Abstract
Systems containing either iron or copper coordinated to sulphur and molybdenum are well known to be of biological importance, the former in the iron-molybdenum protein and cofactor of nitrogenase and the latter in molybdenum-induced copper deficiency in ruminants. X-ray absorption spectroscopy has been used to study the metal K-edge EXAFS of such systems and to provide new informatioin about their structure.
