Abstract

Bond valence sums (BVS's) have been calculated for a series of model complexes for important metalloenzymes. Values calculated from crystallographic distances predict the correct oxidation state of the metal center in a wide range of structural types. Many of the selected complexes have previously been studied by X-ray absorption spectroscopy, and first-shell metal-ligand bond distances have been determined by analysis of extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS)
