Abstract
AbstractQuadratic configuration interaction procedure with single and double electronic excitations (QCISD) has been used, for the first time, to calculate the electronic structure of the Compound I (CpdI), which represents a key intermediate in the catalytic cycle of Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) enzyme. The QCISD method is applied to lowest quasi‐isoenergetic doublet and quartet spin multiplicity and results compared with density functional theory (DFT/B3LYP) data. This investigation shows that, at present, QCISD is more accurate than DFT‐based approach in discriminating between the two lowest magnetic states of CpdI complex in HRP enzyme. Such a result opens the possibility of theoretically addressing the reaction mechanism leading to CpdI complex in HRP using a correlated wavefunction based approach. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
