Resonance Raman evidence for the interconversion between an [Fe-III-eta(1)-OOH] (2+) and [Fe-III-eta(2)-O-2](+) species and mechanistic implications thereof
Ryn. Ho et al., Resonance Raman evidence for the interconversion between an [Fe-III-eta(1)-OOH] (2+) and [Fe-III-eta(2)-O-2](+) species and mechanistic implications thereof, CHEM COMMUN, (21), 1999, pp. 2161-2162
The deprotonation of [Fe-III(N4Py)(eta(1)-OOH)](2+) 1 gives [Fe-III(N4Py)(e
ta(2)-OO)](+) 2, as unequivocally demonstrated by resonance Raman spectrosc
opy, and leads to the loss of alkane hydroxylation activity by 1.
