Physiochemical properties of compound I and II intermediate states for heme enzymes (catalase, peroxidase, P450) and inorganic models are investigated by hybrid density functional theory. Used theoretical models are composed of an oxoferryl porphyrin and an axial ligand, which are cresol, methylimidazole, methylthiol, and chloride for catalase, peroxidase, P450, and inorganic models, respectively. The oxoferryl bonds are characterized in terms of bond lengths and vibration frequencies. It is found that the oxoferryl bond lengths (the stretching frequency) are shorter (higher) than those of the X‐ray crystal structures of enzymes, on the other hand for inorganic models, they are comparable with the experimental values. Spin density distributions showed that radical state at the compound I can be classified into two types: (1) porphyrin radical state and (2) axial ligand radical state. Peroxidase and inorganic model are in the former case and Catalase and P450 are in the later case at the present calculation models. Magnetic interactions between oxoferryl and ligand radical moieties are analyzed by the natural orbital analysis and it is showed that the effective exchange integral ( J ) values are strongly related to the radical spin density distributions: axial ligand radical tends to increase the antiferromagnetic interaction. Mössbauer shift parameters are also evaluated and it is shown that iron charge states are similar for these models. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2008
