Abstract
A series of mononuclear manganese(III)-hydroxo and -aqua complexes, [MnIII(TBDAP)(OH)2]+ (1), [MnIII(TBDAP)(OH)(OH2)]2+ (2) and [MnIII(TBDAP)(OH2)2]3+ (3), were prepared from a manganese(II) precursor and confirmed using various methods including X-ray crystallography. Thermodynamic analysis showed that protonation from hydroxo to aqua species resulted in increased redox potentials (E1/2) in the order of 1 (-0.15 V) < 2 (0.56 V) < 3 (1.11 V), while pKa values exhibited a reverse trend in the order of 3 (3.87) < 2 (11.84). Employing the Bordwell Equation, the O-H bond dissociation free energies (BDFE) of [MnII(TBDAP)(OH)(OH2)]+ and [MnII(TBDAP)(OH2)2]2+, related to the driving force of 1 and 2 in hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), were determined as 75.3 and 77.3 kcal mol-1, respectively. It was found that the thermodynamic driving force of 2 in HAT becomes greater than that of 1 as the redox potential of 2 increases through protonation from 1 to 2. Kinetic studies on electrophilic reactions using a variety of substrates revealed that 1 is only weakly reactive with O-H bonds, whereas 2 can activate aliphatic C-H bonds in addition to O-H bonds. The reaction rates increased by 1.4 × 104-fold for the O-H bonds by 2 over 1, which was explained by the difference in BDFE and the tunneling effect. Furthermore, 3, possessing the highest redox potential value, was found to undergo an aromatic C-H bond activation reaction under mild conditions. These results provide valuable insights into enhancing electrophilic reactivity by modulating the redox potential of manganese(III)-hydroxo and -aqua complexes through protonation.

Abstract
Incorporation of secondary redox-inactive cations into heterobimetallic complexes is an attractive strategy for modulation of metal-centered redox chemistry, but quantification of the consequences of incorporating strongly Lewis acidic trivalent cations has received little attention. Here, a family of seven heterobimetallic complexes that pair a redox-active nickel center with La3+, Y3+, Lu3+, Sr2+, Ca2+, K+, and Na+ (in the form of their triflate salts) have been prepared on a heteroditopic ligand platform to understand how chemical behavior varies across the comprehensive series. Structural data from X-ray diffraction analysis demonstrate that the positions adopted by the secondary cations in the crown-ether-like site of the ligand relative to nickel are dependent primarily on the secondary cations' ionic radii and that the triflate counteranions are bound to the cations in all cases. Electrochemical data, in concert with electron paramagnetic resonance studies, show that nickel(II)/nickel(I) redox is modulated by the secondary metals; the heterogeneous electron-transfer rate is diminished for the derivatives incorporating trivalent metals, an effect that is dependent on steric crowding about the nickel metal center and that was quantified here with a topographical free-volume analysis. As related analyses carried out here on previously reported systems bear out similar relationships, we conclude that the placement and identity of both the secondary metal cations and their associated counteranions can afford unique changes in the (electro)chemical behavior of heterobimetallic species.

Abstract
Metalloenzymes with heteromultimetallic active sites perform chemical reactions that control several biogeochemical cycles. Transformations catalyzed by such enzymes include dioxygen generation and reduction, dinitrogen reduction, and carbon dioxide reduction-instrumental transformations for progress in the context of artificial photosynthesis and sustainable fertilizer production. While the roles of the respective metals are of interest in all these enzymatic transformations, they share a common factor in the transfer of one or multiple redox equivalents. In light of this feature, it is surprising to find that incorporation of redox-inactive metals into the active site of such an enzyme is critical to its function. To illustrate, the presence of a redox-inactive Ca2+ center is crucial in the Oxygen Evolving Complex, and yet particularly intriguing given that the transformation catalyzed by this cluster is a redox process involving four electrons. Therefore, the effects of redox inactive metals on redox processes-electron transfer, oxygen- and hydrogen-atom transfer, and O-O bond cleavage and formation reactions-mediated by transition metals have been studied extensively. Significant effects of redox inactive metals have been observed on these redox transformations; linear free energy correlations between Lewis acidity and the redox properties of synthetic model complexes are observed for several reactions. In this Perspective, these effects and their relevance to multielectron processes will be discussed.

Abstract
Nanozyme-based colorimetric assays have attracted much attention due to their cost-effectiveness, high stability, and sensitivity. In particular, the catalytic cascade imparted by the biological enzyme is highly selective. However, developing an efficient, one-pot, and pH-universal bio-nanozyme cascade remains challenging. Considering the tunable activity of the photo-activated nanozyme, we herein demonstrated a pH-universal colorimetric assay based on the Sc3+-boosted photocatalytic oxidation of carbon dots (C-dots). As a strong Lewis acid, Sc3+ shows ultra-fast complexation with OH- over a broad pH range and dramatically decreases the pH of the buffer solutions. In addition to regulating the pH, Sc3+ also binds to the C-dots to produce a persistent and strongly oxidizing intermediate based on photo-induced electron transfer. The proposed Sc3+-boosted photocatalytic system was successfully used in a cascade colorimetric assay with biological enzymes for assessing their activity as well as the detection of enzyme inhibitors at neutral and alkaline pH. Instead of designing new nanozymes for catalytic cascades, this work suggests that introducing promoters can be a convenient strategy in practical applications.

Abstract
There have been many examples of the accelerating effects of acids in electron transfer (ET), oxygen atom transfer (OAT), and hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) reactions. Herein, we report a contrasting effect of acids in the ET, OAT, and HAT reactions of a nickel(III) complex, [NiIII(PaPy3*)]2+ (1) in acetone/CH3CN (v/v 19:1). 1 was synthesized by reacting [NiII(PaPy3*)]+ (2) with magic blue or iodosylbenzene in the absence or presence of triflic acid (HOTf), respectively. Sulfoxidation of thioanisole by 1 and H2O occurred in the presence of HOTf, and the reaction rate increased proportionally with increasing concentration of HOTf ([HOTf]). The rate of ET from diacetylferrocene to 1 also increased linearly with increasing [HOTf]. In contrast, HAT from 9,10-dihydroanthracene (DHA) to 1 slowed down with increasing [HOTf], exhibiting an inversely proportional relation to [HOTf]. The accelerating effect of HOTf in the ET and OAT reactions was ascribed to the binding of H+ to the PaPy3* ligand of 2; the one-electron reduction potential (Ered) of 1 was positively shifted with increasing [HOTf]. Such a positive shift in the Ered value resulted in accelerating the ET and OAT reactions that proceeded via the rate-determining ET step. On the other hand, the decelerating effect of HOTf on HAT from DHA to 1 resulted from the inhibition of proton transfer from DHA•+ to 2 due to the binding of H+ to the PaPy3* ligand of 2. The ET reactions of 1 in the absence and presence of HOTf were well analyzed in light of the Marcus theory of ET in comparison with the HAT reactions.

Abstract
Dioxygen activation and catalysis around ambient temperature is a long-standing challenge in chemistry. Inspired by the significant roles of the hydrogen bond network in dioxygen activation and catalysis by redox enzymes, this work presents a Lewis acid improved dioxygen activation by an FeII(BPMEN)(OTf)2 complex towards tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO) activity for 3-methylindole and common olefinic CC bond oxygenation and cleavage (enzymatic Brønsted acid vs. chemical Lewis acid). It was found that the presence of a Lewis acid such as Sc3+ could substantially improve olefinic CC bond oxygenation and cleavage activity through FeII(BPMEN)(OTf)2 catalyzed dioxygen activation. Notably, a more negative ρ value in the Hammett plot of para-substituted styrene oxygenations was observed in the presence of a stronger Lewis acid, disclosing the enhanced electrophilic oxygenation capability of the putative iron(III) superoxo species through its electrostatic interaction with a stronger Lewis acid. Thereof, this work has demonstrated a new strategy in catalyst design for dioxygen activation and catalysis for olefin oxygenation, a significant process in the chemical industry.

Abstract
A cobalt porphyrin complex with a pendant imidazole base ([(L1 )CoII ]) is an efficient catalyst for the homogeneous catalytic two-electron reduction of dioxygen by 1,1'-dimethylferrocene (Me2 Fc) in the presence of triflic acid (HOTf), as compared with a cobalt porphyrin complex without a pendant imidazole base ([(L2 )CoII ]). The pendant imidazole ligand plays a crucial role not only to provide an imidazolinium proton for proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) from [(L1 )CoII ] to O2 in the presence of HOTf but also to facilitate electron transfer (ET) from [(L1 )CoII ] to O2 in the absence of HOTf. The kinetics analysis and the detection of intermediates in the stoichiometric and catalytic reduction of O2 have provided clues to clarify the crucial roles of the pendant imidazole ligand of [(L1 )CoII ] for the first time.

Abstract
Cations such as Lewis acids have been shown to enhance the catalytic activity of high-valent Fe-oxygen intermediates. Herein, we present a pyridine diamine ethylene glycol macrocycle, which can form Zn(II)- or Fe(III)-complex with the NNN site, while allowing redox-inactive cations to bind to the ethylene glycol moiety. The addition of alkali, alkali earth, and lanthanum ions resulted in positive shifts to the Fe(III/II) redox potential. Calculation of dissociation constants showed the tightest binding with a Ba2+ ion. Density functional theory calculations were used to elucidate the effects of redox inactive cations toward the electronic structures of Fe complexes. Although the Fe-NNN complexes, both in the absence and presence of cations, can catalyze C-H oxidation of 9,10-dihydroanthracene, to give anthracene [hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) product], anthrone, and anthraquinone [oxygen atom transfer (OAT) products], highest overall activity and OAT/HAT product ratios were obtained in the presence of dications, that is, Ba2+ and Mg2+, respectively.

Abstract
A mononuclear uranyl complex, [UO2L] (1), has been synthesized with the ligand N,N'-bis(3-methoxy-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-1,6-diamino-3-azahexane (H2L). The complex showed a reversible U(VI)/U(V) redox couple in cyclic voltammetric measurements. The reduction potential of this couple showed a positive shift upon the addition of redox-inactive alkali- and alkaline-earth Lewis acidic metal ions (Li+, Na+, K+, Ca2+, Sr2+, and Ba2+) to an acetonitrile solution of complex 1. The positive shift of the reduction potential has been explained on the basis of the Lewis acidity and internal electric-field effect of the respective metal ions. The bimetallic complexes [UO2LLi(NO3)] (2), [UO2LNa(BF4)]2 (3), [UO2LK(PF6)]2 (4), [(UO2L)2Ca]·(ClO4)2·CH3CN (5), [(UO2L)2Sr(H2O)2]·(ClO4)2·CH3CN (6), and [(UO2L)2Ba(ClO4)]·(ClO4) (7) have also been isolated in the solid state by reacting complex 1 with the corresponding metal ions and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Density functional theory calculations of the optimized [UO2LM]n+ complexes have been used to rationalize the experimental reduction and electric-field potentials imposed by the non-redox-active cations.

Abstract
Acids are known to enhance the reactivities of metal-oxygen intermediates, such as metal-oxo, -hydroperoxo, -peroxo, and -superoxo complexes, in biomimetic oxidation reactions. Although metal-aqua (and metal-hydroxo) complexes have been shown to be potent oxidants in oxidation reactions, acid effects on the reactivities of metal-aqua complexes have never been investigated previously. In this study, a mononuclear manganese(III)-aqua complex, [(dpaq5NO2)MnIII(OH2)]2+ (1; dpaq5NO2 = 2-[bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)]amino-N-quinolin-8-ylacetamidate with an NO2 substituent at the 5 position), which is relatively stable in the presence of triflic acid (HOTf), is used in the investigation of acid-catalyzed oxidation reactions by metal-aqua complexes. As a result, we report a remarkable acid catalysis in the six-electron oxidation of anthracene by 1 in the presence of HOTf; anthraquinone is formed as the product. In the HOTf-catalyzed six-electron oxidation of anthracene by 1, the rate constant increases linearly with an increase of the HOTf concentration. Combined with the observed one-electron oxidation product, anthracene (derivative) radical cation, and the substitution effect at the 5 position of the dpaq ligand in 1 on the rate constants of the oxidation of anthracene, it is concluded that the oxidation of anthracene occurs via an acid-promoted electron transfer (APET) from anthracene to 1. The dependence of the rate constants of the APET from electron donors, including anthracene derivatives, to 1 on the driving force of electron transfer is also shown to be well fitted by the Marcus equation of outer-sphere electron transfer. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first example showing acid catalysis in the oxidation of substrates by metal(III)-aqua complexes.

Abstract
The activation of metal-oxo species with Lewis acids is of current interest. In this work, the effects of a weak Brønsted acid such as CH3CO2H and a weak Lewis acid such as Ca2+ on C–H bond activation by KMnO4 have been investigated. Although MnO4− is rather non-basic (pKa of MnO3(OH) = −2.25), it can be activated by AcOH or Ca2+ to oxidize cyclohexane at room temperature to give cyclohexanone as the major product. A synergistic effect occurs when both AcOH and Ca2+ are present; the relative rates for the oxidation of cyclohexane by MnO4−/AcOH, MnO4−/Ca2+ and MnO4−/AcOH/Ca2+ are 1 : 73 : 198. DFT calculations show that in the active intermediate of MnO4−/AcOH/Ca2+, MnO4− is H-bonded to 3 AcOH molecules, while Ca2+ is bonded to 3 AcOH molecules as well as to an oxo ligand of MnO4−. Our results also suggest that these synergistic activating effects of a weak Brønsted acid and a weak Lewis acid should be applicable to a variety of metal-oxo species. The activation of metal-oxo species with Lewis acids is of current interest.![]()

Abstract
Coupled dinuclear copper oxygen cores (Cu2 O2 ) featured in type III copper proteins (hemocyanin, tyrosinase, catechol oxidase) are vital for O2 transport and substrate oxidation in many organisms. μ-1,2-cis peroxido dicopper cores (C P) have been proposed as key structures in the early stages of O2 binding in these proteins; their reversible isomerization to other Cu2 O2 cores are directly relevant to enzyme function. Despite the relevance of such species to type III copper proteins and the broader interest in the properties and reactivity of bimetallic C P cores in biological and synthetic systems, the properties and reactivity of C P Cu2 O2 species remain largely unexplored. Herein, we report the reversible interconversion of μ-1,2-trans peroxido (T P) and C P dicopper cores. CaII mediates this process by reversible binding at the Cu2 O2 core, highlighting the unique capability for metal-ion binding events to stabilize novel reactive fragments and control O2 activation in biomimetic systems.

Abstract
The sequential transfer of an electron, a proton and an electron in a hydride transfer from dihydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) and its analogues has never been separated well. In addition, the effect of acids on hydride transfer from an NADH analogue to a metal-superoxo species has yet to be reported. We report herein the first example of an acid-promoted hydride transfer from an NADH analogue, 10-methyl-9,10-dihydroacridine (AcrH2), to a Cr(iii)-superoxo complex, [(TMC)CrIII(O2)]2+, in the presence of HOTf in MeCN at 233 K. The acid-promoted hydride transfer from AcrH2 to [(TMC)CrIII(O2)]2+ occurs via a proton-coupled hydrogen atom transfer from AcrH2 to [(TMC)CrIII(O2)]2+ to produce a radical cation (AcrH2˙+) with an inverse deuterium isotope effect (KIE) of 0.93(5). AcrH2˙+ decayed via a proton transfer from AcrH2˙+ to AcrH2 with a KIE of 2.0(1), followed by the reaction of 10-methylacridinyl radical (AcrH˙) with [(TMC)CrIII(H2O2)]3+ to produce a 10-methylacridinium ion (AcrH+) and [(TMC)CrIII]3+. This work provides valuable insights into the mechanism of hydride transfer of NADH analogues by metal-superoxo intermediates, such as the switchover of the reaction mechanism from a one-step to a separated multi-step pathway in the presence of an acid.

Metal oxo (M

O) complexes are common oxidants in chemical and biological systems. The use of Lewis acids to activate metal oxo species has attracted great interest in recent years, especially after the discovery of the CaMn4O5 cluster in the oxygen-evolving centre of photosystem II. Strong Lewis acids such as Sc3+ and BF3, as well as strong Brønsted acids such as H2SO4 and CF3SO3H, are commonly used to activate metal oxo species. In this work, we demonstrate that relatively weak Lewis acids such as Ca2+ and other group 2 metal ions, as well as weak Brønsted acids such as CH3CO2H, can readily activate the stable RuO4− complex towards the oxidation of alkanes. Notably, the use of Ca2+ and CH3CO2H together produces a remarkable cooperative effect on RuO4−, resulting in a much more efficient oxidant. DFT calculations show that Ca2+ and CH3CO2H can bind to two oxo ligands to form a chelate ring. This results in substantial lowering of the barrier for hydrogen atom abstraction from cyclohexane. Combining a weak Lewis acid and weak Brønsted acid produces strong cooperative effects for activating metal oxo species towards alkane oxidation.![]()
