No, those are actually double bonds (hence the name "vinyl"),
unless it it is a c-type heme, in which case you should be using HEC.cif
$CCP4/lib/data/monomers/h/HEM.cif:
HEM CBC CAC double 1.329 0.020
HEM CBB CAB double 1.330 0.020
$CCP4/lib/data/monomers/h/HEC.cif
HEC CBC CAC single 1.510 0.020
HEC CBB CAB single 1.510 0.020
This is because cysteine Sg's covalently link the vinyl groups,
adding across the double bond as it were.
Unless you have trypanosome or Euglena cytochrome,
in which case one vinyl is native and the other
is substituted by cysteine.
