Abstract
Water resources are indispensable basic resources and important environmental carriers; the presence of organic contaminants in wastewater poses considerable risks to the health of both humans and ecosystems. Although the Fenton-like reactions using H2O2 as the oxidant to destroy organic pollutants are attractive, there are still challenges in improving reaction activity under neutral or even alkaline conditions. Herein, we designed a H2O2 activation pathway with O2•- as the main active species and elucidated that the spin interaction between Fe sites and coordinated O atoms effectively promotes the generation of the key intermediate Fe-*OOH. Furthermore, we successfully captured and analyzed the Fe-*OOH intermediate by in situ Raman spectroscopy. When applying FBOB to a continuous-flow reactor, CIP removal efficiency remained at around 90% within 600 min of continuous operation, achieving excellent efficiency, stability, and pH tolerance in removing pollutants.

Abstract
The N3O macrocycle of the 12-TMCO ligand stabilizes a high spin (S = 5/2) [FeIII(12-TMCO)(OOtBu)Cl]+ (3-Cl) species in the reaction of [FeII(12-TMCO)(OTf)2] (1-(OTf)2) with tert-butylhydroperoxide (tBuOOH) in the presence of tetraethylammonium chloride (NEt4Cl) in acetonitrile at -20 °C. In the absence of NEt4Cl the oxo-iron(iv) complex 2 [FeIV(12-TMCO)(O)(CH3CN)]2+ is formed, which can be further converted to 3-Cl by adding NEt4Cl and tBuOOH. The role of the cis-chloride ligand in the stabilization of the FeIII-OOtBu moiety can be extended to other anions including the thiolate ligand relevant to the enzyme superoxide reductase (SOR). The present study underlines the importance of subtle electronic changes and secondary interactions in the stability of the biologically relevant metal-dioxygen intermediates. It also provides some rationale for the dramatically different outcomes of the chemistry of iron(iii)peroxy intermediates formed in the catalytic cycles of SOR (Fe-O cleavage) and cytochrome P450 (O-O bond lysis) in similar N4S coordination environments.

Abstract
In many metalloenzymes, sulfur-containing ligands participate in catalytic processes, mainly via the involvement in electron transfer reactions. In a biomimetic approach, we now demonstrate the implication of S-ligation in cobalt mediated oxygen reduction reactions (ORR). A comparative study between the catalytic ORR capabilities of the four-nitrogen bound [Co(cyclam)]2+ (1; cyclam=1,5,8,11-tetraaza-cyclotetradecane) and the S-containing analog [Co(S2 N2 -cyclam)]2+ (2; S2 N2 -cyclam=1,8-dithia-5,11-diaza-cyclotetradecane) reveals improved catalytic performance once the chalcogen is introduced in the Co coordination sphere. Trapping and characterization of the intermediates formed upon dioxygen activation at the CoII centers in 1 and 2 point to the involvement of sulfur in the O2 reduction process as the key for the improved catalytic ORR capabilities of 2.

Abstract
Reported herein is the structural, spectroscopic, redox, and reactivity properties of a series of iron complexes containing both a π-donating thiolate, and π-accepting N-heterocycles in the coordination sphere, in which we systematically vary the substituents on the N-heterocycle, the size of the N-heterocycle, and the linker between the imine nitrogen and tertiary amine nitrogen. In contrast to our primary amine/thiolate-ligated Fe(II) complex, [FeII(SMe2N4(tren))]+ (1), the Fe(II) complexes reported herein are intensely colored, allowing us to visually monitor reactivity. Ferrous complexes with R = H substituents in the 6-position of the pyridines, [FeII(SMe2N4(6-H-DPPN)]+ (6) and [FeII(SMe2N4(6-H-DPEN))(MeOH)]+ (8-MeOH) are shown to readily bind neutral ligands, and all of the Fe(II) complexes are shown to bind anionic ligands regardless of steric congestion. This reactivity is in contrast to 1 and is attributed to an increased metal ion Lewis acidity assessed via aniodic redox potentials, Ep,a, caused by the π-acid ligands. Thermodynamic parameters (ΔH, ΔS) for neutral ligand binding were obtained from T-dependent equilibrium constants. All but the most sterically congested complex, [FeII(SMe2N4(6-Me-DPPN)]+ (5), react with O2. In contrast to our Mn(II)-analogues, dioxygen intermediates are not observed. Rates of formation of the final mono oxo-bridged products were assessed via kinetics and shown to be inversely dependent on redox potentials, Ep,a, consistent with a mechanism involving electron transfer.

Abstract
Superoxide (O2•-) is a toxic radical, generated via the adventitious reduction of dioxygen (O2), which has been implicated in a number of human disease states. Nonheme iron enzymes, superoxide reductase (SOR) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), detoxify O2•- via reduction to afford H2O2 and disproportionation to afford O2 and H2O2, respectively. The former contains a thiolate in the coordination sphere, which has been proposed to prevent O2•- oxidation to O2. The work described herein shows that, in contrast to this, oxidized thiolate-ligated [FeIII(SMe2N4(tren)(THF)]2+ (1ox-THF) is capable of oxidizing O2•- to O2. Coordinating anions, Cl- and OAc-, are shown to inhibit dioxygen evolution, implicating an inner-sphere mechanism. Previously we showed that the reduced thiolate-ligated [FeII(SMe2N4(tren))]+ (1) is capable of reducing O2•- via a proton-dependent inner-sphere mechanism involving a transient Fe(III)-OOH intermediate. A transient ferric-superoxo intermediate, [FeIII(SMe2N4(tren))(O2)]+ (3), is detected by electronic absorption spectroscopy at -130 °C in the reaction between 1ox-THF and KO2 and shown to evolve O2 upon slight warming to -115 °C. The DFT calculated O-O (1.306 Å) and Fe-O (1.943 Å) bond lengths of 3 are typical of ferric-superoxo complexes, and the time-dependent DFT calculated electronic absorption spectrum of 3 reproduces the experimental spectrum. The electronic structure of 3 is shown to consist of two antiferromagnetically coupled (Jcalc = -180 cm-1) unpaired electrons, one in a superoxo π*(O-O) orbital and the other in an antibonding π*(Fe(dyz)-S(py)) orbital.

Abstract
Spin states of iron often direct the selectivity in oxidation catalysis by iron complexes using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) on an oxidant. While low-spin iron(III) hydroperoxides display stereoselective C-H bond hydroxylation, the reactions are nonstereoselective with high-spin iron(II) catalysts. The catalytic studies with a series of high-spin iron(II) complexes of N4 ligands with H2O2 and Sc3+ reported here reveal that the Lewis acid promotes catalytic C-H bond hydroxylation with high chemo- and stereoselectivity. This reactivity pattern is observed with iron(II) complexes containing two cis-labile sites. The enhanced selectivity for C-H bond hydroxylation catalyzed by the high-spin iron(II) complexes in the presence of Sc3+ parallels that of the low-spin iron catalysts. Furthermore, the introduction of multimetal centers enhances the activity and selectivity of the iron catalyst. The study provides insights into the development of peroxide-dependent bioinspired catalysts for the selective oxygenation of C-H bonds without the restriction of using iron complexes of strong-field ligands.

Abstract
Parallel spectroscopic and computational studies of iron(III) cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) and synthetic models are presented. The synthetic complexes utilize the ligand tris(4,5-diphenyl-1-methylimidazol-2-yl)phosphine (Ph2TIP), which mimics the facial three-histidine triad of CDO and other thiol dioxygenases. In addition to the previously reported [FeII(CysOEt)(Ph2TIP)]BPh4 (1; CysOEt is the ethyl ester of anionic l-cysteine), the formation and crystallographic characterization of [FeII(2-MTS)(Ph2TIP)]BPh4 (2) is reported, where the methyl 2-thiosalicylate anion (2-MTS) resembles the substrate of 3-mercaptopropionate dioxygenase (MDO). One-electron chemical oxidation of 1 and 2 yields ferric species that bind cyanide and azide anions, which have been used as spectroscopic probes of O2 binding in prior studies of FeIII-CDO. The six-coordinate FeIII-CN and FeIII-N3 adducts are examined with UV-vis absorption, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and resonance Raman (rRaman) spectroscopies. In addition, UV-vis and rRaman studies of cysteine- and cyanide-bound FeIII-CDO are reported for both the wild-type (WT) enzyme and C93G variant, which lacks the Cys-Tyr cross-link that is present in the second coordination sphere of the WT active site. Density functional theory (DFT) and ab initio calculations are employed to provide geometric and electronic structure descriptions of the synthetic and enzymatic FeIII adducts. In particular, it is shown that the complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) method, in tandem with n-electron valence state second-order perturbation theory (NEVPT2), is capable of elucidating the structural basis of subtle shifts in EPR g values for low-spin FeIII species.

Abstract
Herein we quantitatively investigate how metal ion Lewis acidity and steric properties influence the kinetics and thermodynamics of dioxygen binding versus release from structurally analogous Mn-O2 complexes, as well as the barrier to Mn peroxo O-O bond cleavage, and the reactivity of Mn oxo intermediates. Previously we demonstrated that the steric and electronic properties of MnIII-OOR complexes containing N-heterocyclic (NAr) ligand scaffolds can have a dramatic influence on alkylperoxo O-O bond lengths and the barrier to alkylperoxo O-O bond cleavage. Herein, we examine the dioxygen reactivity of a new MnII complex containing a more electron-rich, less sterically demanding NAr ligand scaffold, and compare it with previously reported MnII complexes. Dioxygen binding is shown to be reversible with complexes containing the more electron-rich metal ions. The kinetic barrier to O2 binding and peroxo O-O bond cleavage is shown to correlate with redox potentials, as well as the steric properties of the supporting NAr ligands. The reaction landscape for the dioxygen chemistry of the more electron-rich complexes is shown to be relatively flat. A total of four intermediates, including a superoxo and peroxo species, are observed with the most electron-rich complex. Two new intermediates are shown to form following the peroxo, which are capable of cleaving strong X-H bonds. In the absence of a sacrificial H atom donor, solvent, or ligand, serves as a source of H atoms. With TEMPOH as sacrificial H atom donor, a deuterium isotope effect is observed (kH/kD = 3.5), implicating a hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) mechanism. With 1,4-cyclohexadiene, 0.5 equiv of benzene is produced prior to the formation of an EPR detected MnIIIMnIV bimetallic species, and 0.5 equiv after its formation.

Abstract
The reactivity of a mononuclear high-spin iron(III)-alkylperoxo intermediate [FeIII (t-BuLUrea )(OOCm)(OH2 )]2+ (2), generated from [FeII (t-BuLUrea )(H2 O)(OTf)](OTf) (1) [t-BuLUrea =1,1'-(((pyridin-2-ylmethyl)azanediyl)bis(ethane-2,1-diyl))bis(3-(tert-butyl)urea), OTf=trifluoromethanesulfonate] with cumyl hydroperoxide (CmOOH), toward the C-H and C=C bonds of hydrocarbons is reported. 2 oxygenates the strong C-H bonds of aliphatic substrates with high chemo- and stereoselectivity in the presence of 2,6-lutidine. While 2 itself is a sluggish oxidant, 2,6-lutidine assists the heterolytic O-O bond cleavage of the metal-bound alkylperoxo, giving rise to a reactive metal-based oxidant. The roles of the urea groups on the supporting ligand, and of the base, in directing the selective and catalytic oxygenation of hydrocarbon substrates by 2 are discussed.

Abstract
Bacteria are the most diverse and numerous organisms on the planet, inhabiting environments from the deep subsurface to particles in clouds. Across this range of conditions, bacteria have evolved a diverse suite of enzymes to mitigate cellular damage from reactive oxygen species (ROS). Here, we review the diversity and distribution of ROS enzymatic defense mechanisms across the domain Bacteria, using both peer-reviewed literature and publicly available genome databases. We describe the specific strategies used by well-characterized organisms in order to highlight differences in oxidative stress responses between aerobic, facultatively anaerobic, and anaerobic lifestyles. We present evidence from genome minimization experiments to suggest that ROS defenses are obligately required for life. This review clarifies the variability in ROS defenses across Bacteria, including the novel diversity found in currently uncharacterized Candidate Phyla.

Abstract
The iron(II) complexes [Fe(L)(MeCN)3 ](SO3 CF3 )2 (L are two derivatives of tris(2-pyridyl)-based ligands) have been synthesized as models for cysteine dioxygenase (CDO). The molecular structure of one of the complexes exhibits octahedral coordination geometry and the Fe-Npy bond lengths [1.953(4)-1.972(4) Å] are similar to those in the Cys-bound FeII -CDO; Fe-NHis : 1.893-2.199 Å. The iron(II) centers of the model complexes exhibit relatively high FeIII/II redox potentials (E1/2 =0.988-1.380 V vs. ferrocene/ferrocenium electrode, Fc/Fc+ ), within the range for O2 activation and typical for the corresponding nonheme iron enzymes. The reaction of in situ generated [Fe(L)(MeCN)(SPh)]+ with excess O2 in acetonitrile (MeCN) yields selectively the doubly oxygenated phenylsulfinic acid product. Isotopic labeling studies using 18 O2 confirm the incorporation of both oxygen atoms of O2 into the product. Kinetic and preliminary DFT studies reveal the involvement of an FeIII peroxido intermediate with a rhombic S= 1 / 2 FeIII center (687-696 nm; g≈2.46-2.48, 2.13-2.15, 1.92-1.94), similar to the spectroscopic signature of the low-spin Cys-bound FeIII CDO (650 nm, g≈2.47, 2.29, 1.90). The proposed FeIII peroxido intermediates have been trapped, and the O-O stretching frequencies are in the expected range (approximately 920 and 820 cm-1 for the alkyl- and hydroperoxido species, respectively). The model complexes have a structure similar to that of the enzyme and structural aspects as well as the reactivity are discussed.

Abstract
A nonheme Fe(ii) complex (1) that models substrate-bound cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) reacts with O2 at -80 °C to yield a purple intermediate (2). Analysis with spectroscopic and computational methods determined that 2 features a thiolate-ligated Fe(iii) center bound to a superoxide radical, mimicking the putative structure of a key CDO intermediate.

Abstract
Considerable effort has been devoted to the development of first-row transition-metal catalysts containing redox-active imino-pyridine ligands that are capable of storing multiple reducing equivalents. This property allows abundant and inexpensive first-row transition metals, which favor sequential one-electron redox processes, to function as competent catalysts in the concerted two-electron reduction of substrates. Herein we report the syntheses and characterization of a series of iron complexes that contain both π-donating thiolate and π-accepting (α-imino)-N-heterocycle redox-active ligands, with progressively larger N-heterocycle rings (imidazole, pyridine, and quinoline). A cooperative interaction between these complementary redox-active ligands is shown to dictate the properties of these complexes. Unusually intense charge-transfer (CT) bands, and intraligand metrical parameters, reminiscent of a reduced (α-imino)-N-heterocycle ligand (L•-), initially suggested that the electron-donating thiolate had reduced the N-heterocycle. Sulfur K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopic (XAS) data, however, provides evidence for direct communication, via backbonding, between the thiolate sulfur and the formally orthogonal (α-imino)-N-heterocycle ligand π*-orbitals. DFT calculations provide evidence for extensive delocalization of bonds over the sulfur, iron, and (α-imino)-N-heterocycle, and TD-DFT shows that the intense optical CT bands involve transitions between a mixed Fe/S donor, and (α-imino)-N-heterocycle π*-acceptor orbital. The energies and intensities of the optical and S K-edge pre-edge XAS transitions are shown to correlate with N-heterocycle ring size, as do the redox potentials. When the thiolate is replaced with a thioether, or when the low-spin S = 0 Fe(II) is replaced with a high-spin S = 3/2 Co(II), the N-heterocycle ligand metrical parameters and electronic structure do not change relative to the neutral L0 ligand. With respect to the development of future catalysts containing redox-active ligands, the energy cost of storing reducing equivalents is shown to be lowest when a quinoline, as opposed to imidazole or pyridine, is incorporated into the ligand backbone of the corresponding Fe complex.

Abstract
Ni-containing superoxide dismutase (NiSOD) represents an unusual member of the SOD family due to the presence of oxygen-sensitive Ni-SCys bonds at its active site. Reported in this account is the synthesis and properties of the NiII complex of the N3S2 ligand [N3S2Me2]3- ([N3S2Me2]3- = deprotonated form of 2-((2-mercapto-2-methylpropyl)(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amino)-N-(2-mercaptoethyl)acetamide), namely Na[Ni(N3S2Me2)] (2), as a NiSOD model that features sterically robust gem-(CH3)2 groups on the thiolate α-C positioned trans to the carboxamide. The crystal structure of 2, coupled with spectroscopic measurements from 1H NMR, X-ray absorption, IR, UV-vis, and mass spectrometry (MS), reveal a planar NiII (S = 0) ion coordinated by only the N2S2 basal donors of the N3S2 ligand. While the structure and spectroscopic properties of 2 resemble those of NiSODred and other models, the asymmetric S ligands open up new reaction paths upon chemical oxidation. One unusual oxidation product is the planar NiII-N3S complex [Ni(Lox)] (5; Lox = 2-(5,5-dimethyl-2-(pyridin-2-yl)thiazolidin-3-yl)-N-(2-mercaptoethyl)acetamide), where two-electron oxidation takes place at the substituted thiolate and py-CH2 carbon to generate a thiazolidine heterocycle. Electrochemical measurements of 2 reveal irreversible events wholly consistent with thiolate redox, which were identified by comparison to the ZnII complex Na[Zn(N3S2Me2)] (3). Although no reaction is observed between 2 and azide, reaction of 2 with superoxide produces multiple products on the basis of UV-vis and MS data, one of which is 5. Density functional theory (DFT) computations suggest that the HOMO in 2 is π* with primary contributions from Ni-dπ/S-pπ orbitals. These contributions can be modulated and biased toward Ni when electron-withdrawing groups are placed on the thiolate α-C. Analysis of the oxidized five-coordinate species 2ox* by DFT reveal a singly occupied spin-up (α) MO that is largely thiolate based, which supports the proposed NiIII-thiolate/NiII-thiyl radical intermediates that ultimately yield 5 and other products.

Abstract
Cysteinate oxygenation is intimately tied to the function of both cysteine dioxygenases (CDOs) and nitrile hydratases (NHases), and yet the mechanisms by which sulfurs are oxidized by these enzymes are unknown, in part because intermediates have yet to be observed. Herein, we report a five-coordinate bis-thiolate ligated Fe(III) complex, [FeIII(S2Me2N3(Pr,Pr))]+ (2), that reacts with oxo atom donors (PhIO, IBX-ester, and H2O2) to afford a rare example of a singly oxygenated sulfenate, [FeIII(η2-SMe2O)(SMe2)N3(Pr,Pr)]+ (5), resembling both a proposed intermediate in the CDO catalytic cycle and the essential NHase Fe-S(O)Cys114 proposed to be intimately involved in nitrile hydrolysis. Comparison of the reactivity of 2 with that of a more electron-rich, crystallographically characterized derivative, [FeIIIS2Me2NMeN2amide(Pr,Pr)]- (8), shows that oxo atom donor reactivity correlates with the metal ion's ability to bind exogenous ligands. Density functional theory calculations suggest that the mechanism of S-oxygenation does not proceed via direct attack at the thiolate sulfurs; the average spin-density on the thiolate sulfurs is approximately the same for 2 and 8, and Mulliken charges on the sulfurs of 8 are roughly twice those of 2, implying that 8 should be more susceptible to sulfur oxidation. Carboxamide-ligated 8 is shown to be unreactive towards oxo atom donors, in contrast to imine-ligated 2. Azide (N3-) is shown to inhibit sulfur oxidation with 2, and a green intermediate is observed, which then slowly converts to sulfenate-ligated 5. This suggests that the mechanism of sulfur oxidation involves initial coordination of the oxo atom donor to the metal ion. Whether the green intermediate is an oxo atom donor adduct, Fe-O═I-Ph, or an Fe(V)═O remains to be determined.

Abstract
The putative initial adduct of ferrous superoxide reductase (SOR) with superoxide has been alternatively formulated as ferric-peroxo or ferrous-superoxo. The ~600-nm UV-vis absorption band proposed to be assigned to this adduct (either as sole intermediate in the SOR catalytic cycle, or as one of the two intermediates) has recently been interpreted as due to a ligand-to-metal charge transfer, involving thiolate and superoxide in a ferrous complex, contrary to an alternative assignment as a predominantly cysteine thiolate-to-ferric charge transfer in a ferric-peroxo electromer. In an attempt to clarify the electromeric formulation of this adduct, we report a computational study using a multiconfigurational complete active space self-consistent field (MC-CASSCF) wave function approach as well as modelling the UV-vis absorption spectra with time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT). The MC-CASSCF calculations disclose a weak interaction between iron and the dioxygenic ligand and a dominant configuration with an essentially ferrous-superoxo character. The computed UV-vis absorption spectra reveal a marked dependence on the choice of density functional - both in terms of location of bands and in terms of orbital contributors. For the main band in the visible region, besides the recently reported thiolate-to-superoxide charge transfer, a more salient, and less functional-dependent, feature is a thiolate-to-ferric iron charge transfer, consistent with a ferric-peroxo electromer. By contrast, the computed UV-vis spectra of a ferric-hydroperoxo SOR model match distinctly better (and with no qualitative dependence on the DFT methodology) the 600-nm band as due to a mainly thiolate-to-ferric character - supporting the assignment of the SOR "600-nm intermediate" as a S=5/2 ferric-hydroperoxo species.

Abstract
Many fundamental processes of life depend on the chemical energy stored in the O–O bond of dioxygen (O2), the majority of which is derived from photosynthetic H2O oxidation. Key steps in these processes involve Mn-, Fe-, or Cu-promoted formation or cleavage of O–O and O–H bonds, the mechanisms of which are not fully understood, especially with Mn. Metal–peroxo and high-valent metal–oxo species are proposed to be involved as intermediates. The metal ion properties that favor O–O and O–H bond formation versus cleavage have yet to be systematically explored. Herein we examine the O2 reactivity of a series of structurally related Mn(II) complexes and show that several metastable intermediates are observed, the relative stabilities of which depend on subtle differences in ligand architecture. We show that in contrast to Fe and Cu complexes, O2 binds irreversibly to Mn(II). By crystallizing an entire series of the first reported examples of Mn(III)–OOR peroxos as well as an O2-derived binuclear trans-μ-1,2-bridged Mn(III)–peroxo with varying degrees of O–O bond activation, we demonstrate that there are distinct correlations between spectroscopic, structural, and reactivity properties. Rate-limiting O–O bond cleavage is shown to afford a reactive species capable of abstracting H atoms from 2,4-tBu2-PhOH or 1,4-cyclohexadiene, depending on the ligand substituents. The weakly coordinated N-heterocycle Mn···Npy,quino distance is shown to correlate with the peroxo O–O bond length and modulate the π overlap between the filled πv*(O–O) and Mn dxz orbitals. We also show that there is a strong correlation between the peroxo → Mn charge transfer (CT) band and the peroxo O–O bond length. The energy difference between the CT bands associated with the peroxos possessing the shortest and longest O–O bonds shows that these distances are spectroscopically distinguishable. We show that we can use this spectroscopic parameter to estimate the O–O bond length, and thus the degree of O–O bond activation, in intermediates for which there is no crystal structure, as long as the ligand environment is approximately the same.

Abstract
One-electron reduction of mononuclear nonheme iron(III) hydroperoxo (Fe(III)-OOH) and iron(III) alkylperoxo (Fe(III)-OOR) complexes by ferrocene (Fc) derivatives resulted in the formation of the corresponding iron(IV) oxo complexes. The conversion rates were dependent on the concentration and oxidation potentials of the electron donors, thus indicating that the reduction of the iron(III) (hydro/alkyl)peroxo complexes to their one-electron reduced iron(II) (hydro/alkyl)peroxo species is the rate-determining step, followed by the heterolytic O-O bond cleavage of the putative iron(II) (hydro/alkyl)peroxo species to give the iron(IV) oxo complexes. Product analysis supported the heterolytic O-O bond-cleavage mechanism. The present results provide the first example showing the one-electron reduction of iron(III) (hydro/alkyl)peroxo complexes and the heterolytic O-O bond cleavage of iron(II) (hydro/alkyl)peroxo species to form iron(IV) oxo intermediates which occur in nonheme iron enzymatic and Fenton reactions.

Abstract
The non-heme iron complexes, [Fe(II)(N3PySR)(CH3CN)](BF4)2 () and [Fe(II)(N3Py(amide)SR)](BF4)2 (), afford rare examples of metastable Fe(iii)-OOH and Fe(iii)-OOtBu complexes containing equatorial thioether ligands and a single H-bond donor in the second coordination sphere. These peroxo complexes were characterized by a range of spectroscopic methods and density functional theory studies. The influence of a thioether ligand and of one H-bond donor on the stability and spectroscopic properties of these complexes was investigated.

Abstract
We report that redox-inactive Sc(3+) can trigger O2 activation by the Fe(II)(TMC) center (TMC = tetramethylcyclam) to generate the corresponding oxoiron(IV) complex in the presence of BPh4(-) as an electron donor. To model a possible intermediate in the above reaction, we generated an unprecedented Sc(3+) adduct of [Fe(III)(η(2)-O2)(TMC)](+) by an alternative route, which was found to have an Fe(3+)-(μ-η(2):η(2)-peroxo)-Sc(3+) core and to convert to the oxoiron(IV) complex. These results have important implications for the role a Lewis acid can play in facilitating O-O bond cleavage during the course of O2 activation at non-heme iron centers.

Abstract
Manganese-peroxos are proposed as key intermediates in a number of important biochemical and synthetic transformations. Our understanding of the structural, spectroscopic, and reactivity properties of these metastable species is limited, however, and correlations between these properties have yet to be established experimentally. Herein we report the crystallographic structures of a series of structurally related metastable Mn(III)-OOR compounds, and examine their spectroscopic and reactivity properties. The four reported Mn(III)-OOR compounds extend the number of known end-on Mn(III)-(η(1)-peroxos) to six. The ligand backbone is shown to alter the metal-ligand distances and modulate the electronic properties key to bonding and activation of the peroxo. The mechanism of thermal decay of these metastable species is examined via variable-temperature kinetics. Strong correlations between structural (O-O and Mn···N(py,quin) distances), spectroscopic (E(πv*(O-O) → Mn CT band), ν(O-O)), and kinetic (ΔH(‡) and ΔS(‡)) parameters for these complexes provide compelling evidence for rate-limiting O-O bond cleavage. Products identified in the final reaction mixtures of Mn(III)-OOR decay are consistent with homolytic O-O bond scission. The N-heterocyclic amines and ligand backbone (Et vs Pr) are found to modulate structural and reactivity properties, and O-O bond activation is shown, both experimentally and theoretically, to track with metal ion Lewis acidity. The peroxo O-O bond is shown to gradually become more activated as the N-heterocyclic amines move closer to the metal ion causing a decrease in π-donation from the peroxo πv*(O-O) orbital. The reported work represents one of very few examples of experimentally verified relationships between structure and function.

Abstract
Iron(III) porphyrin complexes bearing covalently attached imidazole and thiolate axial ligands are investigated using resonance Raman, electron paramagnetic resonance, and cyclic voltammetry. The thiolate ligand stabilizes a low-spin ground state in solvent-bound six-coordinate species, weakens the Fe-N(pyr) bonds, and shifts the Fe(III/II) potential more negative by ~500 mV relative to an imidazole-bound species. Density functional theory calculations reproduce the experimental observation and indicate that the covalent charge donation from thiolate to iron reduces the Z(eff) on the iron. This increases the Fe(3d) orbital energies, which changes the bonding interaction present in these complexes significantly. In particular, the increase of the Fe(3d) energies activates an iron-to-porphyrin π*-back-bonding interaction not present in the imidazole-bound complex.

Abstract
Manipulation of energy and electron transfer processes in a light harvesting assembly is an important criterion to mimic natural photosynthesis. We have now succeeded in sequentially assembling CdSe quantum dot (QD) and squaraine dye (SQSH) on TiO(2) film and couple energy and electron transfer processes to generate photocurrent in a hybrid solar cell. When attached separately, both CdSe QDs and SQSH inject electrons into TiO(2) under visible-near-IR irradiation. However, CdSe QD if linked to TiO(2) with SQSH linker participates in an energy transfer process. The hybrid solar cells prepared with squaraine dye as a linker between CdSe QD and TiO(2) exhibited power conversion efficiency of 3.65% and good stability during illumination with global AM 1.5 solar condition. Transient absorption spectroscopy measurements provided further insight into the energy transfer between excited CdSe QD and SQSH (rate constant of 6.7 × 10(10) s(-1)) and interfacial electron transfer between excited SQSH and TiO(2) (rate constant of 1.2 × 10(11) s(-1)). The synergy of covalently linked semiconductor quantum dots and near-IR absorbing squaraine dye provides new opportunities to harvest photons from selective regions of the solar spectrum in an efficient manner.

Abstract
The non-heme iron enzyme cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) catalyzes the S-oxygenation of cysteine by O(2) to give cysteine sulfinic acid. The synthesis of a new structural and functional model of the cysteine-bound CDO active site, [Fe(II)(N3PyS)(CH(3)CN)]BF(4) (1) is reported. This complex was prepared with a new facially chelating 4N/1S(thiolate) pentadentate ligand. The reaction of 1 with O(2) resulted in oxygenation of the thiolate donor to afford the doubly oxygenated sulfinate product [Fe(II)(N3PySO(2))(NCS)] (2), which was crystallographically characterized. The thiolate donor provided by the new N3PyS ligand has a dramatic influence on the redox potential and O(2) reactivity of this Fe(II) model complex.

Abstract
The synthesis, structural, and spectroscopic characterization of four new coordinatively unsaturated mononuclear thiolate-ligated manganese(II) complexes ([Mn(II)(S(Me2)N(4)(6-Me-DPEN))](BF(4)) (1), [Mn(II)(S(Me2)N(4)(6-Me-DPPN))](BPh(4))·MeCN (3), [Mn(II)(S(Me2)N(4)(2-QuinoPN))](PF(6))·MeCN·Et(2)O (4), and [Mn(II)(S(Me2)N(4)(6-H-DPEN)(MeOH)](BPh(4)) (5)) is described, along with their magnetic, redox, and reactivity properties. These complexes are structurally related to recently reported [Mn(II)(S(Me2)N(4)(2-QuinoEN))](PF(6)) (2) (Coggins, M. K.; Kovacs, J. A. J. Am. Chem. Soc.2011, 133, 12470). Dioxygen addition to complexes 1-5 is shown to result in the formation of five new rare examples of Mn(III) dimers containing a single, unsupported oxo bridge: [Mn(III)(S(Me2)N(4)(6-Me-DPEN)](2)-(μ-O)(BF(4))(2)·2MeOH (6), [Mn(III)(S(Me2)N(4)(QuinoEN)](2)-(μ-O)(PF(6))(2)·Et(2)O (7), [Mn(III)(S(Me2)N(4)(6-Me-DPPN)](2)-(μ-O)(BPh(4))(2) (8), [Mn(III)(S(Me2)N(4)(QuinoPN)](2)-(μ-O)(BPh(4))(2) (9), and [Mn(III)(S(Me2)N(4)(6-H-DPEN)](2)-(μ-O)(PF(6))(2)·2MeCN (10). Labeling studies show that the oxo atom is derived from (18)O(2). Ligand modifications, involving either the insertion of a methylene into the backbone or the placement of an ortho substituent on the N-heterocyclic amine, are shown to noticeably modulate the magnetic and reactivity properties. Fits to solid-state magnetic susceptibility data show that the Mn(III) ions of μ-oxo dimers 6-10 are moderately antiferromagnetically coupled, with coupling constants (2J) that fall within the expected range. Metastable intermediates, which ultimately convert to μ-oxo bridged 6 and 7, are observed in low-temperature reactions between 1 and 2 and dioxygen. Complexes 3-5, on the other hand, do not form observable intermediates, thus illustrating the effect that relatively minor ligand modifications have upon the stability of metastable dioxygen-derived species.

Abstract
A variety of reactions of singlet oxygen with metal-bound thiolates are described, and contrasted with the photooxidation of organic sulfides. Superficially, these two processes appear to involve similar mechanisms, but there are important differences: unlike the photooxidation of organic sulfides, the rate of the initial reaction of metal-thiolates with singlet oxygen (k(t)) appears to be affected by protic solvents and acids. The nucleophilicity of the thiolate moiety is reduced by addition of acids or in protic solvents, leading to significantly lower k(t) values. The primary intermediate in the photooxidation of organic sulfides is a nucleophilic persulfoxide, which can be stabilized by protic solvents or by addition of acid. However, the primary intermediate in the photooxidation of metal thiolates cannot be trapped with phosphite, suggesting that it may be less nucleophilic than its organic counterpart. Support for this hypothesis is also derived from the rather modest (compared with organic sulfides) acceleration of the rate of product formation by addition of acid.

Abstract
Metastable Mn-peroxo species are proposed to form as key intermediates in biological oxidation reactions involving O(2) and C-H bond activation. The majority of these have yet to be spectroscopically characterized, and their inherent instability, in most cases, precludes structural characterization. Cysteinate-ligated metal-peroxos have been shown to form as reactive intermediates in both heme and nonheme iron enzymes. Herein we report the only examples of isolable Mn(III)-alkylperoxo species, and the first two examples of structurally characterized synthetic thiolate-ligated metal-peroxos. Spectroscopic data, including electronic absorption and IR spectra, and ESI mass spectra for (16)O vs (18)O-labeled metastable Mn(III)-OOR (R = (t)Bu, Cm) are discussed, as well as preliminary reactivity.

Abstract
We have generated a high-spin Fe(III)-OOH complex supported by tetramethylcyclam via protonation of its conjugate base and characterized it in detail using various spectroscopic methods. This Fe(III)-OOH species can be converted quantitatively to an Fe(IV)═O complex via O-O bond cleavage; this is the first example of such a conversion. This conversion is promoted by two factors: the strong Fe(III)-OOH bond, which inhibits Fe-O bond lysis, and the addition of protons, which facilitates O-O bond cleavage. This example provides a synthetic precedent for how O-O bond cleavage of high-spin Fe(III)-peroxo intermediates of non-heme iron enzymes may be promoted.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is frequently used to probe the substrate-binding site of "spectroscopically silent" non-heme Fe(2+) sites of metalloenzymes, such as superoxide reductase (SOR). Herein we use NO to probe the superoxide binding site of our thiolate-ligated biomimetic SOR model [Fe(II)(S(Me(2))N(4)(tren))](+) (1). Like NO-bound trans-cysteinate-ligated SOR (SOR-NO), the rhombic S = 3/2 EPR signal of NO-bound cis-thiolate-ligated [Fe(S(Me(2))N(4)(tren)(NO)](+) (2; g = 4.44, 3.54, 1.97), the isotopically sensitive ν(NO)(ν((15)NO)) stretching frequency (1685(1640) cm(-1)), and the 0.05 Å decrease in Fe-S bond length are shown to be consistent with the oxidative addition of NO to Fe(II) to afford an Fe(III)-NO(-) {FeNO}(7) species containing high-spin (S = 5/2) Fe(III) antiferromagnetically coupled to NO(-) (S = 1). The cis versus trans positioning of the thiolate does not appear to influence these properties. Although it has yet to be crystallographically characterized, SOR-NO is presumed to possess a bent Fe-NO similar to that of 2 (Fe-N-O = 151.7(4)°). The N-O bond is shown to be more activated in 2 relative to N- and O-ligated {FeNO}(7) complexes, and this is attributed to the electron-donating properties of the thiolate ligand. Hydrogen-bonding to the cysteinate sulfur attenuates N-O bond activation in SOR, as shown by its higher ν(NO) frequency (1721 cm(-1)). In contrast, the ν(O-O) frequency of the SOR peroxo intermediate and its analogues is not affected by H-bonds to the cysteinate sulfur or other factors influencing the Fe-SR bond strength; these only influence the ν(Fe-O) frequency. Reactions between 1 and NO(2)(-) are shown to result in the proton-dependent heterolytic cleavage of an N-O bond. The mechanism of this reaction is proposed to involve both Fe(II)-NO(2)(-) and {FeNO}(6) intermediates similar to those implicated in the mechanism of NiR-promoted NO(2)(-) reduction.

Abstract
Kinetic studies aimed at determining the most probable mechanism for the proton-dependent [Fe(II)(S(Me2)N(4)(tren))](+) (1) promoted reduction of superoxide via a thiolate-ligated hydroperoxo intermediate [Fe(III)(S(Me2)N(4)(tren))(OOH)](+) (2) are described. Rate laws are derived for three proposed mechanisms, and it is shown that they should conceivably be distinguishable by kinetics. For weak proton donors with pK(a(HA)) > pK(a(HO(2))) rates are shown to correlate with proton donor pK(a), and display first-order dependence on iron, and half-order dependence on superoxide and proton donor HA. Proton donors acidic enough to convert O(2)(-) to HO(2) (in tetrahydrofuran, THF), that is, those with pK(a(HA)) < pK(a(HO(2))), are shown to display first-order dependence on both superoxide and iron, and rates which are independent of proton donor concentration. Relative pK(a) values were determined in THF by measuring equilibrium ion pair acidity constants using established methods. Rates of hydroperoxo 2 formation displays no apparent deuterium isotope effect, and bases, such as methoxide, are shown to inhibit the formation of 2. Rate constants for p-substituted phenols are shown to correlate linearly with the Hammett substituent constants σ(-). Activation parameters ((ΔH(++) = 2.8 kcal/mol, ΔS(++) = -31 eu) are shown to be consistent with a low-barrier associative mechanism that does not involve extensive bond cleavage. Together, these data are shown to be most consistent with a mechanism involving the addition of HO(2) to 1 with concomitant oxidation of the metal ion, and reduction of superoxide (an "oxidative addition" of sorts), in the rate-determining step. Activation parameters for MeOH- (ΔH(++) = 13.2 kcal/mol and ΔS(++) = -24.3 eu), and acetic acid- (ΔH(++) = 8.3 kcal/mol and ΔS(++) = -34 eu) promoted release of H(2)O(2) to afford solvent-bound [Fe(III)(S(Me2)N(4)(tren))(OMe)](+) (3) and [Fe(III)(S(Me2)N(4)(tren))(O(H)Me)](+) (4), respectively, are shown to be more consistent with a reaction involving rate-limiting protonation of an Fe(III)-OOH, than with one involving rate-limiting O-O bond cleavage. The observed deuterium isotope effect (k(H)/k(D) = 3.1) is also consistent with this mechanism.

Abstract
In the absence of base, the reaction of [Fe(II)(TMCS)]PF6 (1, TMCS = 1-(2-mercaptoethyl)-4,8,11-trimethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) with peracid in methanol at -20 °C did not yield the oxoiron(IV) complex (2, [Fe(IV)(O)(TMCS)]PF6), as previously observed in the presence of strong base (KO(t)Bu). Instead, the addition of 1 equiv of peracid resulted in 50% consumption of 1. The addition of a second equivalent of peracid resulted in the complete consumption of 1 and the formation of a new species 3, as monitored by UV-vis, ESI-MS, and Mössbauer spectroscopies. ESI-MS showed 3 to be formulated as [Fe(II)(TMCS) + 2O](+), while EXAFS analysis suggested that 3 was an O-bound iron(II)-sulfinate complex (Fe-O = 1.95 Å, Fe-S = 3.26 Å). The addition of a third equivalent of peracid resulted in the formation of yet another compound, 4, which showed electronic absorption properties typical of an oxoiron(IV) species. Mössbauer spectroscopy confirmed 4 to be a novel iron(IV) compound, different from 2, and EXAFS (Fe═O = 1.64 Å) and resonance Raman (ν(Fe═O) = 831 cm(-1)) showed that indeed an oxoiron(IV) unit had been generated in 4. Furthermore, both infrared and Raman spectroscopy gave indications that 4 contains a metal-bound sulfinate moiety (ν(s)(SO2) ≈ 1000 cm (-1), ν(as)(SO2) ≈ 1150 cm (-1)). Investigations into the reactivity of 1 and 2 toward H(+) and oxygen atom transfer reagents have led to a mechanism for sulfur oxidation in which 2 could form even in the absence of base but is rapidly protonated to yield an oxoiron(IV) species with an uncoordinated thiol moiety that acts as both oxidant and substrate in the conversion of 2 to 3.

Abstract
Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations are performed on thiolate bound hydroperoxide complexes. O-O and Fe-O cleavage reaction coordinates, relevant to the active sites of Cytocrome P450 and Superoxide Reductase enzymes, were investigated for both high and low spin states and for cis and trans orientations of the thiolate ligand with respect to the hydroperoxide ligand. The results indicate that the presence of a thiolate ligand produces significant elongation of the Fe-O bond and reduction of Fe-O vibrational frequency. While the fate of the O-O cleavage reaction is not significantly altered, the presence of a thiolate induces a heterolytic Fe-O cleavage irrespective of the spin state and orientation which is very different from results obtained with a trans ammine ligand.

Abstract
A new five-coordinate, (N(4)S(thiolate))Fe(II) complex, containing tertiary amine donors, [Fe(II)(Me(4)[15]aneN(4))(SPh)]BPh(4) (2), was synthesized and structurally characterized as a model of the reduced active site of superoxide reductase (SOR). Reaction of 2 with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (tBuOOH) at -78 degrees C led to the generation of the alkylperoxo-iron(III) complex [Fe(III)(Me(4)[15]aneN(4))(SPh)(OOtBu)](+) (2a). The nonthiolate-ligated complex, [Fe(II)(Me(4)[15]aneN(4))(OTf)(2)] (3), was also reacted with tBuOOH and yielded the corresponding alkylperoxo complex [Fe(III)(Me(4)[15]aneN(4))(OTf)(OOtBu)](+) (3a) at an elevated temperature of -23 degrees C. These species were characterized by low-temperature UV-vis, EPR, and resonance Raman spectroscopies. Complexes 2a and 3a exhibit distinctly different spectroscopic signatures than the analogous alkylperoxo complexes [Fe(III)([15]aneN(4))(SAr)(OOR)](+), which contain secondary amine donors. Importantly, alkylation at nitrogen leads to a change from low-spin (S = 1/2) to high-spin (S = 5/2) of the iron(III) center. The resonance Raman data reveal that this change in spin state has a large effect on the nu(Fe-O) and nu(O-O) vibrations, and a comparison between 2a and the nonthiolate-ligated complex 3a shows that axial ligation has an additional significant impact on these vibrations. To our knowledge this study is the first in which the influence of a ligand trans to a peroxo moiety has been evaluated for a structurally equivalent pair of high-spin/low-spin peroxo-iron(III) complexes. The implications of spin state and thiolate ligation are discussed with regard to the functioning of SOR.

Abstract
The discovery of the metallopeptide Ni(Cysteine-Glycine-Cysteine)(2-), Ni(CGC)(2-), in the A-cluster active site of Acetyl CoA Synthase has prompted the synthesis of many small molecule models which employ M(N(2)S(2)) complexes as metalloligands. In vitro studies have shown that nickel incorporates into the N(2)S(2) binding pocket even when copper is in the enzyme growth medium, while copper is preferentially taken up in the proximal site, displacing the catalytically active nickel. (Darnault, C.; Volbeda, A.; Kim, E.J.; Legrand, P.; Vernede, X.; Lindahl, P.A.; Fontecilla-Camps, J.C. Nat. Struct. Biol. 2003, 10, 271-279.) The work herein has been designed to address the chemical viability of copper(II) within the tripeptide N(2)S(2) ligand set. To this end, a series of CuN(2)S(2)(2-) complexes, the resin-bound, O-Cu(CGC)(2-) (A) and free Cu(CGC)(2-) (B) complexes, as well as Cu(ema)(2-) (C) and Cu(emi)(2-) (D) dianions, have been characterized by UV-vis, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) spectroscopies, cyclic voltammetry (CV), and, where appropriate, X-ray diffraction studies, and compared to the Ni(II) congeners. EPR spectroscopic results have indicated that, in frozen N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) solution, the copper complexes are distorted square planar structures with nitrogen and sulfur donors. This is consistent with X-ray diffraction measurements which also show copper(II) in a distorted square planar environment that is bereft of CuN(2)S(2)(2-) intermolecular interactions. Density-functional theory (DFT) calculations resulted in optimized structures that are consistent with crystallographic data and indicated highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO)-singly occupied molecular orbital (SOMO) gaps of 5.01 and 4.68 eV for C and D, respectively. Optimized structures of Ni(ema)(2-) and Ni(emi)(2-) share the same basic characteristics as the copper(II) congeners. Electrochemical characterization of C and D resulted in a reversible Cu(III/II) couple at -1.20 V and - 1.40 V, respectively. Reactivity studies with Rh(CO)(2)(+) show similar donor capabilities for complexes A-D. Analysis of A shows that transmetalation does not occur. From competitive metal uptake studies on immobilized tripeptide it is concluded that the N(2)S(2)(4-) ligating unit has a slight preference for Cu(2+) over Ni(2+) and that the biosynthetic pathway responsible for constructing the distal site of ACS must be selective for nickel insertion or copper exclusion, or both.

Abstract
Iron peroxide species have been identified as important intermediates in a number of nonheme iron as well as heme-containing enzymes, yet there are only a few examples of such species either synthetic or biological that have been well characterized. We describe the synthesis and structural characterization of a new series of five-coordinate (N4S(thiolate))Fe(II) complexes that react with tert-butyl hydroperoxide ((t)BuOOH) or cumenyl hydroperoxide (CmOOH) to give metastable alkylperoxo-iron(III) species (N4S(thiolate)Fe(III)-OOR) at low temperature. These complexes were designed specifically to mimic the nonheme iron active site of superoxide reductase, which contains a five-coordinate iron(II) center bound by one Cys and four His residues in the active form of the protein. The structures of the Fe(II) complexes are analyzed by X-ray crystallography, and their electrochemical properties are assessed by cyclic voltammetry. For the Fe(III)-OOR species, low-temperature UV-vis spectra reveal intense peaks between 500-550 nm that are typical of peroxide to iron(III) ligand-to-metal charge-transfer (LMCT) transitions, and EPR spectroscopy shows that these alkylperoxo species are all low-spin iron(III) complexes. Identification of the vibrational modes of the Fe(III)-OOR unit comes from resonance Raman (RR) spectroscopy, which shows nu(Fe-O) modes between 600-635 cm(-1) and nu(O-O) bands near 800 cm(-1). These Fe-O stretching frequencies are significantly lower than those found in other low-spin Fe(III)-OOR complexes. Trends in the data conclusively show that this weakening of the Fe-O bond arises from a trans influence of the thiolate donor, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations support these findings. These results suggest a role for the cysteine ligand in SOR, and are discussed in light of the recent assessments of the function of the cysteine ligand in this enzyme.

Abstract
The oxygen sensitivity of two related iron(III) dithiolate complexes of the ligand [4,7-bis-(2'-methyl-2'-mercatopropyl)-1-thia-4,7-diazacyclononane], (bmmp-TASN)FeCN (1) and (bmmp-TASN)FeCl (2), has been examined. Oxygen exposure of the low-spin complex 1 yields the disulfonate complex (bmmp-O6-TASN)FeCN (3) as an olive-green solid with characteristic peaks in the IR spectrum at 1262, 1221, 1111, 1021, 947, 800, and 477 cm(-1). The corresponding nickel dithiolate, (bmmp-TASN)Ni (4), yields the related disulfonato derivative, (bmmp-O6-TASN)Ni (5) upon addition of H2O2 (IR bands at 1258, 1143, 1106, 1012, 800, and 694 cm(-1). Oxygen exposure of the high-spin complex 2 results in disulfide formation and decomplexation of the metal with subsequent iron-oxo cluster formation. Complexes 1 and 2 were examined using density functional theory calculations. A natural bond order/natural localized molecular orbital covalency analysis reveals that the low-spin complex 1 contains Fe-Sthiolate bonds with calculated covalencies of 75 and 86%, while the high-spin complex 2 contains Fe-Sthiolate bonds with calculated covalencies of 11 and 40%. The results indicate the degree of covalency of the Fe-S bonds plays a major role in determining the reaction pathway associated with oxygen exposure of iron thiolates. The X-ray structures of 1, 4, and 5 are reported.
