Abstract
Dioxygen binding to the active dinuclear iron site of methane monooxygenase (MMO) is theoretically analyzed with a density functional method. The μ-η1:η1-O2 mode was calculated to be the most favorable binding mode of dioxygen to a supposed active site of MMO that contains two five-coordinate irons(II).
