Ea and ΔE (kcal/mol) are the activation energies and total reaction energies associated with the Fe3+–O2− + L-Trp → Fe4+=O2− + 2,3-alkyl epoxide reaction along the singlet or triplet reaction coordinate. Values in parentheses for xcTDO correspond to those obtained with a larger basis. ΔEspin (product) is the energy of the product, 2,3-alkyl epoxide + ferryl-Hprox, in the two spin states, obtained by using that of the triplet state as a reference
