Mechanistic Divergence in Sulfur-Ligated Iron(III)-Alkylperoxo Reactivity: Aldehyde Oxidation Prevails over Deformylation
{{output}}
Metalloenzymes activate molecular oxygen within their catalytic cycles to generate a reactive species capable of substrate transformation. In many iron-containing enzymes, it is a high-valent iron(IV)-oxo complex that is synthesized from an iron(III)-alkylpero... ...
