The / -NO copper protein structures have inspired recent computational studies Ghosh and coworkers [83] found that CuNO ° as well as CuNO species may exhibit quite stable side-on NO bound structures. They also deduced that the CuNO moiety is best considered electronically as a Cu -( NO) moiety, in Hne with the conclusions reached by Tohnan, for his group s synthetic complex (vide supra). As described above, Coppens and coworkers [77] observed that the MNO electron count may be important in // -NO stabilization and computational studies [83, 84] led to similar conclusions, providing even more...
