Observation of a ferric hydroperoxide complex during the non-heme iron catalysed oxidation of alkenes and alkanes by O2

Abstract

A non-heme iron complex catalyses the oxidation of allylic, benzylic, and aliphatic C–H bonds by O2. During this reactivity, a ferric hydroperoxide species is observed. The kinetic analysis of this complex's formation may suggest a ferric superoxo species as the initial metal-based oxidant.
