ABSTRACT

This manuscript focuses on the quantum chemistry of five-coordinated iron porphyrin compounds [Fe (TⁱP_rP) X] (X=F,Cl,I). Iron porphyrins are the core structures of heme enzymes, such as cytochrome P450 monooxygenase, peroxidase or catalase, whose active centers are iron porphyrin structures. The synthetic metalloporphyrin model has been widely applied to the study of mechanisms and intermediates of heme enzyme-related biological reactions, and metalloporphyrin catalysis provides new synthetic methods for important chemicals. In this paper, the geometric configuration of selected molecules was optimized using Gaussian 09 software. The geometric configuration optimization process was calculated using the heterogeneous density generalized theory B3LYP. To better investigate the electronic structure and orbital distribution of [Fe(TⁱP_rP) X] (X=F,Cl,I), based on the molecular structure of the previous step, the Sddall basis group and Sddall pseudopotential were used for the Fe atoms and the all-electron 6-311G++(d,p) basis group was used for the rest of the atoms.
