Abstract

High-valent iron species are proposed as active intermediates in the cycles of many important biocatalysts. Iron(IV) is the most readily accessible high oxidation state, although iron(V) has also been proposed as a key intermediate in some non-heme dioxygenases. Structural and spectroscopic precedent for these intermediates has often come from studies of well-defined model complexes. For example, the iron(IV) oxo moiety, which has long been known to be at the catalytic centers of oxygenases, was first crystallographically characterized in an octahedral iron complex of an N-methylated 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (cyclam) macrocycle .Similar cyclam derivatives have also allowed for the preparation and detailed spectroscopic characterization of octahedral Fe(V) and Fe(VI) nitrido complexes, but the structural characterization and reactivity of these fleeting intermediates, which are usually studied at low temperatures in frozen matrices, remains elusive.
