r is in units of Å; σ2 is in units of 10−3 Å2; ΔE0 is in units of eV. All fits are to unfiltered data. F represents a goodness-of-fit parameter. Fourier transform ranges: k = 2.0 – 12.0 Å−1 (resolution = 0.157 Å) for Sw H-NOX Fe(II)–unligated; k = 2.0 – 13.0 Å−1 (resolution = 0.142 Å) for Pa H-NOX Fe(II)–unligated; k = 2.0 – 13.85 Å−1 (resolution = 0.134 Å) for Sw H-NOX Fe(II)–NO; k = 2.0 – 12.5 Å−1 (resolution = 0.150 Å) for Pa H-NOX Fe(II)–NO. Values of r for the Fe••Cα single scattering and Fe••Cα/Np multiple scattering paths were constrained to a constant difference from one another, while σ2 for the multiple scattering path was constrained to be twice that of the single scattering path. A similar constraint was placed on the Cβ and Cβ/Np combination. Inclusion of the Fe••Cα/Np multiple scattering paths was not required for fits of Fe(II)–unligated data.
