摘要

The possiblity of activating N_2 at the molybdenum centre of the FeMo-cofactor of nitrogenase is investigated using EHMO calculations on functional and structural models of the enzyme active site. We consider a diverse range of structurally defined complexes and elicit the EHMO characteristics of these sites. We then compare these with EHMO calculations on model clusters and FeMo-co with N_2 bound at Mo. Our focus is on both the binding of dinitrogen and its activation towards protonation. The latter requires a substantial occupation of the #pi#~* molecular orbitals of N_2 which is experimentally achieved in some mononuclear M-N_2 complexes. Binding and activation are also theoretically possible at the Mo centre of MoFe_3S_4 clusters provided they have the right oxidation state and geometry. However, structural deformations of the FeMo cofactor cluster core do not appear to provide a favourable situation for N_2-activation at Mo.
