Abstract
Reported are the synthesis and detailed studies of the iron(IV)-tosylimido complexes of two isomeric pentadentate bispidine ligands (bispidines are 3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane derivatives). This completes a series of five tosylimido complexes with comparable pentadentate amine/pyridine ligands, where the corresponding [(L)FeIV═O]2+ oxidants have been studied in detail. The characterization of the two new complexes in solution (UV-vis-NIR, Mössbauer, HR-ESI-MS) shows that these oxidants have an intermediate spin (S = 1) electronic ground state. The reactivities have been studied as oxidants in C-H activation at 1,3-cyclohexadiene and nitrogen atom transfer to thioanisole. For the latter substrate, the entire set of data for the five ligands and for both nitrogen and oxygen atom transfer is now available and the interesting observation is that oxygen atom transfer is, as expected, generally faster than nitrogen atom transfer, with the exception of the two ligands that have four and three pyridine groups oriented parallel to the Fe-O and Fe-N axes. A thorough DFT analysis indicates that this is due to steric effects in the case of the [(L)FeIV═O]2+ species, which are less important in the [(L)FeIV═NTs]2+ compounds due to partial electron transfer from the thioanisole substrate to the iron(IV)-tosylimido oxidant.

Abstract
Precise control of substrate positioning and orientation (its proximity to the reactive unit) is often invoked to rationalize the superior enzymatic reaction rates and selectivities when compared to synthetic models. Artificial nonheme iron (IV) oxo (Fe(IV)=O) complexes react with C(sp3)-H bonds via a biomimetic Hydrogen Atom Transfer/Hydroxyl Rebound mechanism, but rates, site-selectivity and even hydroxyl rebound efficiency (ligand rebound versus substrate radical diffusion) are smaller than in oxygenases. Herein, we quantitatively analyze how substrate binding modulates nonheme Fe(IV)=O reactivity by comparing rates and outcomes of C-H oxidation by a pair of Fe(IV)=O complexes that share the same first coordination sphere but only one contains a crown ether receptor that recognizes the substrate. Substrate binding makes the reaction intramolecular, exhibiting Michaelis-Menten kinetics and increased reaction rates. In addition, C-H oxidation occurs with high site selectivity for remote sites. Analysis of Effective Molarity reveals that the system operates at its maximal theoretical capability for the oxidation of these remote sites. Remarkably, substrate positioning also affects Hydroxyl Rebound, whose efficiency only increases on the sites placed in proximity by recognition. Overall, these observations provide evidence that supramolecular control of substrate positioning can effectively modulate the reactivity of oxygenases and its models.

Abstract
TMC-anti and TMC-syn, the two topological isomers of [FeIV(O)(TMC)(CH3CN)]2+ (TMC = 1,4,8,11-tetramethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane, or Me4cyclam), differ in the orientations of their FeIV=O units relative to the four methyl groups of the TMC ligand framework. The FeIV=O unit of TMC-anti points away from the four methyl groups, while that of TMC-syn is surrounded by the methyl groups, resulting in differences in their oxidative reactivities. TMC-syn reacts with HAT (hydrogen atom transfer) substrates at 1.3- to 3-fold faster rates than TMC-anti, but the reactivity difference increases dramatically in oxygen-atom transfer reactions. R2S substrates are oxidized into R2S=O products at rates 2-to-3 orders of magnitude faster by TMC-syn than TMC-anti. Even more remarkably, TMC-syn epoxidizes all the olefin substrates in this study, while TMC-anti reacts only with cis-cyclooctene but at a 100-fold slower rate. Comprehensive quantum chemical calculations have uncovered the key factors governing such reactivity differences found between these two topological isomers.

Abstract
Owing to their high reactivity and selectivity, variations in the spin ground state and a range of possible pathways, high-valent FeIV =O species are popular models with potential bioinspired applications. An interesting example of a structure-reactivity pattern is the detailed study with five nonheme amine-pyridine pentadentate ligand FeIV =O species, including N4py: [(L1 )FeIV =O]2+ (1), bntpen: [(L2 )FeIV =O]2+ (2), py2 tacn: [(L3 )FeIV =O]2+ (3), and two isomeric bispidine derivatives: [(L4 )FeIV =O]2+ (4) and [(L5 )FeIV =O]2+ (5). In this set, the order of increasing reactivity in the hydroxylation of cyclohexane differs from that with cyclohexadiene as substrate. A comprehensive DFT, ab initio CASSCF/NEVPT2 and DLPNO-CCSD(T) study is presented to untangle the observed patterns. These are well reproduced when both activation barriers for the C-H abstraction and the OH rebound are taken into account. An MO, NBO and deformation energy analysis reveals the importance of π(pyr) → π*xz (FeIII -OH) electron donation for weakening the FeIII -OH bond and thus reducing the rebound barrier. This requires that pyridine rings are oriented perpendicularly to the FeIII -OH bond and this is a subtle but crucial point in ligand design for non-heme iron alkane hydroxylation.

Abstract
The reactivity of FeIII -alkylperoxido complexes has remained a riddle to inorganic chemists owing to their thermal instability and impotency towards organic substrates. These iron-oxygen adducts have been known as sluggish oxidants towards oxidative electrophilic and nucleophilic reactions. Herein, we report the synthesis and spectroscopic characterization of a relatively stable mononuclear high-spin FeIII -alkylperoxido complex supported by an engineered bispidine framework. Against the notion, this FeIII -alkylperoxido complex serves as a rare example of versatile reactivity in both electrophilic and nucleophilic reactions. Detailed mechanistic studies and computational calculations reveal a novel reaction mechanism, where a putative superoxido intermediate orchestrates the amphoteric property of the oxidant. The design of the backbone is pivotal to convey stability and reactivity to alkylperoxido and superoxido intermediates. Contrary to the well-known O-O bond cleavage that generates an FeIV -oxido species, the FeIII -alkylperoxido complex reported here undergoes O-C bond scission to generate a superoxido moiety that is responsible for the amphiphilic reactivity.

Nonheme Fe IV═O Complexes Supported by Four Pentadentate Ligands: Reactivity toward H- and O- Atom Transfer Processes. Inorg Chem 2023; 62:18338-18356.

Abstract
Four new pentadentate N5-donor ligands, [N-(1-methyl-2-imidazolyl)methyl-N-(2-pyridyl)-methyl-N-(bis-2-pyridylmethyl)-amine] (L1), [N-bis(1-methyl-2-imidazolyl)methyl-N-(bis-2-pyridylmethyl)amine] (L2), (N-(isoquinolin-3-ylmethyl)-1,1-di(pyridin-2-yl)-N-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)methanamine (L3), and N,N-bis(isoquinolin-3-ylmethyl)-1,1-di(pyridin-2-yl)methanamine (L4), have been synthesized based on the N4Py ligand framework, where one or two pyridyl arms of the N4Py parent are replaced by (N-methyl)imidazolyl or N-(isoquinolin-3-ylmethyl) moieties. Using these four pentadentate ligands, the mononuclear complexes [FeII(CH3CN)(L1)]2+ (1a), [FeII(CH3CN)(L2)]2+ (2a), [FeII(CH3CN)(L3)]2+ (3a), and [FeII(CH3CN)(L4)]2+ (4a) have been synthesized and characterized. The half-wave potentials (E1/2) of the complexes become more positive in the order: 2a < 1a < 4a ≤ 3a ≤ [Fe(N4Py)(CH3CN)]2+. The order of redox potentials correlates well with the Fe-Namine distances observed by crystallography, which are 2a > 1a ≥ 4a > 3a ≥ [Fe(N4Py)(CH3CN)]2+. The corresponding ferryl complexes [FeIV(O)(L1)]2+ (1b), [FeIV(O)(L2)]2+ (2b), [FeIV(O)(L3)]2+ (3b), and [FeIV(O)(L4)]2+ (4b) were prepared by the reaction of the ferrous complexes with isopropyl 2-iodoxybenzoate (IBX ester) in acetonitrile. The greenish complexes 3b and 4b were also isolated in the solid state by the reaction of the ferrous complexes in CH3CN with ceric ammonium nitrate in water. Mössbauer spectroscopy and magnetic measurements (using superconducting quantum interference device) show that the four complexes 1b, 2b, 3b, and 4b are low-spin (S = 1) FeIV═O complexes. UV/vis spectra of the four FeIV═O complexes in acetonitrile show typical long-wavelength absorptions of around 700 nm, which are expected for FeIV═O complexes with N4Py-type ligands. The wavelengths of these absorptions decrease in the following order: 721 nm (2b) > 706 nm (1b) > 696 nm (4b) > 695 nm (3b) = 695 nm ([FeIV(O) (N4Py)]2+), indicating that the replacement of the pyridyl arms with (N-methyl) imidazolyl moieties makes L1 and L2 exert weaker ligand fields than the parent N4Py ligand, while the ligand field strengths of L3 and L4 are similar to the N4Py parent despite the replacement of the pyridyl arms with N-(isoquinolin-3-ylmethyl) moieties. Consequently, complexes 1b and 2b tend to be less stable than the parent [FeIV(O)(N4Py)]2+ complex: the half-life sequence at room temperature is 1.67 h (2b) < 16 h (1b) < 45 h (4b) < 63 h (3b) ≈ 60 h ([FeIV(O)(N4Py)]2+). Compared to the parent complex, 1b and 2b exhibit enhanced reactivity in both the oxidation of thioanisole in the oxygen atom transfer (OAT) reaction and the oxygenation of C-H bonds of aromatic and aliphatic substrates, presumed to occur via an oxygen rebound process. Furthermore, the second-order rate constants for hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) reactions affected by the ferryl complexes can be directly related to the C-H bond dissociation energies of a range of substrates that have been studied. Using either IBX ester or H2O2 as an oxidant, all four new FeII complexes display good performance in catalytic reactions involving both HAT and OAT reactions.

Abstract
Recently, there have been several experimental demonstrations of how the rates of concerted proton electron transfer (CPET) are affected by stepwise thermodynamic parameters of only proton (ΔG°PT) or electron (ΔG°ET) transfer. Semiclassical structure-activity relationships have been invoked to rationalize these linear free energy relationships, but it is not clear how they would manifest in a nonadiabatic reaction. Using density functional theory calculations, we demonstrate how a decrease in ΔG°PT can lead to transition state imbalance in a nonadiabatic framework. We then use these calculations to anchor a theoretical model that reproduces experimental trends with ΔG°PT and ΔG°ET. Our results reconcile predictions from semiclassical transition state theory with models that treat proton transfer quantum mechanically in CPET reactivity, make new predictions about the importance of basicity for uphill CPET reactions, and suggest similar treatments may be possible for other nonadiabatic reactions.

Abstract
The development of (bio)catalysts capable of selectively activating strong C-H bonds is a continuing challenge in modern chemistry. In both metalloenzymes and synthetic systems capable of activating C-H bonds, transition metal-oxido intermediates serve as the active species for reactivity whose thermodynamic properties influence the bond strengths they are capable of activating. In this Frontier article, we present current ideas of how the basicity of transition metal-oxidos impacts their reactivity with C-H bonds and present new opportunities within this field. We highlight recent insights into the role basicity plays in the activation process and its influence on mechanism, as well as the important role that secondary coordination sphere effects, such as hydrogen bonds, in tuning the basicity of the metal-oxido species is discussed.

Abstract
Non-heme Fe monooxygenases activate C-H bonds using intermediates with high-spin FeIV-oxido centers. To mimic these sites, a new tripodal ligand [pop]3- was prepared that contains three phosphoryl amido groups that are capable of stabilizing metal centers in high oxidation states. The ligand was used to generate [FeIVpop(O)]-, a new FeIV-oxido complex with an S = 2 spin ground state. Spectroscopic measurements, which included low-temperature absorption and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, supported the assignment of a high-spin FeIV center. The complex showed reactivity with benzyl alcohol as the external substrate but not with related compounds (e.g., ethyl benzene and benzyl methyl ether), suggesting the possibility that hydrogen bonding interaction(s) between the substrate and [FeIVpop(O)]- was necessary for reactivity. These results exemplify the potential role of the secondary coordination sphere in metal-mediated processes.

Abstract
Entropy is a thermodynamic function used in chemistry to determine the disorder and irregularities of molecules in a specific system or process. It does this by calculating the possible configurations for each molecule. It is applicable to numerous issues in biology, inorganic and organic chemistry, and other relevant fields. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a family of molecules that have piqued the curiosity of scientists in recent years. They are extensively researched due to their prospective applications and the increasing amount of information about them. Scientists are constantly discovering novel MOFs, which results in an increasing number of representations every year. Furthermore, new applications for MOFs continue to arise, illustrating the materials' adaptability. This article investigates the characterisation of the metal-organic framework of iron(III) tetra-p-tolyl porphyrin (FeTPyP) and CoBHT (CO) lattice. By constructing these structures with degree-based indices such as the K-Banhatti, redefined Zagreb, and the atom-bond sum connectivity indices, we also employ the information function to compute entropies.

Abstract
The FeIVO complexes of bispidines (3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane derivatives) are known to be highly reactive oxidants - with the tetradentate bispidine, the so far most reactive ferryl complex has been reported and two isomeric pentadentate ligands also lead to very reactive high-valent oxidants. With a series of 4 new bispidine derivatives we now try to address the question why the bispidine scaffold in general leads to very reactive oxidants and how this can be tuned by ligand modifications. The study is based on a full structural, spectroscopic and electrochemical analysis of the iron(II) precursors, spectroscopic data of the iron(IV)-oxido complexes, a kinetic analysis of the stoichiometric oxidation of thioanisole by five different bispidine‑iron(IV)-oxido complexes and on product analyses of reactions by the five ferryl oxidants with thioanisole, β-methylstyrene and cis-stilbene as substrates.

Abstract
Two oxoiron(IV) isomers (R 2a and R 2b) of general formula [FeIV (O)(R PyNMe3 )(CH3 CN)]2+ are obtained by reaction of their iron(II) precursor with NBu4 IO4 . The two isomers differ in the position of the oxo ligand, cis and trans to the pyridine donor. The mechanism of isomerization between R 2a and R 2b has been determined by kinetic and computational analyses uncovering an unprecedented path for interconversion of geometrical oxoiron(IV) isomers. The activity of the two oxoiron(IV) isomers in hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) reactions shows that R 2a reacts one order of magnitude faster than R 2b, which is explained by a repulsive noncovalent interaction between the ligand and the substrate in R 2b. Interestingly, the electronic properties of the R substituent in the ligand pyridine ring do not have a significant effect on reaction rates. Overall, the intrinsic structural aspects of each isomer define their relative HAT reactivity, overcoming changes in electronic properties of the ligand.

Abstract
Mononuclear high-valent iron(IV)-oxo intermediates are excellent oxidants towards oxygenation reactions by heme and nonheme metalloenzymes and their model systems. One of the most important functions of these intermediates in nature is to detoxify various environmental pollutants. Organic substrates, such as halogenated phenols, are known to be water pollutants which can be degraded to their less hazardous forms through an oxidation reaction by iron(IV)-oxo complexes. Metalloproteins in nature utilize various types of second-coordination sphere interactions to anchor the substrate in the vicinity of the active site. This concept of substrate-binding is well-known for natural enzymes, but is elusive for the relevant biomimetic model systems. Herein, we report the oxidative reactivity patterns of an iron(IV)-oxo intermediate, [FeIV(O)(2PyN2Q)]2+, (2PyN2Q = 1,1-di(pyridin-2yl)-N,N-bis(quinolin-2-ylmethyl)methanamine) with a series of mono-, di- and tri-halophenols. A detailed experimental study shows that the dehalogenation reactions of the halophenols by such iron(IV)-oxo intermediates proceed via an initial hydrogen atom abstraction from the phenolic O-H group. Furthermore, based on the size and nucleophilicity of the halophenol, an intermediate substrate-bound species forms that is a phenolate adduct to the ferric species, which thereafter leads to the formation of the corresponding products.

Abstract
The nonheme iron(IV)-oxido complex trans-N3-[(L1)FeIVO(Cl)]+, where L1 is a derivative of the tetradentate bispidine 2,4-di(pyridine-2-yl)-3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-1-one, has an S = 1 electronic ground state and is the most reactive nonheme iron model system known so far, of a similar order of reactivity as nonheme iron enzymes (C-H abstraction of cyclohexane, -90 °C (propionitrile), t1/2 = 3.5 s). The reaction with cyclohexane selectively leads to chlorocyclohexane, but "cage escape" at the [(L1)FeIII(OH)(Cl)]+/cyclohexyl radical intermediate lowers the productivity. Ligand field theory is used herein to analyze the d-d transitions of [(L1)FeIVO(X)]n+ (X = Cl-, Br-, MeCN) in comparison with the thoroughly characterized ferryl complex of tetramethylcyclam (TMC = L2; [(L2)FeIVO(MeCN)]2+). The ligand field parameters and d-d transition energies are shown to provide important information on the triplet-quintet gap and its correlation with oxidation reactivity.

Abstract
Oxidation of the iron(II) precursor [(L1)FeIICl2], where L1 is a tetradentate bispidine, with soluble iodosylbenzene (sPhIO) leads to the extremely reactive ferryl oxidant [(L1)(Cl)FeIV=O]+ with a cis disposition of the chlorido and oxido coligands, as observed in non‐heme halogenase enzymes. Experimental data indicate that, with cyclohexane as substrate, there is selective formation of chlorocyclohexane, the halogenation being initiated by C−H abstraction and the result of a rebound of the ensuing radical to an iron‐bound Cl−. The time‐resolved formation of the halogenation product indicates that this primarily results from sPhIO oxidation of an initially formed oxido‐bridged diiron(III) resting state. The high yield of up to >70 % (stoichiometric reaction) as well as the differing reactivities of free Fe2+ and Fe3+ in comparison with [(L1)FeIICl2] indicate a high complex stability of the bispidine‐iron complexes. DFT analysis shows that, due to a large driving force and small triplet‐quintet gap, [(L1)(Cl)FeIV=O]+ is the most reactive small‐molecule halogenase model, that the FeIII/radical rebound intermediate has a relatively long lifetime (as supported by experimentally observed cage escape), and that this intermediate has, as observed experimentally, a lower energy barrier to the halogenation than the hydroxylation product; this is shown to primarily be due to steric effects.

Abstract
The functionalization of C-H bonds is one of the most challenging transformations in synthetic chemistry. In biology, these processes are well-known and are achieved with a variety of metalloenzymes, many of which contain a single metal center within their active sites. The most well studied are those with Fe centers, and the emerging experimental data show that high-valent iron oxido species are the intermediates responsible for cleaving the C-H bond. This Forum Article describes the state of this field with an emphasis on nonheme Fe enzymes and current experimental results that provide insights into the properties that make these species capable of C-H bond cleavage. These parameters are also briefly considered in regard to manganese oxido complexes and Cu-containing metalloenzymes. Synthetic iron oxido complexes are discussed to highlight their utility as spectroscopic and mechanistic probes and reagents for C-H bond functionalization. Avenues for future research are also examined.

Abstract
Late-transition-metal oxo and imide complexes play an important role in the catalytic functionalization and activation of small molecules. An emerging theme in this area over the past few decades has been the use of lower coordination numbers, and pseudotetrahedral geometries in particular, to stabilize what would otherwise be highly reactive species. However, the bonding structure in d6 oxo and imide complexes in this geometry is ambiguous. These species are typically depicted with a triple bond; however, recent experimental evidence suggests significant empirical differences between these complexes and other triply bonded complexes with lower d counts. Here we use a suite of computational orbital localization methods and electron density analyses to probe the bonding structure of isoelectronic d6 CoIII oxo and imide complexes. These analyses suggest that a triple-bond description is inaccurate because of a dramatically weakened σ interaction. While the exact bond order in these cases is necessarily dependent on the model used, several metrics suggest that the strength of the metal-O/N bond is most similar to that of other formally doubly bonded complexes.

Abstract
The nonheme iron(IV)-oxido complex trans-N3-[(L1 )FeIV =O(Cl)]+ , where L1 is a derivative of the tetradentate bispidine 2,4-di(pyridine-2-yl)-3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-1-one, is known to have an S=1 electronic ground state and to be an extremely reactive oxidant for oxygen atom transfer (OAT) and hydrogen atom abstraction (HAA) processes. Here we show that, in spite of this ferryl oxidant having the "wrong" spin ground state, it is the most reactive nonheme iron model system known so far and of a similar order of reactivity as nonheme iron enzymes (C-H abstraction of cyclohexane, -90 °C (propionitrile), t1/2 =3.5 sec). Discussed are spectroscopic and kinetic data, supported by a DFT-based theoretical analysis, which indicate that substrate oxidation is significantly faster than self-decay processes due to an intramolecular demethylation pathway and formation of an oxido-bridged diiron(III) intermediate. It is also shown that the iron(III)-chlorido-hydroxido/cyclohexyl radical intermediate, resulting from C-H abstraction, selectively produces chlorocyclohexane in a rebound process. However, the life-time of the intermediate is so long that other reaction channels (known as cage escape) become important, and much of the C-H abstraction therefore is unproductive. In bulk reactions at ambient temperature and at longer time scales, there is formation of significant amounts of oxidation product - selectively of chlorocyclohexane - and it is shown that this originates from oxidation of the oxido-bridged diiron(III) resting state.

Abstract
S=2 oxoiron(IV) species act as reactive intermediates in the catalytic cycle of nonheme iron oxygenases. The few available synthetic S=2 FeIV =O complexes known to date are often limited to trigonal bipyramidal and very rarely to octahedral geometries. Herein we describe the generation and characterization of an S=2 pseudotetrahedral FeIV =O complex 2 supported by the sterically demanding 1,4,7-tri-tert-butyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane ligand. Complex 2 is a very potent oxidant in hydrogen atom abstraction (HAA) reactions with large non-classical deuterium kinetic isotope effects, suggesting hydrogen tunneling contributions. For sterically encumbered substrates, direct HAA is impeded and an alternative oxidative asynchronous proton-coupled electron transfer mechanism prevails, which is unique within the nonheme oxoiron community. The high reactivity and the similar spectroscopic parameters make 2 one of the best electronic and functional models for a biological oxoiron(IV) intermediate of taurine dioxygenase (TauD-J).

Abstract
![]()
The complex α-[Fe(mcp)(OTf)2] (mcp = N,N′-dimethyl-N,N′-bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine
and OTf
= trifluoromethanesulfonate anion) was reported in 2011 by some of
us as an active water oxidation (WO) catalyst in the presence of sacrificial
oxidants. However, because chemical oxidants are likely to take part
in the reaction mechanism, mechanistic electrochemical studies are
critical in establishing to what extent previous studies with sacrificial
reagents have actually been meaningful. In this study, the complex
α-[Fe(mcp)(OTf)2] and its analogues were investigated
electrochemically under both acidic and neutral conditions. All the
systems under investigation proved to be electrochemically active
toward the WO reaction, with no major differences in activity despite
the structural changes. Our findings show that WO-catalyzed by mcp–iron
complexes proceeds via homogeneous species, whereas the analogous
manganese complex forms a heterogeneous deposit on the electrode surface.
Mechanistic studies show that the reaction proceeds with a different
rate-determining step (rds) than what was previously proposed in the
presence of chemical oxidants. Moreover, the different kinetic isotope
effect (KIE) values obtained electrochemically at pH 7 (KIE ∼
10) and at pH 1 (KIE = 1) show that the reaction conditions have a
remarkable effect on the rds and on the mechanism. We suggest a proton-coupled
electron transfer (PCET) as the rds under neutral conditions, whereas
at pH 1 the rds is most likely an electron transfer (ET).

Abstract
We present the synthesis and coordination chemistry of a bulky, tripodal N,N,O ligand, ImPh2NNOtBu (L), designed to model the 2‐His‐1‐carboxylate facial triad (2H1C) by means of two imidazole groups and an anionic 2,4‐di‐tert‐butyl‐subtituted phenolate. Reacting K‐L with MCl2 (M = Fe, Zn) affords the isostructural, tetrahedral non‐heme complexes [Fe(L)(Cl)] (1) and [Zn(L)(Cl)] (2) in high yield. The tridentate N,N,O ligand coordination observed in their X‐ray crystal structures remains intact and well‐defined in MeCN and CH2Cl2 solution. Reacting 2 with NaSPh affords a tetrahedral zinc thiolate complex, [Zn(L)(SPh)] (4), that is relevant to isopenicillin N synthase (IPNS) biomimicry. Cyclic voltammetry studies demonstrate the ligand's redox non‐innocence, where phenolate oxidation is the first electrochemical response observed in K‐L, 2 and 4. However, the first electrochemical oxidation in 1 is iron‐centred, the assignment of which is supported by DFT calculations. Overall, ImPh2NNOtBu provides access to well‐defined mononuclear, monoligated, N,N,O‐bound metal complexes, enabling more accurate structural modelling of the 2H1C to be achieved.

Abstract
Transition metal oxo species are key intermediates for the activation of strong C-H bonds. As such, there has been interest in understanding which structural or electronic parameters of metal oxo complexes determine their reactivity. Factors such as ground state thermodynamics, spin state, steric environment, oxygen radical character, and asynchronicity have all been cited as key contributors, yet there is no consensus on when each of these parameters is significant or the relative magnitude of their effects. Herein, we present a thorough statistical analysis of parameters that have been proposed to influence transition metal oxo mediated C-H activation. We used density functional theory (DFT) to compute parameters for transition metal oxo complexes and analyzed their ability to explain and predict an extensive data set of experimentally determined reaction barriers. We found that, in general, only thermodynamic parameters play a statistically significant role. Notably, however, there are independent and significant contributions from the oxidation potential and basicity of the oxo complexes which suggest a more complicated thermodynamic picture than what has been shown previously.

Abstract
The understanding of reactive processes involving organic substrates is crucial to chemical knowledge and requires multidisciplinary efforts for its advancement. Herein, we apply a combined multivariate, statistical and theoretical analysis of coupled time-resolved X-ray absorption (XAS)/UV-Vis data to obtain detailed mechanistic information for on the C-H bond activation of 9,10-dihydroanthracene (DHA) and diphenylmethane (Ph2CH2) by the nonheme FeIV-oxo complex [N4Py·FeIV(O)]2+ (N4Py = N,N-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)-N-bis(2-pyridyl)methylamine) in CH3CN at room temperature. Within this approach, we determine the number of key chemical species present in the reaction mixtures and derive spectral and concentration profiles for the reaction intermediates. From the quantitative analysis of the XAS spectra the transient intermediate species are structurally determined. As a result, it is suggested that, while DHA is oxidized by [N4Py·FeIV(O)]2+ with a hydrogen atom transfer-electron transfer (HAT-ET) mechanism, Ph2CH2 is oxidized by the nonheme iron-oxo complex through a HAT-radical dissociation pathway. In the latter process, we prove that the intermediate FeIII complex [N4Py·FeIII(OH)]2+ is not able to oxidize the diphenylmethyl radical and we provide its structural characterization in solution. The employed combined experimental and theoretical strategy is promising for the spectroscopic characterization of transient intermediates as well as for the mechanistic investigation of redox chemical transformations on the second to millisecond time scales.

Abstract
Low temperature stopped-flow techniques were used to investigate the reaction of three different iron(ii) complexes with nitrogen monoxide. The kinetic studies allowed calculation of the activation parameters from the corresponding Eyring plots for all three systems. The reaction of iron(ii) chloride with NO leading to the formation of MNIC (mononitrosyl-iron-complex) and DNIC (dinitrosyl-iron-complex) led to activation parameters of ΔH‡ = 55.4 ± 0.4 kJ mol-1 and ΔS‡ = 13 ± 2 J K-1 mol-1 for MNIC and ΔH‡ = 32 ± 6 kJ mol-1 and ΔS‡ = -193 ± 21 J K-1 mol-1 for DNIC. Formation of MNIC turned out to be much faster in comparison with DNIC. In contrast, activation parameters for the formation of monoculear [Fe(bztpen)(NO)](OTf)2 (bztpen = N-benzyl-N,N',N'-tris(2-pyridylmethyl)-ethylenediamine) ΔH‡ = 17.8 ± 0.8 kJ mol-1 and ΔS‡ = -181 ± 3 J K-1 mol-1 supported an associative mechanism. Interestingly, [Fe(bztpen)(CH3CN)](OTf)2 does not react with dioxygen at all. Furthermore, activation parameters of ΔH‡ = 37.7 ± 0.7 kJ mol-1 and ΔS‡ = -66 ± 3 J K-1 mol-1 were obtained for the reaction of NO with the dinuclear iron(ii) H-HPTB complex (H-HPTB = N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(2-benzimidazolylmethyl)-2-hydroxy-1,3-diaminopropane), [Fe2(H-HPTB)(Cl)3]. The kinetic data allowed postulation of the mechanisms for all of these reactions.

Abstract
High-valent metal-oxo species with multiply-bonded M-O groups have been proposed as key intermediates in many biological and abiological catalytic oxidation reactions. These intermediates are implicated as active oxidants in alkane hydroxylation, olefin epoxidation and other oxidation reactions. For example, [FeivO(porphyrinato•-)]+ cofactors bearing π-radical porphyrinato•- ligands oxidize organic substrates in cytochrome P450 enzymes, which are common to many life forms. Likewise, high-valent Mn-oxo species are active for H2O oxidation in photosystem II. The chemistry of these native reactive species has inspired chemists to prepare highly oxidized transition-metal complexes as functional mimics. Although many synthetic Fe-O and Mn-O complexes now exist, the analogous oxo complexes of the late transition metals (groups 9-11) are rare. Indeed, late-transition-metal-oxo complexes of tetragonal (fourfold) symmetry should be electronically unstable, a rule commonly referred to as the 'oxo wall'. A few late metal-oxos have been prepared by targeting other symmetries or unusual spin states. These complexes have been studied using spectroscopic and theoretical methods. This Review describes mononuclear non-haem Fe-O and Mn-O species, the nature of the oxo wall and recent advances in the preparation of oxo complexes of Co, Ni and Cu beyond the oxo wall.

Abstract
High-valent nonheme FeIV-oxido species are key intermediates in biological oxidation, and their properties are proposed to be influenced by the unique microenvironments present in protein active sites. Microenvironments are regulated by noncovalent interactions, such as hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) and electrostatic interactions; however, there is little quantitative information about how these interactions affect crucial properties of high valent metal-oxido complexes. To address this knowledge gap, we introduced a series of FeIV-oxido complexes that have the same S = 2 spin ground state as those found in nature and then systematically probed the effects of noncovalent interactions on their electronic, structural, and vibrational properties. The key design feature that provides access to these complexes is the new tripodal ligand [poat]3-, which contains phosphinic amido groups. An important structural aspect of [FeIVpoat(O)]- is the inclusion of an auxiliary site capable of binding a Lewis acid (LAII); we used this unique feature to further modulate the electrostatic environment around the Fe-oxido unit. Experimentally, studies confirmed that H-bonds and LAII s can interact directly with the oxido ligand in FeIV-oxido complexes, which weakens the Fe═O bond and has an impact on the electronic structure. We found that relatively large vibrational changes in the Fe-oxido unit correlate with small structural changes that could be difficult to measure, especially within a protein active site. Our work demonstrates the important role of noncovalent interactions on the properties of metal complexes, and that these interactions need to be considered when developing effective oxidants.

Abstract
Herein, iron-terpyridine complexes with the iron centers at different initial valence states were utilized as homogeneous catalysts for the degradation of phenol in water. The iron(iii)-terpyridine complex induced the formation of more high-valent iron-oxo centers and hydroxyl radicals than the iron(ii)-terpyridine complex, leading to a higher catalytic activity.

Abstract
In soluble methane monooxygenase enzymes (sMMO), dioxygen (O2) is activated at a diiron(II) center to form an oxodiiron(IV) intermediate Q that performs the challenging oxidation of methane to methanol. An analogous mechanism of O2 activation at mono- or dinuclear iron centers is rare in the synthetic chemistry. Herein, we report a mononuclear non-heme iron(II)-cyclam complex, 1-trans, that activates O2 to form the corresponding iron(IV)-oxo complex, 2-trans, via a mechanism reminiscent of the O2 activation process in sMMO. The conversion of 1-trans to 2-trans proceeds via the intermediate formation of an iron(III)-superoxide species 3, which could be trapped and spectroscopically characterized at -50 °C. Surprisingly, 3 is a stronger oxygen atom transfer (OAT) agent than 2-trans; 3 performs OAT to 1-trans or PPh3 to yield 2-trans quantitatively. Furthermore, 2-trans oxidizes the aromatic C-H bonds of 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol, which, together with the strong OAT ability of 3, represents new domains of oxoiron(IV) and superoxoiron(III) reactivities.

Abstract
Novel functions emerge from novel structures. To develop efficient catalytic systems for challenging chemical transformations, chemists often seek inspirations from enzymatic catalysis. A large number of iron complexes supported by nitrogen-rich multidentate ligands have thus been developed to mimic oxo-transfer reactivity of dioxygen-activating metalloenzymes. Such efforts have significantly advanced our understanding of the reaction mechanisms by trapping key intermediates and elucidating their geometric and electronic properties. Critical to the success of this biomimetic approach is the design and synthesis of elaborate ligand systems to balance the thermodynamic stability, structural adaptability, and chemical reactivity. In this Concept article, representative design strategies for biomimetic atom-transfer chemistry are discussed from the perspectives of "ligand builders". Emphasis is placed on how the primary coordination sphere is constructed, and how it can be elaborated further by rational design for desired functions.

Abstract
High valent iron species are very reactive molecules involved in oxidation reactions of relevance to biology and chemical synthesis. Herein we describe iron(iv)-tosylimido complexes [FeIV(NTs)(MePy2tacn)](OTf)2 (1(IV)[double bond, length as m-dash]NTs) and [FeIV(NTs)(Me2(CHPy2)tacn)](OTf)2 (2(IV)[double bond, length as m-dash]NTs), (MePy2tacn = N-methyl-N,N-bis(2-picolyl)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane, and Me2(CHPy2)tacn = 1-(di(2-pyridyl)methyl)-4,7-dimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane, Ts = Tosyl). 1(IV)[double bond, length as m-dash]NTs and 2(IV)[double bond, length as m-dash]NTs are rare examples of octahedral iron(iv)-imido complexes and are isoelectronic analogues of the recently described iron(iv)-oxo complexes [FeIV(O)(L)]2+ (L = MePy2tacn and Me2(CHPy2)tacn, respectively). 1(IV)[double bond, length as m-dash]NTs and 2(IV)[double bond, length as m-dash]NTs are metastable and have been spectroscopically characterized by HR-MS, UV-vis, 1H-NMR, resonance Raman, Mössbauer, and X-ray absorption (XAS) spectroscopy as well as by DFT computational methods. Ferric complexes [FeIII(HNTs)(L)]2+, 1(III)-NHTs (L = MePy2tacn) and 2(III)-NHTs (L = Me2(CHPy2)tacn) have been isolated after the decay of 1(IV)[double bond, length as m-dash]NTs and 2(IV)[double bond, length as m-dash]NTs in solution, spectroscopically characterized, and the molecular structure of [FeIII(HNTs)(MePy2tacn)](SbF6)2 determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Reaction of 1(IV)[double bond, length as m-dash]NTs and 2(IV)[double bond, length as m-dash]NTs with different p-substituted thioanisoles results in the transfer of the tosylimido moiety to the sulphur atom producing sulfilimine products. In these reactions, 1(IV)[double bond, length as m-dash]NTs and 2(IV)[double bond, length as m-dash]NTs behave as single electron oxidants and Hammett analyses of reaction rates evidence that tosylimido transfer is more sensitive than oxo transfer to charge effects. In addition, reaction of 1(IV)[double bond, length as m-dash]NTs and 2(IV)[double bond, length as m-dash]NTs with hydrocarbons containing weak C-H bonds results in the formation of 1(III)-NHTs and 2(III)-NHTs respectively, along with the oxidized substrate. Kinetic analyses indicate that reactions proceed via a mechanistically unusual HAT reaction, where an association complex precedes hydrogen abstraction.

Abstract
Formation of the O-O bond is considered the critical step in oxidative water cleavage to produce dioxygen. High-valent metal complexes with terminal oxo (oxido) ligands are commonly regarded as instrumental for oxygen evolution, but direct experimental evidence is lacking. Herein, we describe the formation of the O-O bond in solution, from non-heme, N5 -coordinate oxoiron(IV) species. Oxygen evolution from oxoiron(IV) is instantaneous once meta-chloroperbenzoic acid is administered in excess. Oxygen-isotope labeling reveals two sources of dioxygen, pointing to mechanistic branching between HAT (hydrogen atom transfer)-initiated free-radical pathways of the peroxides, which are typical of catalase-like reactivity, and iron-borne O-O coupling, which is unprecedented for non-heme/peroxide systems. Interpretation in terms of [FeIV (O)] and [FeV (O)] being the resting and active principles of the O-O coupling, respectively, concurs with fundamental mechanistic ideas of (electro-) chemical O-O coupling in water oxidation catalysis (WOC), indicating that central mechanistic motifs of WOC can be mimicked in a catalase/peroxidase setting.

Abstract
High-valent iron-oxo complexes are key intermediates in C-H functionalization reactions. Herein, we report the generation of a (TAML)Fe-oxo species (TAML = tetraamido macrocyclic ligand) via electrochemical proton-coupled oxidation of the corresponding (TAML)FeIII-OH2 complex. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and spectroelectrochemical studies are used to elucidate the relevant (TAML)Fe redox processes and determine the predominant (TAML)Fe species present in solution during bulk electrolysis. Evidence for iron(iv) and iron(v) species is presented, and these species are used in the electrochemical oxygenation of benzylic C-H bonds and dehydrogenation of alcohols to ketones.

Abstract
The new di- and tetranuclear Fe(III) μ-oxido complexes [Fe4(μ-O)4(PTEBIA)4](CF3SO3)4(CH3CN)2] (1a), [Fe2(μ-O)Cl2(PTEBIA)2](CF3SO3)2 (1b), and [Fe2(μ-O)(HCOO)2(PTEBIA)2](ClO4)2 (MeOH) (2) were prepared from the sulfur-containing ligand (2-((2,4-dimethylphenyl)thio)-N,N-bis ((1-methyl-benzimidazol-2-yl)methyl)ethanamine (PTEBIA). The tetrairon complex 1a features four μ-oxido bridges, while in dinuclear 1b, the sulfur moiety of the ligand occupies one of the six coordination sites of each Fe(III) ion with a long Fe-S distance of 2.814(6) Å. In 2, two Fe(III) centers are bridged by one oxido and two formate units, the latter likely formed by methanol oxidation. Complexes 1a and 1b show broad sulfur-to-iron charge transfer bands around 400–430 nm at room temperature, consistent with mononuclear structures featuring Fe-S interactions. In contrast, acetonitrile solutions of 2 display a sulfur-to-iron charge transfer band only at low temperature (228 K) upon addition of H2O2/CH3COOH, with an absorption maximum at 410 nm. Homogeneous oxidative catalytic activity was observed for 1a and 1b using H2O2 as oxidant, but with low product selectivity. High valent iron-oxo intermediates could not be detected by UV-vis spectroscopy or ESI mass spectrometry. Rather, evidence suggest preferential ligand oxidation, in line with the relatively low selectivity and catalytic activity observed in the reactions.

Abstract
Iron is an essential element in nonheme enzymes that plays a crucial role in many vital oxidative transformations and metabolic reactions in the human body. Many of those reactions are regio- and stereospecific and it is believed that the selectivity is guided by second-coordination sphere effects in the protein. Here, results are shown of a few engineered biomimetic ligand frameworks based on the N4Py (N,N-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)-N-bis(2-pyridyl)methylamine) scaffold and the second-coordination sphere effects are studied. For the first time, selective substitutions in the ligand framework have been shown to tune the catalytic properties of the iron(IV)-oxo complexes by regulating the steric and electronic factors. In particular, a better positioning of the oxidant and substrate in the rate-determining transition state lowers the reaction barriers. Therefore, an optimum balance between steric and electronic factors mediates the ideal positioning of oxidant and substrate in the rate-determining transition state that affects the reactivity of high-valent reaction intermediates.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2019; 58:1995-1999.

Abstract
The syn and anti isomers of [FeIV (O)(TMC)]2+ (TMC=tetramethylcyclam) represent the first isolated pair of synthetic non-heme oxoiron(IV) complexes with identical ligand topology, differing only in the position of the oxo unit bound to the iron center. Both isomers have previously been characterized. Reported here is that the syn isomer [FeIV (Osyn )(TMC)(NCMe)]2+ (2) converts into its anti form [FeIV (Oanti )(TMC)(NCMe)]2+ (1) in MeCN, an isomerization facilitated by water and monitored most readily by 1 H NMR and Raman spectroscopy. Indeed, when H218 O is introduced to 2, the nascent 1 becomes 18 O-labeled. These results provide compelling evidence for a mechanism involving direct binding of a water molecule trans to the oxo atom in 2 with subsequent oxo-hydroxo tautomerism for its incorporation as the oxo atom of 1. The nonplanar nature of the TMC supporting ligand makes this isomerization an irreversible transformation, unlike for their planar heme counterparts.

Abstract
The nature of the oxidizing species in water oxidation reactions with chemical oxidants catalyzed by α-[Fe(OTf)2(mcp)] (1α; mcp = N, N'-dimethyl- N, N'-bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)cyclohexane-1,2-diamine, OTf = trifluoromethanesulfonate anion) and β-[Fe(OTf)2(mcp)] (1β) has been investigated. Mössbauer spectroscopy provides definitive evidence that 1α and 1β generate oxoiron(IV) species as the resting state. Decomposition paths of the catalysts have been investigated by identifying and quantifying ligand fragments that form upon degradation. This analysis correlates the water oxidation activity of 1α and 1β with stability against oxidative damage of the ligand via aliphatic C-H oxidation. The site of degradation and the relative stability against oxidative degradation are shown to be dependent on the topology of the catalyst. Furthermore, the mechanisms of catalyst degradation have been rationalized by computational analyses, which also explain why the topology of the catalyst enforces different oxidation-sensitive sites. This information has served in creating catalysts where sensitive C-H bonds have been replaced by C-D bonds. The deuterated analogues D4-α-[Fe(OTf)2(mcp)] (D4-1α), D4-β-[Fe(OTf)2(mcp)] (D4-1β), and D6-β-[Fe(OTf)2(mcp)] (D6-1β) were prepared, and their catalytic activity has been studied. D4-1α proves to be an extraordinarily active and efficient catalyst (up to 91% of O2 yield); it exhibits initial reaction rates identical with those of its protio analogue, but it is substantially more robust toward oxidative degradation and yields more than 3400 TON ( n(O2)/ n(Fe)). Altogether this evidences that the water oxidation catalytic activity is performed by a well-defined coordination complex and not by iron oxides formed after oxidative degradation of the ligands.
