    revealed existence of a nitrogen isotope sensitive band from a peak/trough at 1334/1309 cm-1 demonstrating that there is nitration of the vinyl group to some extent at pH 7.5 without nitrite coordination to the heme. This result was consistent in both the high and low frequency resonance spectra. At pH 5.5, the difference in traces of the high frequency RR spectra demonstrated formation of a 6cLS heme species and presence of two peak/trough features suggesting the nitrogen and oxygen isotope…
