Dear Rana,

You can use a quantum mechanics suite to study the transition state of this reaction. I do not how feasible it is in your system but in a basic qm system, you only need the heme, NO and the histidine. You need a good starting structure to have your system to energetically converge closer to the transition state energy, than run a transition state search to observe the bond breaking event. By this simulation, you can also calculate the energy and at which length the bond breaks. I have used turbomole back then for these calculations, however the system setup and the simulations take serious computional time.

Best regards

Bogac
