Table 1.

B3LYP free energies (including dielectric effects) in kcal/mol for the splitting of the spin states in the reactant [Fe2(μ-O)2(TPA)2(ClO4)]2+(complex 1) and [Fe2(μ-O)(O)(H2O)(TPA)2(ClO4)]2+ (complex 2) as well as for the intermediate resulting after hydrogen abstraction. (a) The energy of the intermediates is set in relation to the reactant ground state.
