Abstract
⺠DFT calculations explore the cis influence of corrins on Co-CH3 bond homolysis. ⺠There is normal trans influence between Co-CH3 and Co-NH3 bond lengths. ⺠Increasing electron donation from the corrin causes the Co-CH3 BDE to decrease. ⺠Differences in BDE arises from differential stabilization between 6C-Co(III) and 5(C)-Co(II).
