Effect of Oxidation and Protonation States on [2Fe–2S] Cluster Nitrosylation Giving {Fe(NO)₂}⁹ Dinitrosyl Iron Complexes (DNICs) by Christine E. Schiewer (6112373)

“…Density functional theory calculations based on the structure of <b>3</b>^<b>–</b> indicate that the electronic ground-state properties of <b>3</b>^<b>–</b> and <b>3H</b> are similar, although the NO­(π*) → Fe 3d π-donation is slightly increased and π-backbonding is slightly decreased upon protonation. As a result, protonation has a significant effect on the NO stretching frequencies, but only minor effects on the Fe–(NO)₂ modes. …”
