Electronic and steric influence of trans axial base on the stereoelectric properties of cobalamins
Article Abstract:
Density functional theory (DFT) is applied to investigate the relationship between steric and electronic properties of the trans axial base and energetics of Co-C bond cleavage in models of coenzyme B(sub 12). It was demonstrated by using structurally reliable six-coordinate models, B-[Co(super III)(corrin)]-R(super +), that for a given base (B) the energy of homolytic cobalt-carbon bond cleavage correctly follows the Co-C(sub 8) bond lengthening.

Density functional theory analysis of stereoelectronic properties of cobalamins
Article Abstract:
Density functional theory (DFT) is applied to the calculation of the steric and electronic factors, which might affect the Co-C (sub R) bond activation in coenzyme B (sub 12). The aim of the study is to investigate the stereoelectronic factors, which might affect the Co-C (sub R) bond length in B (sub 12) dependent enzymes using density functional theory.

DFT study of structure and vibrations in low-lying spin states of five-coordinated deoxyheme model
Article Abstract:
The results of the DFT (B3LYP) calculations of the structures and force fields of the five spin states of a model deoxyheme (C(sub s) symmetry) are presented. A detailed analysis of low-frequency vibrations and their isotope shifts is given and compared with the experimental resonance Raman spectra.
