In structural comparisons, active site models were superimposed by overlapping the constrained methyl carbons using algorithms implemented in a custom Python script, which employed the following freely available supplementary modules: Numerical Python (Dubois, P. F. available on the World Wide Web at http://sourceforge.net/projects/numpy as of January 2005) and Scientific Python (Hinson K. module library available on the World Wide Web at http://starship. python. net/~hinsen/ScientificPython/as of January 2005). This script and/or the Cartesian coordinates for the initial and optimized structures of active site models 1-14 can be obtained from the authors on request.

65. --OxH complex 4 in that the ethylimidazole ligands corresponding to His-95 and His-140 merely dissociated from the metal center. Given these radically different results, we attribute the apparent oxalate oxidation in the RI-BLYP/SVP calculation to spurious "electron transfer" from dianionic oxalate to the metal complex. Such observations are clearly the result of an inadequate description of these strongly charged species in vacuo, an interpretation supported by occupation of positive-energy molecular orbitals even in the calculations including diffuse functions. The latter is a hallmark of either a lack of sufficiently diffuse basis functions which would allow proper description of a (marginally) stable anion in vacuo or a lack of continuum basis functions which would permit a description of the ionization that would actually occur physically in vacuo.

96. Such a model is by definition oversimplified given the covalency of bonding and consequent breakdown of the ligand field approximation. It is nevertheless useful to frame the discussion of the formal valence of the manganese ion within that given in the literature.
97. The discrepancy between formal and partial charge in firstrow transition ions often arises as a result of charge transfer from the ligand into the metal 4s orbital associated with coordinate-covalent bonding.
98. The geometry optimization of complexes for which oxalate C-C bond cleavage occurs is partial, given the difficulty of locating a well-defined minimum energy structure due to flattening of the potential surface. In any event, oxalate C-C bond clearly breaks, and the linear O-C-O angles strongly suggest that the observed "cleavage" is oxidative. While recognizing that it is technically fallacious to discuss changes during a geometry optimization in terms of a chemical reaction, these changes nevertheless imply that a stable, minimum-energy structure in which the oxalate C-C bond is intact was not be found with this model chemistry, starting geometry, and gradient and Hessian update algorithms. We have therefore framed our discussion of the behavior of model complex 13 relative to that of other minimized structures obtained in these studies.

101. This performance enhancement has been suggested to arise from a fortuitous cancellation of errors between truncated bases and the erroneous long-range behavior of the exchangecorrelation potential (see ref 12).
