Abstract
The intrinsic relationship between spin states and reactivity in peroxocobalt(III) complexes was investigated, specifically focusing on the influence of steric modulation on supporting ligands. Together with the previously reported [CoIII(TBDAP)(O2)]+ (2Tb), which exhibits spin crossover characteristics, two peroxocobalt(III) complexes, [CoIII(MDAP)(O2)]+ (2Me) and [CoIII(ADDAP)(O2)]+ (2Ad), bearing pyridinophane ligands with distinct N-substituents such as methyl and adamantyl groups, were synthesized and characterized. By manipulating the steric bulkiness of the N-substituents, control of spin states in peroxocobalt(III) complexes was demonstrated through various physicochemical analyses. Notably, 2Ad oxidized the nitriles to generate hydroximatocobalt(III) complexes, while 2Me displayed an inability for such oxidation reactions. Furthermore, both 2Ad and 2Tb exhibited similarities in spectroscopic and geometric features, demonstrating spin crossover behavior between S = 0 and S = 1. The steric bulkiness of the adamantyl and tert-butyl group on the axial amines was attributed to inducing a weak ligand field on the cobalt(III) center. Thus, 2Ad and 2Tb are an S = 1 state under the reaction conditions. In contrast, the less bulky methyl group on the amines of 2Me resulted in an S = 0 state. The redox potential of the peroxocobalt(III) complexes was also influenced by the ligand field arising from the steric bulkiness of the N-substituents in the order of 2Me (-0.01 V) < 2Tb (0.29 V) = 2Ad (0.29 V). Theoretical calculations using DFT supported the experimental observations, providing insights into the electronic structure and emphasizing the importance of the spin state of peroxocobalt(III) complexes in nitrile activation.

Elucidating the Role of O 2 Uncoupling for the Adaptation of Bacterial Biodegradation Reactions Catalyzed by Rieske Oxygenases. ACS ENVIRONMENTAL AU 2024; 4:204-218.

Abstract
Oxygenation of aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons by Rieske oxygenases is the initial step of various biodegradation pathways for environmental organic contaminants. Microorganisms carrying Rieske oxygenases are able to quickly adapt their substrate spectra to alternative carbon and energy sources that are structurally related to the original target substrate, yet the molecular events responsible for this rapid adaptation are not well understood. Here, we evaluated the hypothesis that reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by unproductive activation of O2, the so-called O2 uncoupling, in the presence of the alternative substrate exert a selective pressure on the bacterium for increasing the oxygenation efficiency of Rieske oxygenases. To that end, we studied wild-type 2-nitrotoluene dioxygenase from Acidovorax sp. strain JS42 and five enzyme variants that have evolved from adaptive laboratory evolution experiments with 3- and 4-nitrotoluene as alternative growth substrates. The enzyme variants showed a substantially increased oxygenation efficiency toward the new target substrates concomitant with a reduction of ROS production, while mechanisms and kinetics of enzymatic O2 activation remained unchanged. Structural analyses and docking studies suggest that amino acid substitutions in enzyme variants occurred at residues lining both substrate and O2 transport tunnels, enabling tighter binding of the target substrates in the active site. Increased oxygenation efficiencies measured in vitro for the various enzyme (variant)-substrate combinations correlated linearly with in vivo changes in growth rates for evolved Acidovorax strains expressing the variants. Our data suggest that the selective pressure from oxidative stress toward more efficient oxygenation by Rieske oxygenases was most notable when O2 uncoupling exceeded 60%.

The Unique Role of the Second Coordination Sphere to Unlock and Control Catalysis in Nonheme Fe(II)/2-Oxoglutarate Histone Demethylase KDM2A. Inorg Chem 2024; 63:10737-10755. [PMID: 38781256 PMCID: PMC11168414 DOI: 10.1021/acs.inorgchem.4c01365] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2024] [Revised: 04/26/2024] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
Nonheme Fe(II) and 2-oxoglutarate (2OG)-dependent histone lysine demethylases 2A (KDM2A) catalyze the demethylation of the mono- or dimethylated lysine 36 residue in the histone H3 peptide (H3K36me1/me2), which plays a crucial role in epigenetic regulation and can be involved in many cancers. Although the overall catalytic mechanism of KDMs has been studied, how KDM2 catalysis takes place in contrast to other KDMs remains unknown. Understanding such differences is vital for enzyme redesign and can help in enzyme-selective drug design. Herein, we employed molecular dynamics (MD) and combined quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) to explore the complete catalytic mechanism of KDM2A, including dioxygen diffusion and binding, dioxygen activation, and substrate oxidation. Our study demonstrates that the catalysis of KDM2A is controlled by the conformational change of the second coordination sphere (SCS), specifically by a change in the orientation of Y222, which unlocks the 2OG rearrangement from off-line to in-line mode. The study demonstrates that the variant Y222A makes the 2OG rearrangement more favorable. Furthermore, the study reveals that it is the size of H3K36me3 that prevents the 2OG rearrangement, thus rendering the enzyme inactivity with trimethylated lysine. Calculations show that the SCS and long-range interacting residues that stabilize the HAT transition state in KDM2A differ from those in KDM4A, KDM7B, and KDM6A, thus providing the basics for the enzyme-selective redesign and modulation of KDM2A without influencing other KDMs.

Abstract
Emulating the capabilities of the soluble methane monooxygenase (sMMO) enzymes, which effortlessly activate oxygen at diiron(II) centers to form a reactive diiron(IV) intermediate Q, which then performs the challenging oxidation of methane to methanol, poses a significant challenge. Very recently, one of us reported the mononuclear complex [(cyclam)FeII(CH3CN)2]2+ (1), which performed a rare bimolecular activation of the molecule of O2 to generate two molecules of FeIV═O without the requirement of external proton or electron sources, similar to sMMO. In the present study, we employed the density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate this unique mechanism of O2 activation. We show that secondary hydrogen-bonding interactions between ligand N-H groups and O2 play a vital role in reducing the energy barrier associated with the initial O2 binding at 1 and O-O bond cleavage to form the FeIV═O complex. Further, the unique reactivity of FeIV═O species toward simultaneous C-H and O-H bond activation process has been demonstrated. Our study unveils that the nature of the magnetic coupling between the diiron centers is also crucial. Given that the influence of magnetic coupling and noncovalent interactions in catalysis remains largely unexplored, this unexplored realm presents numerous avenues for experimental chemists to develop novel structural and functional analogues of sMMO.

Abstract
High-valent iron-oxo species are one of the common intermediates in both biological and biomimetic catalytic oxidation reactions. Recently, hydrogen-bonding (H-bonding) has been proved to be critical in determining the selectivity and reactivity. However, few examples have been established for mechanistic insights into the H-bonding effect. Moreover, intramolecular H-bonding effect on both C-H activation and oxygen atom transfer (OAT) reactions in synthetic porphyrin model system has not been investigated yet. In this study, a series of heme-containing iron(IV)-oxo porphyrin species with or without intramolecular H-bonding are synthesized and characterized. Kinetic studies revealed that intramolecular H-bonding can significantly enhance the reactivity of iron(IV)-oxo species in OAT, C-H activation, and electron-transfer reactions. This unprecedented unified H-bonding effect is elucidated by theoretical calculations, which showed that intramolecular H-bonding interactions lower the energy of the anti-bonding orbital of iron(IV)-oxo porphyrin species, resulting in the enhanced reactivities in oxidation reactions irrespective of the reaction type. To the best of the knowledge, this is the first extensive investigation on the intramolecular H-bonding effect in heme system. The results show that H-bonding interactions have a unified effect with iron(IV)-oxo porphyrin species in all three investigated reactions.

Abstract
In addition to its primary oxygen-atom-transfer function, cysteamine dioxygenase (ADO) exhibits a relatively understudied anaerobic disproportionation reaction (ADO-Fe(III)-SR → ADO-Fe(II) + ½ RSSR) with its native substrates. Inspired by ADO disproportionation reactivity, we employ [Fe(tacn)Cl3] (tacn = 1,4,7-triazacyclononane) as a precursor for generating Fe(III)-thiolate model complexes in buffered aqueous media. A series of Fe(III)-thiolate model complexes are generated in situ using aqueous [Fe(tacn)Cl3] and thiol-containing ligands cysteamine, penicillamine, mercaptopropionate, cysteine, cysteine methyl ester, N-acetylcysteine, and N-acetylcysteine methyl ester. We observe trends in UV-Vis and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra, disproportionation rate constants, and cathodic peak potentials as a function of thiol ligand. These trends will be useful in rationalizing substrate-dependent Fe(III)-thiolate disproportionation reactions in metalloenzymes.

Abstract
3-mercaptopropionate (3MPA) dioxygenase (MDO) is a mononuclear nonheme iron enzyme that catalyzes the O2-dependent oxidation of thiol-bearing substrates to yield the corresponding sulfinic acid. MDO is a member of the cysteine dioxygenase family of small molecule thiol dioxygenases and thus shares a conserved sequence of active site residues (Serine-155, Histidine-157, and Tyrosine-159), collectively referred to as the SHY-motif. It has been demonstrated that these amino acids directly interact with the mononuclear Fe-site, influencing steady-state catalysis, catalytic efficiency, O2-binding, and substrate coordination. However, the underlying mechanism by which this is accomplished is poorly understood. Here, pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy [1H Mims electron nuclear double resonance spectroscopy] is applied to validate density functional theory computational models for the MDO Fe-site simultaneously coordinated by substrate and nitric oxide (NO), (3MPA/NO)-MDO. The enhanced resolution provided by electron nuclear double resonance spectroscopy allows for direct observation of Fe-bound substrate conformations and H-bond donation from Tyr159 to the Fe-bound NO ligand. Further inclusion of SHY-motif residues within the validated model reveals a distinct channel restricting movement of the Fe-bound NO-ligand. It has been argued that the iron-nitrosyl emulates the structure of potential Fe(III)-superoxide intermediates within the MDO catalytic cycle. While the merit of this assumption remains unconfirmed, the model reported here offers a framework to evaluate oxygen binding at the substrate-bound Fe-site and possible reaction mechanisms. It also underscores the significance of hydrogen bonding interactions within the enzymatic active site.

Abstract
The catalytic reduction of dioxygen (O2) is important in biological energy conversion and alternative energy applications. In comparison to Fe- and Co-based systems, examples of catalytic O2 reduction by homogeneous Mn-based systems is relatively sparse. Motivated by this lack of knowledge, two Mn-based catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) containing a bipyridine-based non-porphyrinic ligand framework have been developed to evaluate how pendent proton donor relays alter activity and selectivity for the ORR, where Mn(p-tbudhbpy)Cl (1) was used as a control complex and Mn(nPrdhbpy)Cl (2) contains a pendent -OMe group in the secondary coordination sphere. Using an ammonium-based proton source, N,N'-diisopropylethylammonium hexafluorophosphate, we analyzed catalytic activity for the ORR: 1 was found to be 64% selective for H2O2 and 2 is quantitative for H2O2, with O2 binding to the reduced Mn(ii) center being the rate-determining step. Upon addition of the conjugate base, N,N'-diisopropylethylamine, the observed catalytic selectivity of both 1 and 2 shifted to H2O as the primary product. Interestingly, while the shift in selectivity suggests a change in mechanism for both 1 and 2, the catalytic activity of 2 is substantially enhanced in the presence of base and the rate-determining step becomes the bimetallic cleavage of the O-O bond in a Mn-hydroperoxo species. These data suggest that the introduction of pendent relay moieties can improve selectivity for H2O2 at the expense of diminished reaction rates from strong hydrogen bonding interactions. Further, although catalytic rate enhancements are observed with a change in product selectivity when base is added to buffer proton activity, the pendent relays stabilize dimer intermediates, limiting the maximum rate.

Abstract
We study active-site models of nonheme iron hydroxylases and their vanadium-based mimics using density functional theory to determine if vanadyl is a faithful structural mimic. We identify crucial structural and energetic differences between ferryl and vanadyl isomers owing to the differences in their ground electronic states, i.e., high spin (HS) for Fe and low spin (LS) for V. For the succinate cofactor bound to the ferryl intermediate, we predict facile interconversion between monodentate and bidentate coordination isomers for ferryl species but difficult rearrangement for vanadyl mimics. We study isomerization of the oxo intermediate between axial and equatorial positions and find the ferryl potential energy surface to be characterized by a large barrier of ca. 10 kcal/mol that is completely absent for the vanadyl mimic. This analysis reveals even starker contrasts between Fe and V in hydroxylases than those observed for this metal substitution in nonheme halogenases. Analysis of the relative bond strengths of coordinating carboxylate ligands for Fe and V reveals that all of the ligands show stronger binding to V than Fe owing to the LS ground state of V in contrast to the HS ground state of Fe, highlighting the limitations of vanadyl mimics of native nonheme iron hydroxylases.

Abstract
Biocatalytic C-H oxidation reactions are of important synthetic utility, provide a sustainable route for selective synthesis of important organic molecules, and are an integral part of fundamental cell processes. The multidomain non-heme Fe(ii)/2-oxoglutarate (2OG) dependent oxygenase AspH catalyzes stereoselective (3R)-hydroxylation of aspartyl- and asparaginyl-residues. Unusually, compared to other 2OG hydroxylases, crystallography has shown that AspH lacks the carboxylate residue of the characteristic two-His-one-Asp/Glu Fe-binding triad. Instead, AspH has a water molecule that coordinates Fe(ii) in the coordination position usually occupied by the Asp/Glu carboxylate. Molecular dynamics (MD) and quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) studies reveal that the iron coordinating water is stabilized by hydrogen bonding with a second coordination sphere (SCS) carboxylate residue Asp721, an arrangement that helps maintain the six coordinated Fe(ii) distorted octahedral coordination geometry and enable catalysis. AspH catalysis follows a dioxygen activation-hydrogen atom transfer (HAT)-rebound hydroxylation mechanism, unusually exhibiting higher activation energy for rebound hydroxylation than for HAT, indicating that the rebound step may be rate-limiting. The HAT step, along with substrate positioning modulated by the non-covalent interactions with SCS residues (Arg688, Arg686, Lys666, Asp721, and Gln664), are essential in determining stereoselectivity, which likely proceeds with retention of configuration. The tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) domain of AspH influences substrate binding and manifests dynamic motions during catalysis, an observation of interest with respect to other 2OG oxygenases with TPR domains. The results provide unique insights into how non-heme Fe(ii) oxygenases can effectively catalyze stereoselective hydroxylation using only two enzyme-derived Fe-ligating residues, potentially guiding enzyme engineering for stereoselective biocatalysis, thus advancing the development of non-heme Fe(ii) based biomimetic C-H oxidation catalysts, and supporting the proposal that the 2OG oxygenase superfamily may be larger than once perceived.

Abstract
We report the macrocyclic ring size-electronic structure-electrophilic reactivity correlation of mononuclear nonheme iron(III)-peroxo complexes bearing N-tetramethylated cyclam analogues (n-TMC), [FeIII(O2)(12-TMC)]+ (1), [FeIII(O2)(13-TMC)]+ (2), and [FeIII(O2)(14-TMC)]+ (3), as a model study of Rieske oxygenases. The Fe(III)-peroxo complexes show the same δ and pseudo-σ bonds between iron and the peroxo ligand. However, the strength of these interactions varies depending on the ring size of the n-TMC ligands; the overall Fe-O bond strength and the strength of the Fe-O2 δ bond increase gradually as the ring size of the n-TMC ligands becomes smaller, such as from 14-TMC to 13-TMC to 12-TMC. MCD spectroscopy plays a key role in assigning the characteristic low-energy δ → δ* LMCT band, which provides direct insight into the strength of the Fe-O2 δ bond and which, in turn, is correlated with the superoxo character of the iron-peroxo group. In oxidation reactions, reactivities of 1-3 toward hydrocarbon C-H bond activation are compared, revealing the reactivity order of 1 > 2 > 3; the [FeIII(O2)(n-TMC)]+ complex with a smaller n-TMC ring size, 12-TMC, is much more reactive than that with a larger n-TMC ring size, 14-TMC. DFT analysis shows that the Fe(III)-peroxo complex is not reactive toward C-H bonds, but it is the end-on Fe(II)-superoxo valence tautomer that is responsible for the observed reactivity. The hydrogen atom abstraction (HAA) reactivity of these intermediates is correlated with the overall donicity of the n-TMC ligand, which modulates the energy of the singly occupied π* superoxo frontier orbital that serves as the electron acceptor in the HAA reaction. The implications of these results for the mechanism of Rieske oxygenases are further discussed.

Abstract
The Nucleo-Cytoplasmic Large DNA Viruses (NCLDVs) infect a wide range of eukaryotic species, including amoeba, algae, fish, amphibia, arthropods, birds, and mammals. This group of viruses has linear or circular double-stranded DNA genomes whose size spans approximately one order of magnitude, from 100 to 2500 kbp. The ultimate origin of this peculiar group of viruses remains an open issue. Some have argued that NCLDVs' origin may lie in a bacteriophage ancestor that increased its genome size by subsequent recruitment of eukaryotic and bacterial genes. Others have suggested that NCLDVs families originated from cells that underwent an irreversible process of genome reduction. However, the hypothesis that a number of NCLDVs sequences have been recruited from the host genomes has been largely ignored. In the present work, we have performed pangenomic analyses of each of the seven known NCLDVs families. We show that these families' core- and shell genes have cellular homologs, supporting possible escaping-gene events as part of its evolution. Furthermore, the detection of sequences that belong to two protein families (small chain ribonucleotide reductase and Erv1/Air) and to one superfamily [2OG-Fe(II) oxygenases] that are for distribution in all NCLDVs core and shell clusters encoding for oxygen-dependent enzymes suggests that the highly conserved core these viruses originated after the Proterozoic Great Oxidation Event that transformed the terrestrial atmosphere 2.4-2.3 Ga ago.

Abstract
Iron-based enzymes efficiently activate molecular oxygen to perform the oxidation of methane to methanol (MTM), a reaction central to the contemporary chemical industry. Conversely, a very limited number of artificial catalysts have been devised to mimic this process. Herein, we employ the MIL-100(Fe) metal-organic framework (MOF), a material that exhibits isolated Fe sites, to accomplish the MTM conversion using O2 as the oxidant under mild conditions. We apply a diverse set of advanced operando X-ray techniques to unveil how MIL-100(Fe) can act as a catalyst for direct MTM conversion. Single-phase crystallinity and stability of the MOF under reaction conditions (200 or 100 °C, CH4 + O2) are confirmed by X-ray diffraction measurements. X-ray absorption, emission, and resonant inelastic scattering measurements show that thermal treatment above 200 °C generates Fe(II) sites that interact with O2 and CH4 to produce methanol. Experimental evidence-driven density functional theory (DFT) calculations illustrate that the MTM reaction involves the oxidation of the Fe(II) sites to Fe(III) via a high-spin Fe(IV)═O intermediate. Catalyst deactivation is proposed to be caused by the escape of CH3• radicals from the relatively large MOF pore cages, ultimately resulting in the formation of hydroxylated triiron units, as proven by valence-to-core X-ray emission spectroscopy. The O2-based MTM catalytic activity of MIL-100(Fe) in the investigated conditions is demonstrated for two consecutive reaction cycles, proving the MOF potential toward active site regeneration. These findings will desirably lay the groundwork for the design of improved MOF catalysts for the MTM conversion.

Abstract
An aliphatic halogenase requires four substrates: 2-oxoglutarate (2OG), halide (Cl- or Br-), the halogenation target ("prime substrate"), and dioxygen. In well-studied cases, the three nongaseous substrates must bind to activate the enzyme's Fe(II) cofactor for efficient capture of O2. Halide, 2OG, and (lastly) O2 all coordinate directly to the cofactor to initiate its conversion to a cis-halo-oxo-iron(IV) (haloferryl) complex, which abstracts hydrogen (H•) from the non-coordinating prime substrate to enable radicaloid carbon-halogen coupling. We dissected the kinetic pathway and thermodynamic linkage in binding of the first three substrates of the l-lysine 4-chlorinase, BesD. After addition of 2OG, subsequent coordination of the halide to the cofactor and binding of cationic l-Lys near the cofactor are associated with strong heterotropic cooperativity. Progression to the haloferryl intermediate upon the addition of O2 does not trap the substrates in the active site and, in fact, markedly diminishes cooperativity between halide and l-Lys. The surprising lability of the BesD•[Fe(IV)=O]•Cl•succinate•l-Lys complex engenders pathways for decay of the haloferryl intermediate that do not result in l-Lys chlorination, especially at low chloride concentrations; one identified pathway involves oxidation of glycerol. The mechanistic data imply (i) that BesD may have evolved from a hydroxylase ancestor either relatively recently or under weak selective pressure for efficient chlorination and (ii) that acquisition of its activity may have involved the emergence of linkage between l-Lys binding and chloride coordination following the loss of the anionic protein-carboxylate iron ligand present in extant hydroxylases.

Abstract
Non-heme iron halogenases (NHFe-Hals) catalyze the direct insertion of a chloride/bromide ion at an unactivated carbon position using a high-valent haloferryl intermediate. Despite more than a decade of structural and mechanistic characterization, how NHFe-Hals preferentially bind specific anions and substrates for C-H functionalization remains unknown. Herein, using lysine halogenating BesD and HalB enzymes as model systems, we demonstrate strong positive cooperativity between anion and substrate binding to the catalytic pocket. Detailed computational investigations indicate that a negatively charged glutamate hydrogen-bonded to iron's equatorial-aqua ligand acts as an electrostatic lock preventing both lysine and anion binding in the absence of the other. Using a combination of UV-Vis spectroscopy, binding affinity studies, stopped-flow kinetics investigations, and biochemical assays, we explore the implication of such active site assembly towards chlorination, bromination, and azidation reactivities. Overall, our work highlights previously unknown features regarding how anion-substrate pair binding govern reactivity of iron halogenases that are crucial for engineering next-generation C-H functionalization biocatalysts.

Abstract
Nonheme iron(III)-superoxo intermediates are generated in the activation of dioxygen (O2) by nonheme iron(II) complexes and then converted to iron(IV)-oxo species by reacting with hydrogen donor substrates with relatively weak C-H bonds. If singlet oxygen (1O2) with ca. 1 eV higher energy than the ground state triplet oxygen (3O2) is employed, iron(IV)-oxo complexes can be synthesized using hydrogen donor substrates with much stronger C-H bonds. However, 1O2 has never been used in generating iron(IV)-oxo complexes. Herein, we report that a nonheme iron(IV)-oxo species, [FeIV(O)(TMC)]2+ (TMC = tetramethylcyclam), is generated using 1O2, which is produced with boron subphthalocyanine chloride (SubPc) as a photosensitizer, and hydrogen donor substrates with relatively strong C-H bonds, such as toluene (BDE = 89.5 kcal mol-1), via electron transfer from [FeII(TMC)]2+ to 1O2, which is energetically more favorable by 0.98 eV, as compared with electron transfer from [FeII(TMC)]2+ to 3O2. Electron transfer from [FeII(TMC)]2+ to 1O2 produces an iron(III)-superoxo complex, [FeIII(O2)(TMC)]2+, followed by abstracting a hydrogen atom from toluene by [FeIII(O2)(TMC)]2+ to form an iron(III)-hydroperoxo complex, [FeIII(OOH)(TMC)]2+, that is further converted to the [FeIV(O)(TMC)]2+ species. Thus, the present study reports the first example of generating a mononuclear nonheme iron(IV)-oxo complex with the use of singlet oxygen, instead of triplet oxygen, and a hydrogen atom donor with relatively strong C-H bonds. Detailed mechanistic aspects, such as the detection of 1O2 emission, the quenching by [FeII(TMC)]2+, and the quantum yields, have also been discussed to provide valuable mechanistic insights into understanding nonheme iron-oxo chemistry.

Abstract
Manganese cofactors activate strong chemical bonds in many essential enzymes. Yet very few manganese-dependent enzymes are known to functionalize ubiquitous carbon-hydrogen (C-H) bonds, and those that catalyze this important reaction display limited intrinsic reactivity. Herein, we report that the 2-aminoisobutyric acid hydroxylase from Rhodococcus wratislaviensis requires manganese to functionalize a C-H bond possessing a bond dissociation enthalpy (BDE) exceeding 100 kcal/mol. Structural and spectroscopic studies of this enzyme reveal a redox-active, heterobimetallic manganese-iron active site that utilizes a manganese ion at the locus for O 2 activation and substrate coordination. Accordingly, this enzyme represents the first documented Mn-dependent monooxygenase in biology. Related proteins are widespread in microorganisms suggesting that many uncharacterized monooxygenases may utilize manganese-containing cofactors to accomplish diverse biological tasks.

Abstract
Enzymes with iron-containing active sites play crucial roles in catalysing a myriad of oxidative reactions essential to aerobic life. Defining the three-dimensional structures of iron enzymes in resting, oxy-bound intermediate and substrate-bound states is particularly challenging, not least because of the extreme susceptibility of the Fe(III) and Fe(IV) redox states to radiation-induced chemistry caused by intense X-ray or electron beams. The availability of novel sources such as X-ray free electron lasers has enabled structures that are effectively free of the effects of radiation-induced chemistry and allows time-resolved structures to be determined. Important to both applications is the ability to obtain in crystallo spectroscopic data to identify the redox state of the iron in any particular structure or timepoint.

Abstract
![]()
Oxygenations of aromatic
soil and water contaminants with molecular
O2 catalyzed by Rieske dioxygenases are frequent initial
steps of biodegradation in natural and engineered environments. Many
of these non-heme ferrous iron enzymes are known to be involved in
contaminant metabolism, but the understanding of enzyme–substrate
interactions that lead to successful biodegradation is still elusive.
Here, we studied the mechanisms of O2 activation and substrate
hydroxylation of two nitroarene dioxygenases to evaluate enzyme- and
substrate-specific factors that determine the efficiency of oxygenated
product formation. Experiments in enzyme assays of 2-nitrotoluene
dioxygenase (2NTDO) and nitrobenzene dioxygenase (NBDO) with methyl-,
fluoro-, chloro-, and hydroxy-substituted nitroaromatic substrates
reveal that typically 20–100% of the enzyme’s activity
involves unproductive paths of O2 activation with generation
of reactive oxygen species through so-called O2 uncoupling.
The 18O and 13C kinetic isotope effects of O2 activation and nitroaromatic substrate hydroxylation, respectively,
suggest that O2 uncoupling occurs after generation of FeIII-(hydro)peroxo species in the catalytic cycle. While 2NTDO
hydroxylates ortho-substituted nitroaromatic substrates
more efficiently, NBDO favors meta-substituted, presumably
due to distinct active site residues of the two enzymes. Our data
implies, however, that the O2 uncoupling and hydroxylation
activity cannot be assessed from simple structure–reactivity
relationships. By quantifying O2 uncoupling by Rieske dioxygenases,
our work provides a mechanistic link between contaminant biodegradation,
the generation of reactive oxygen species, and possible adaptation
strategies of microorganisms to the exposure of new contaminants.

Abstract
Caprazamycin is a nucleoside antibiotic that inhibits phospho-N-acetylmuramyl-pentapeptide translocase (MraY). The biosynthesis of nucleoside antibiotics has been studied but is still far from completion. The present study characterized enzymes Cpz10, Cpz15, Cpz27, Mur17, Mur23 out of caprazamycin/muraymycin biosynthetic gene cluster, particularly the nonheme αKG-dependent enzyme Cpz10. Cpz15 is a β-hydroxylase converting uridine mono-phosphate to uridine 5' aldehyde, then incorporating with threonine by Mur17 (Cpz14) to form 5'-C-glycyluridine. Cpz10 hydroxylates synthetic 11 to 12 in vitro. Major product 13 derived from mutant Δcpz10 is phosphorylated by Cpz27. β-Hydroxylation of 11 by Cpz10 permits the maturation of caprazamycin, but decarboxylation of 11 by Mur23 oriented to muraymycin formation. Cpz10 recruits two iron atoms to activate dioxygen with regio-/stereo-specificity and commit electron/charge transfer, respectively. The chemo-physical interrogations should greatly advance our understanding of caprazamycin biosynthesis, which is conducive to pathway/protein engineering for developing more effective nucleoside antibiotics.

Abstract
The eukaryotic thiamin pyrimidine synthase, THI5p, has been identified as a suicidal/single-turnover enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of its active site histidine and lysine-bound pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) to the thiamin pyrimidine (HMP-P). Here we identify the histidine and PLP fragments using bottom-up proteomics and LC-MS analysis. We also identify the active form of the iron cofactor and quantitate the oxygen requirement of the THI5p reaction. This information is integrated into a mechanistic proposal for this remarkable reaction.

Abstract
![]()
Rieske dioxygenases
catalyze the initial steps in the hydroxylation
of aromatic compounds and are critical for the metabolism of xenobiotic
substances. Because substrates do not bind to the mononuclear non-heme
FeII center, elementary steps leading to O2 activation
and substrate hydroxylation are difficult to delineate, thus making
it challenging to rationalize divergent observations on enzyme mechanisms,
reactivity, and substrate specificity. Here, we show for nitrobenzene
dioxygenase, a Rieske dioxygenase capable of transforming nitroarenes
to nitrite and substituted catechols, that unproductive O2 activation with the release of the unreacted substrate and reactive
oxygen species represents an important path in the catalytic cycle.
Through correlation of O2 uncoupling for a series of substituted
nitroaromatic compounds with 18O and 13C kinetic
isotope effects of dissolved O2 and aromatic substrates,
respectively, we show that O2 uncoupling occurs after the
rate-limiting formation of FeIII-(hydro)peroxo species
from which substrates are hydroxylated. Substituent effects on the
extent of O2 uncoupling suggest that the positioning of
the substrate in the active site rather than the susceptibility of
the substrate for attack by electrophilic oxygen species is responsible
for unproductive O2 uncoupling. The proposed catalytic
cycle provides a mechanistic basis for assessing the very different
efficiencies of substrate hydroxylation vs unproductive O2 activation and generation of reactive oxygen species in reactions
catalyzed by Rieske dioxygenases.

Abstract
Deacetoxycephalosporin C synthase (DAOCS) catalyzes the tranformation of penicillin G to phenylacetyl-7-aminodeacetoxycephalosporanic acid (G-7-ADCA) in dependence on 2-oxoglutarate (2OG). However, the low activity of DAOCS and the expense of 2OG restricted the practical application in the production of G-7-ADCA. Herein, a rational design campaign was performed on a DAOCS from Streptomyces clavuligerus (scDAOCS) in the quest to construct novel expandases. The resulting mutants showed 25~58% increase in activity compared to the template. The dominant DAOCS variants were then embeded into a three-enzyme co-expression system, consisting of a catalase and a L-glutamic oxidase for the generation of 2OG, to convert penicillin G into G-7-ADCA in E. coli . The engineered whole-cell enzyme cascade was applied on an up scaled reaction, exhibiting a yield of G-7-ADCA up to 39.21 mM (14.6 g·L -1 ) with a conversion of 78.42 mol%. This work highlights the potential of the integrated whole-cell system that may inspire further research on green and efficient production of 7-ADCA.

Abstract
Fe(II)/2-oxoglutarate dependent dioxygenases (ODDs) share a double stranded beta helix (DSBH) fold and utilise a common reactive intermediate, ferryl species, to catalyse oxidative transformations of substrates. Despite the structural similarities, ODDs accept a variety of substrates and facilitate a wide range of reactions, that is hydroxylations, desaturations, (oxa)cyclisations and ring rearrangements. In this review we present and discuss the factors contributing to the observed (regio)selectivities of ODDs. They span from inherent properties of the reactants, that is, substrate molecule and iron cofactor, to the interactions between the substrate and the enzyme's binding cavity; the latter can counterbalance the effect of the former. Based on results of both experimental and computational studies dedicated to ODDs, we also line out the properties of the reactants which promote reaction outcomes other than the "default" hydroxylation. It turns out that the reaction selectivity depends on a delicate balance of interactions between the components of the investigated system.

Abstract
Rieske dioxygenases belong to the non‐heme iron family of oxygenases and catalyze important cis‐dihydroxylation as well as O‐/N‐dealkylation and oxidative cyclization reactions for a wide range of substrates. The lack of substrate coordination at the non‐heme ferrous iron center, however, makes it particularly challenging to delineate the role of the substrate for productive O2
activation. Here, we studied the role of the substrate in the key elementary reaction leading to O2
activation from a theoretical perspective by systematically considering (i) the 6‐coordinate to 5‐coordinate conversion of the non‐heme FeII upon abstraction of a water ligand, (ii) binding of O2
, and (iii) transfer of an electron from the Rieske cluster. We systematically evaluated the spin‐state‐dependent reaction energies and structural effects at the active site for all combinations of the three elementary processes in the presence and absence of substrate using naphthalene dioxygenase as a prototypical Rieske dioxygenase. We find that reaction energies for the generation of a coordination vacancy at the non‐heme FeII
center through thermoneutral H2O reorientation and exothermic O2
binding prior to Rieske cluster oxidation are largely insensitive to the presence of naphthalene and do not lead to formation of any of the known reactive Fe‐oxygen species. By contrast, the role of the substrate becomes evident after Rieske cluster oxidation and exclusively for the 6‐coordinate non‐heme FeII
sites in that the additional electron is found at the substrate instead of at the iron and oxygen atoms. Our results imply an allosteric control of the substrate on Rieske dioxygenase reactivity to happen prior to changes at the non‐heme FeII
in agreement with a strategy that avoids unproductive O2
activation.

Abstract
Room-temperature molecular oxygen (O2) dissociation is challenging toward chemical reactions due to its triplet ground-state and spin-forbidden characteristic. Herein, we demonstrate that BiOCl of oxygen and chlorine dual vacancies can photocatalytically dissociate O2 into monatomic reactive oxygen (•O-) for the ring opening of aromatic refractory pollutants toward deep oxidation. The electron-rich and geometry-flexible dual vacancies of oxygen and chlorine remarkably lengthen the O-O bond of adsorbed O2 from 1.21 to 2.74 Å, resulting in the rapid O2 dissociation and the subsequent •O- formation. During the photocatalytic degradation of sulfamethazine, the in situ-formed •O- plays an indispensable role in breaking the critical intermediate of pyrimidine containing a stubborn aromatic heterocyclic ring, thus facilitating the overall mineralization. More importantly, BiOCl of oxygen and chlorine dual vacancies is also superior to its monovacancy counterparts on the degradation of other refractory pollutants containing conjugated six-membered rings, including p-chlorophenol, p-chloronitrobenzene, p-hydroxybenzoic acid, and p-nitrobenzoic acid. This study sheds light on the importance of sophisticated defects for regulating the O2 activation manner and deliveries a novel O2 activation approach for environmental remediation with solar energy.

Abstract
Structural regulation of the active centers is often pivotal in controlling the catalytic functions, especially in iron-based oxidation systems. Here, we discovered a significantly altered catalytic oxidation pathway via a simple cation intercalation into a layered iron oxychloride (FeOCl) scaffold. Upon intercalation of FeOCl with potassium iodide (KI), a new stable phase of K+-intercalated FeOCl (K-FeOCl) was formed with slided layers, distorted coordination, and formed high-spin Fe(II) species compared to the pristine FeOCl precursor. This structural manipulation steers the catalytic H2O2 activation from a traditional Fenton-like pathway on FeOCl to a nonradical ferryl (Fe(IV)═O) pathway. Consequently, the K-FeOCl catalyst can efficiently remove various organic pollutants with almost 2 orders of magnitude faster reaction kinetics than other Fe-based materials via an oxidative coupling or polymerization pathway. A reaction-filtration coupled process based on K-FeOCl was finally demonstrated and could potentially reduce the energy consumption by almost 50%, holding great promise in sustainable pollutant removal technologies.

Abstract
Heme compound II models bearing electron-deficient and -rich porphyrins, [FeIV(O)(TPFPP)(Cl)]− (1a) and [FeIV(O)(TMP)(Cl)]− (2a), respectively, are synthesized, spectroscopically characterized, and investigated in chemoselectivity and disproportionation reactions using cyclohexene as a mechanistic probe. Interestingly, cyclohexene oxidation by 1a occurs at the allylic C–H bonds with a high kinetic isotope effect (KIE) of 41, yielding 2-cyclohexen-1-ol product; this chemoselectivity is the same as that of nonheme iron(iv)-oxo intermediates. In contrast, as observed in heme compound I models, 2a yields cyclohexene oxide product with a KIE of 1, demonstrating a preference for C

C epoxidation. The latter result is interpreted as 2a disproportionating to form [FeIV(O)(TMP+˙)]+ (2b) and FeIII(OH)(TMP), and 2b becoming the active oxidant to conduct the cyclohexene epoxidation. In contrast to 2a, 1a does not disproportionate under the present reaction conditions. DFT calculations confirm that compound II models prefer C–H bond hydroxylation and that disproportionation of compound II models is controlled thermodynamically by the porphyrin ligands. Other aspects, such as acid and base effects on the disproportionation of compound II models, have been discussed as well. Disproportionation of Cpd II models depends on the electron-richness of the porphyrin ligand; Cpd II with an electron-deficient ligand is difficult to disproportionate, whereas Cpd II with an electron-rich ligand readily disproportionates to form Cpd I as a true oxidant.![]()

Abstract
Addition of dioxygen at low temperature to the non-heme ferrous complex FeII(Me3TACN)((OSiPh2)2O) (1) in 2-MeTHF produces a peroxo-bridged diferric complex Fe2III(μ-O2)(Me3TACN)2((OSiPh2)2O)2 (2), which was characterized by UV-vis, resonance Raman, and variable field Mössbauer spectroscopies. Illumination of a frozen solution of 2 in THF with white light leads to homolytic O-O bond cleavage and generation of a FeIV(O) complex 4 (ν(Fe=O) = 818 cm-1; δ = 0.22 mm s-1, ΔEQ = 0.23 mm s-1). Variable field Mössbauer spectroscopy measurements show that 4 is a rare example of a high-spin S = 2 FeIV(O) complex and the first synthetic example to be generated directly from O2. Complex 4 is highly reactive, as expected for a high-spin ferryl, and decays rapidly in fluid solution at cryogenic temperatures. This decay process in 2-MeTHF involves C-H cleavage of the solvent. However, the controlled photolysis of 2 in situ with visible light and excess phenol substrate leads to competitive phenol oxidation, via the proposed transient generation of 4 as the active oxidant.

Abstract
DFT and ab initio DLPNO-CCSD(T) calculations predict a stable S = 2 six-coordinate FeIVO species with cucurbit[5]uril (CB[5]) as a ligand ([(CB[5])FeIVO(H2O)]2+(1)). The strong oxidising capability of 1 far exceeds even that of metalloenzymes such as sMMOs in activating inert substrates such as methane, setting the stage for a new generation of biomimetic catalysts.

Abstract
A general interest in harnessing the oxidizing power of dioxygen (O2) continues to motivate research efforts on bioinspired and biomimetic complexes to better understand how metalloenzymes mediate these reactions. The ubiquity of Fe- and Cu-based enzymes attracts significant attention and has resulted in many noteworthy developments for abiotic systems interested in direct O2 reduction and small molecule activation. However, despite the existence of Mn-based metalloenzymes with important O2-dependent activity, there has been comparatively less focus on the development of these analogues relative to Fe- and Cu-systems. In this Perspective, we summarize important contributions to the development of bioinspired mononuclear Mn complexes for O2 activation and studies on their reactivity, emphasizing important design parameters in the primary and secondary coordination spheres and outlining mechanistic trends.

Abstract
Two major subclasses of mononuclear non-heme ferrous enzymes use two electron-donating organic cofactors (α-ketoglutarate or pterin) to activate O2 to form FeIV═O intermediates that further react with their substrates through hydrogen atom abstraction or electrophilic aromatic substitution. New spectroscopic methodologies have been developed, enabling the study of the active sites in these enzymes and their oxygen intermediates. Coupled to electronic structure calculations, the results of these spectroscopies provide fundamental insight into mechanism. This Perspective summarizes the results of these studies in elucidating the mechanism of dioxygen activation to form the FeIV═O intermediate and the geometric and electronic structure of this intermediate that enables its high reactivity and selectivity in product formation.

Abstract
"Enthalpy-Entropy Compensation Effect" (EECE) is ubiquitous in chemical reactions; however, such an EECE has been rarely explored in biomimetic oxidation reactions. In this study, six manganese(IV)-oxo complexes bearing electron-rich and -deficient porphyrins are synthesized and investigated in various oxidation reactions, such as hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), oxygen atom transfer (OAT), and electron-transfer (ET) reactions. First, all of the six Mn(IV)-oxo porphyrins are highly reactive in the HAT, OAT, and ET reactions. Interestingly, we have observed a reversed reactivity in the HAT and OAT reactions by the electron-rich and -deficient Mn(IV)-oxo porphyrins, depending on reaction temperatures, but not in the ET reactions; the electron-rich Mn(IV)-oxo porphyrins are more reactive than the electron-deficient Mn(IV)-oxo porphyrins at high temperature (e.g., 0 °C), whereas at low temperature (e.g., -60 °C), the electron-deficient Mn(IV)-oxo porphyrins are more reactive than the electron-rich Mn(IV)-oxo porphyrins. Such a reversed reactivity between the electron-rich and -deficient Mn(IV)-oxo porphyrins depending on reaction temperatures is rationalized with EECE; that is, the lower is the activation enthalpy, the more negative is the activation entropy, and vice versa. Interestingly, a unified linear correlation between the activation enthalpies and the activation entropies is observed in the HAT and OAT reactions of the Mn(IV)-oxo porphyrins. Moreover, from the previously reported HAT reactions of nonheme Fe(IV)-oxo complexes, a linear correlation between the activation enthalpies and the activation entropies is also observed. To the best of our knowledge, we report the first detailed mechanistic study of EECE in the oxidation reactions by synthetic high-valent metal-oxo complexes.

Abstract
The activation of O2 at thiolate-ligated iron(II) sites is essential to the function of numerous metalloenzymes and synthetic catalysts. Iron-thiolate bonds in the active sites of nonheme iron enzymes arise from either coordination of an endogenous cysteinate residue or binding of a deprotonated thiol-containing substrate. Examples of the latter include sulfoxide synthases, such as EgtB and OvoA, that utilize O2 to catalyze tandem S-C bond formation and S-oxygenation steps in thiohistidine biosyntheses. We recently reported the preparation of two mononuclear nonheme iron-thiolate complexes (1 and 2) that serve as structural active-site models of substrate-bound EgtB and OvoA (Dalton Trans. 2020, 49, 17745-17757). These models feature monodentate thiolate ligands and tripodal N4 ligands with mixed pyridyl/imidazolyl donors. Here, we describe the reactivity of 1 and 2 with O2 at low temperatures to give metastable intermediates (3 and 4, respectively). Characterization with multiple spectroscopic techniques (UV-vis absorption, NMR, variable-field and -temperature Mössbauer, and resonance Raman) revealed that these intermediates are thiolate-ligated iron(III) dimers with a bridging oxo ligand derived from the four-electron reduction of O2. Structural models of 3 and 4 consistent with the experimental data were generated via density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The combined experimental and computational results illuminate the geometric and electronic origins of the unique spectral features of diiron(III)-μ-oxo complexes with thiolate ligands, and the spectroscopic signatures of 3 and 4 are compared to those of closely-related diiron(III)-μ-peroxo species. Collectively, these results will assist in the identification of intermediates that appear on the O2 reaction landscapes of iron-thiolate species in both biological and synthetic environments.

Abstract
DNA alkylation is used as the key epigenetic mark in eukaryotes, however, most alkylation in DNA can result in deleterious effects. Therefore, this process needs to be tightly regulated. The enzymes of the AlkB and Ten-Eleven Translocation (TET) families are members of the Fe and alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent superfamily of enzymes that are tasked with dealkylating DNA and RNA in cells. Members of these families span all species and are an integral part of transcriptional regulation. While both families catalyze oxidative dealkylation of various bases, each has specific preference for alkylated base type as well as distinct catalytic mechanisms. This perspective aims to provide an overview of computational work carried out to investigate several members of these enzyme families including AlkB, ALKB Homolog 2, ALKB Homolog 3 and Ten-Eleven Translocate 2. Insights into structural details, mutagenesis studies, reaction path analysis, electronic structure features in the active site, and substrate preferences are presented and discussed.

Abstract
We report a bioinspired non-heme Fe complex with a tripodal [N3O]- ligand framework (Fe(PMG)(Cl)2) that is electrocatalytically active toward dioxygen reduction with acetic acid as a proton source in acetonitrile solution. Under electrochemical and chemical conditions, Fe(PMG)(Cl)2 selectively produces water via a 2+2 mechanism, where H2O2 is generated as a discrete intermediate species before further reduction to two equivalents of H2O. Mechanistic studies support a catalytic cycle for dioxygen reduction where an off-cycle peroxo dimer species is the resting state of the catalyst. Spectroscopic analysis of the reduced complex FeII(PMG)Cl shows the stoichiometric formation of an Fe(III)-hydroxide species following exposure to H2O2; no catalytic activity for H2O2 disproportionation is observed, although the complex is electrochemically active for H2O2 reduction to H2O. Electrochemical studies, spectrochemical experiments, and DFT calculations suggest that the carboxylate moiety of the ligand is sensitive to hydrogen-bonding interactions with the acetic acid proton donor upon reduction from Fe(III)/(II), favoring chloride loss trans to the tris-alkyl amine moiety of the ligand framework. These results offer insight into how mononuclear non-heme Fe active sites in metalloproteins distribute added charge and poise proton donors during reactions with dioxygen.

Abstract
Human aspartyl/asparaginyl beta-hydroxylase (HAAH) is a member of the superfamily of nonheme Fe2+/α-ketoglutarate (αKG) dependent oxygenase enzymes with a noncanonical active site. HAAH hydroxylates epidermal growth factor (EGF) like domains to form the β-hydroxylated product from substrate asparagine or aspartic acid and has been suggested to have a negative impact in a variety of cancers. In addition to iron, HAAH also binds divalent calcium, although the role of the latter is not understood. Herein, the metal binding chemistry and influence on enzyme stability and activity have been evaluated by a combined biochemical and biophysical approach. Metal binding parameters for the HAAH active site were determined by use of isothermal titration calorimetry, demonstrating a high-affinity regulatory binding site for Ca2+ in the catalytic domain in addition to the catalytic Fe2+ cofactor. We have analyzed various active site derivatives, utilizing LC-MS and a new HPLC technique to determine the role of metal binding and the second coordination sphere in enzyme activity, discovering a previously unreported residue as vital for HAAH turnover. This analysis of the in vitro biochemical function of HAAH furthers the understanding of its importance to cellular biochemistry and metabolic pathways.

DNA Demethylation in the Processes of Repair and Epigenetic Regulation Performed by 2-Ketoglutarate-Dependent DNA Dioxygenases. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms221910540. [PMID: 34638881 PMCID: PMC8508711 DOI: 10.3390/ijms221910540] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2021] [Revised: 09/26/2021] [Accepted: 09/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/05/2022] Open
Abstract
Site-specific DNA methylation plays an important role in epigenetic regulation of gene expression. Chemical methylation of DNA, including the formation of various methylated nitrogenous bases, leads to the formation of genotoxic modifications that impair DNA functions. Despite the fact that different pathways give rise to methyl groups in DNA, the main pathway for their removal is oxidative demethylation, which is catalyzed by nonheme Fe(II)/α-ketoglutarate–dependent DNA dioxygenases. DNA dioxygenases share a common catalytic mechanism of the oxidation of the alkyl groups on nitrogenous bases in nucleic acids. This review presents generalized data on the catalytic mechanism of action of DNA dioxygenases and on the participation of typical representatives of this superfamily, such as prokaryotic enzyme AlkB and eukaryotic enzymes ALKBH1–8 and TET1–3, in both processes of direct repair of alkylated DNA adducts and in the removal of an epigenetic mark (5-methylcytosine).

Abstract
A mononuclear non-heme iron(III)-peroxo complex, [Fe(III)(O2)(13-TMC)]+ (1), was synthesized and characterized spectroscopically; the characterization with electron paramagnetic resonance, Mössbauer, X-ray absorption, and resonance Raman spectroscopies and mass spectrometry supported a high-spin S = 5/2 Fe(III) species binding an O2 unit. A notable observation was an unusually high νO-O at ∼1000 cm-1 for the peroxo ligand. With regard to reactivity, 1 showed electrophilic reactivity in H atom abstraction (HAA) and O atom transfer (OAT) reactions. In the HAT reaction, a kinetic isotope effect (KIE) value of 5.8 was obtained in the oxidation of 9,10-dihydroanthracene. In the OAT reaction, a negative ρ value of -0.61 in the Hammett plot was determined in the oxidation of p-X-substituted thioanisoles. Another interesting observation was the electrophilic reactivity of 1 in the oxidation of benzaldehyde derivatives, such as a negative ρ value of -0.77 in the Hammett plot and a KIE value of 2.2. To the best of our knowledge, the present study reports the first example of a mononuclear non-heme iron(III)-peroxo complex with an unusually high νO-O value and unprecedented electrophilic reactivity in oxidation reactions.
