the five-coordinate complex instead of an intermediate spin ground state (5 = 1) with Fe lying in the plane for four-coordinate Fe(II)porphyrin. The relative energies of the different spin states as a function of the distance between Fe and the porphyrin plane are evaluated using an ROHF (restricted open shell Hartree-Fock) version of an INDO (intermediate neglect of differential overlap) method. We observe a level crossing between high-spin and intermediate spin states whereas the low-spin (5 = 0) state remains always higher in energy.

Quantum spin chains with exact valence-bond ground states are of great interest in condensed-matter physics. A class of such models was proposed by Affleck et al., each of which is su(2)-invariant and constructed as a sum of projectors onto definite total spin states at neighboring sites. We propose to use the machinery of the q-deformation of su(2) to obtain generalisations of such models, and work out explicitly the two simplest examples. In one case we recover the known anisotropic spin-1 VBS model while in the other we obtain a new anisotropic generalisation of the spin-½ Majumdar-Ghosh model.

The spin states of the haem components of mixed-valence cytochrome oxidase were studied at room temperature and at temperature down to 20K by using magnetic circular dichroism. The room-temperature studies show the presence of a low-spin ferrous haem together with a low-spin ferric haem, which we attribute to heams a3 and a respectively. At temperatures below 100K it appears that the CO of the mixed-valence CO complex may be irreversibly photolysed, and that in this case haems a and a3 assume their high-spin states. Thus in this enzyme haem-haem interactions appear possible at temperatures below 100K.
