Parallel spectroscopic and computational studies of iron(III) cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) and synthetic models are presented. The synthetic complexes utilize the ligand tris(4,5-diphenyl-1-methylimidazol-2-yl)phosphine ( Ph2 TIP), which mimics the facial three-histidine triad of CDO and other thiol dioxygenases. In addition to the previously reported [Fe II (CysOEt)( Ph2 TIP)]BPh 4 ( 1 ; CysOEt is the ethyl ester of anionic l-cysteine), the formation and crystallographic characterization of [Fe II (2-MTS)( Ph2 TIP)]BPh 4 ( 2 ) is reported, where the methyl 2-thiosalicylate anion (2-MTS) resembles the substrate of 3-mercaptopropionate dioxygenase (MDO). One-electron chemical oxidation of 1 and 2 yields ferric species that bind cyanide and azide anions, which have been used as spectroscopic probes of O 2 binding in prior studies of Fe III -CDO. The six-coordinate Fe III -CN and Fe III -N 3 adducts are examined with UV-vis absorption, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and resonance Raman (rRaman) spectroscopies. In addition, UV-vis and rRaman studies of cysteine- and cyanide-bound Fe III -CDO are reported for both the wild-type (WT) enzyme and C93G variant, which lacks the Cys-Tyr cross-link that is present in the second coordination sphere of the WT active site. Density functional theory (DFT) and ab initio calculations are employed to provide geometric and electronic structure descriptions of the synthetic and enzymatic Fe III adducts. In particular, it is shown that the complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) method, in tandem with n -electron valence state second-order perturbation theory (NEVPT2), is capable of elucidating the structural basis of subtle shifts in EPR g values for low-spin Fe III species.
