We investigate O2 binding to cytochrome c oxidase (CcO)-inspired nanomaterials using ab initio density functional calculations. We consider iron-porphyrin (FeP) and copper-(imidazole)3 [Cu(Im)3] as a representative of the active binuclear center, and explore the effect of the Cu(Im)3 on the FeP–O2 a...
