Axial Ligand Effects on Electronic Structures and H‑Atom Abstraction by Oxidoiron(IV) Complexes Featuring Triplet-Only Reactivity
Oxidoiron(IV) species are crucial intermediates for the functionalization of C–H bonds by biological oxidases and oxygenases, and understanding the relations between ligation, electronic structure, and reactivity of the FeIVO unit is key to the rational design of bioinspired catalysts. Here, a series of FeIVO complex...
