Abstract
The reactivity of FeIII -alkylperoxido complexes has remained a riddle to inorganic chemists owing to their thermal instability and impotency towards organic substrates. These iron-oxygen adducts have been known as sluggish oxidants towards oxidative electrophilic and nucleophilic reactions. Herein, we report the synthesis and spectroscopic characterization of a relatively stable mononuclear high-spin FeIII -alkylperoxido complex supported by an engineered bispidine framework. Against the notion, this FeIII -alkylperoxido complex serves as a rare example of versatile reactivity in both electrophilic and nucleophilic reactions. Detailed mechanistic studies and computational calculations reveal a novel reaction mechanism, where a putative superoxido intermediate orchestrates the amphoteric property of the oxidant. The design of the backbone is pivotal to convey stability and reactivity to alkylperoxido and superoxido intermediates. Contrary to the well-known O-O bond cleavage that generates an FeIV -oxido species, the FeIII -alkylperoxido complex reported here undergoes O-C bond scission to generate a superoxido moiety that is responsible for the amphiphilic reactivity.

Abstract
Improving the reactivity of Fe(III) for activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) at circumneutral pH is critical to propel the iron-activated PMS processes toward practical wastewater treatment but is yet challenging. Here we employed the complexes of Fe(III) with the biodegradable picolinic acid (PICA) to activate PMS for degradation of selected chlorinated phenols, antibiotics, pharmaceuticals, herbicides, and industrial compounds at pH 4.0-6.0. The FeIII-PICA complexes greatly outperformed the ligand-free Fe(III) and other Fe(III) complexes of common aminopolycarboxylate ligands. In the main activation pathway, the key intermediate is a peroxymonosulfate complex, tentatively identified as PICA-FeIII-OOSO3-, which undergoes O-O homolysis or reacts with FeIII-PICA and PMS to yield FeIV=O and SO4•- without the involvement of commonly invoked Fe(II). PICA-FeIII-OOSO3- can also react directly with certain compounds (chlorophenols and sulfamethoxazole). The relative contributions of PICA-FeIII-OOSO3-, FeIV=O, and SO4•- depend on the structure of target compounds. This work sets an eligible example to enhance the reactivity of Fe(III) toward PMS activation by ligands and sheds light on the previously unrecognized role of the metal-PMS complexes in directing the catalytic cycle and decontamination as well.

Abstract
Herein, we examine the electronic and geometric structural properties of O2-derived aliphatic thiolate-ligated Fe-peroxo, Fe-hydroxo, and Fe(IV) oxo compounds. The latter cleaves strong C-H bonds (96 kcal mol-1) on par with the valine C-H bond cleaved by isopencillin N synthase (IPNS). Stopped-flow kinetics studies indicate that the barrier to O2 binding to [FeII(SMe2N4(tren))]+ (3) is extremely low (Ea = 36(2) kJ mol-1), as theoretically predicted for IPNS. Dioxygen binding to 3 is shown to be reversible, and a superoxo intermediate, [FeIII(SMe2N4(tren))(O2)]+ (6), forms in the first 25 ms of the reaction at -40 °C prior to the rate-determining (Ea = 46(2) kJ mol-1) formation of peroxo-bridged [(SMe2N4(tren))Fe(III)]2(μ-O2)2+ (7). A log(kobs) vs log([Fe]) plot for the formation of 7 is consistent with the second-order dependence on iron, and H2O2 assays are consistent with a 2:1 ratio of Fe/H2O2. Peroxo 7 is shown to convert to ferric-hydroxo [FeIII(SMe2N(tren))(OH)]+ (9, g⊥ = 2.24, g∥ = 1.96), the identity of which was determined via its independent synthesis. Rates of the conversion 7 → 9 are shown to be dependent on the X-H bond strength of the H-atom donor, with a kH/kD = 4 when CD3OD is used in place of CH3OH as a solvent. A crystallographically characterized cis thiolate-ligated high-valent iron oxo, [FeIV(O)(SMe2N4(tren))]+ (11), is shown to form en route to hydroxo 9. Electronic structure calculations were shown to be consistent with 11 being an S = 1 Fe(IV)═O with an unusually high νFe-O stretching frequency at 918 cm-1 in line with the extremely short Fe-O bond (1.603(7) Å).

Abstract
The Fenton reaction is limited by a narrow acidic pH range, the slow reduction of Fe(III), and susceptibility of the nonselective hydroxyl radical (HO•) to scavenging by water constituents. Here, we employed the biodegradable chelating agent picolinic acid (PICA) to address these concerns. Compared to the classical Fenton reaction at pH 3.0, PICA greatly accelerated the degradation of atrazine, sulfamethazine, and various substituted phenols at pH 5.0 in a reaction with autocatalytic characteristics. Although HO• served as the principal oxidant, a high-spin, end-on hydroperoxo intermediate, tentatively identified as PICA-FeIII-OOH, also exhibited reactivity toward several test compounds. Chloride release from the oxidation of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol and the positive slope of the Hammett correlation for a series of halogenated phenols were consistent with PICA-FeIII-OOH reacting as a nucleophilic oxidant. Compared to HO•, PICA-FeIII-OOH is less sensitive to potential scavengers in environmental water samples. Kinetic analysis reveals that PICA facilitates Fe(III)/Fe(II) transformation by accelerating Fe(III) reduction by H2O2. Autocatalysis is ascribed to the buildup of Fe(II) from the reduction of Fe(III) by H2O2 as well as PICA oxidation products. PICA assistance in the Fenton reaction may be beneficial to wastewater treatment because it favors iron cycling, extends the pH range, and balances oxidation universality with selectivity.

Abstract
Superoxide (O2•-) is a toxic radical, generated via the adventitious reduction of dioxygen (O2), which has been implicated in a number of human disease states. Nonheme iron enzymes, superoxide reductase (SOR) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), detoxify O2•- via reduction to afford H2O2 and disproportionation to afford O2 and H2O2, respectively. The former contains a thiolate in the coordination sphere, which has been proposed to prevent O2•- oxidation to O2. The work described herein shows that, in contrast to this, oxidized thiolate-ligated [FeIII(SMe2N4(tren)(THF)]2+ (1ox-THF) is capable of oxidizing O2•- to O2. Coordinating anions, Cl- and OAc-, are shown to inhibit dioxygen evolution, implicating an inner-sphere mechanism. Previously we showed that the reduced thiolate-ligated [FeII(SMe2N4(tren))]+ (1) is capable of reducing O2•- via a proton-dependent inner-sphere mechanism involving a transient Fe(III)-OOH intermediate. A transient ferric-superoxo intermediate, [FeIII(SMe2N4(tren))(O2)]+ (3), is detected by electronic absorption spectroscopy at -130 °C in the reaction between 1ox-THF and KO2 and shown to evolve O2 upon slight warming to -115 °C. The DFT calculated O-O (1.306 Å) and Fe-O (1.943 Å) bond lengths of 3 are typical of ferric-superoxo complexes, and the time-dependent DFT calculated electronic absorption spectrum of 3 reproduces the experimental spectrum. The electronic structure of 3 is shown to consist of two antiferromagnetically coupled (Jcalc = -180 cm-1) unpaired electrons, one in a superoxo π*(O-O) orbital and the other in an antibonding π*(Fe(dyz)-S(py)) orbital.

Abstract
The reactivity of a mononuclear high-spin iron(III)-alkylperoxo intermediate [FeIII (t-BuLUrea )(OOCm)(OH2 )]2+ (2), generated from [FeII (t-BuLUrea )(H2 O)(OTf)](OTf) (1) [t-BuLUrea =1,1'-(((pyridin-2-ylmethyl)azanediyl)bis(ethane-2,1-diyl))bis(3-(tert-butyl)urea), OTf=trifluoromethanesulfonate] with cumyl hydroperoxide (CmOOH), toward the C-H and C=C bonds of hydrocarbons is reported. 2 oxygenates the strong C-H bonds of aliphatic substrates with high chemo- and stereoselectivity in the presence of 2,6-lutidine. While 2 itself is a sluggish oxidant, 2,6-lutidine assists the heterolytic O-O bond cleavage of the metal-bound alkylperoxo, giving rise to a reactive metal-based oxidant. The roles of the urea groups on the supporting ligand, and of the base, in directing the selective and catalytic oxygenation of hydrocarbon substrates by 2 are discussed.

Abstract
One-electron reduction of mononuclear nonheme iron(III) hydroperoxo (Fe(III)-OOH) and iron(III) alkylperoxo (Fe(III)-OOR) complexes by ferrocene (Fc) derivatives resulted in the formation of the corresponding iron(IV) oxo complexes. The conversion rates were dependent on the concentration and oxidation potentials of the electron donors, thus indicating that the reduction of the iron(III) (hydro/alkyl)peroxo complexes to their one-electron reduced iron(II) (hydro/alkyl)peroxo species is the rate-determining step, followed by the heterolytic O-O bond cleavage of the putative iron(II) (hydro/alkyl)peroxo species to give the iron(IV) oxo complexes. Product analysis supported the heterolytic O-O bond-cleavage mechanism. The present results provide the first example showing the one-electron reduction of iron(III) (hydro/alkyl)peroxo complexes and the heterolytic O-O bond cleavage of iron(II) (hydro/alkyl)peroxo species to form iron(IV) oxo intermediates which occur in nonheme iron enzymatic and Fenton reactions.

Abstract
A new non-heme iron model complex containing a high-spin iron(II) complexed with N-methylated pyridine-containing macrocycle was synthesized and crystallographically characterized. The complex generates peroxo- and high-valent iron-oxo intermediates in reactions with tert-butylhydroperoxide and isopropyl 2-iodoxybenzoate, respectively, allowing to gain insight into the formation and reactivity of enzyme-like intermediates related to biological oxygen activation. The formation and reactivity of these intermediate species were investigated by the stopped-flow methodology. The mechanism of oxygen transfer to organic substrates involving reaction of oxoiron(IV) intermediate was elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic and kinetic data. Incorporation of a pyridine ring into the macrocycle increased the reactivity of the Fe(IV)=O intermediates in comparison with polyamine tetraaza macrocyclic complexes: ferryl (Fe(IV)=O) species derived from 3 demonstrated electrophilic reactivity in transferring an oxygen atom to substituted triarylphosphines and to olefins (such as cyclooctene). However, iron(III) alkylperoxo intermediate was unreactive with cyclooctene.

An iron(II) complex with a pyridine-containing 14-membered macrocyclic (PyMAC) ligand L1 (L1 = 2,7,12-trimethyl-3,7,11,17-tetra-azabicyclo[11.3.1]heptadeca-1(17),13,15-triene), 1, was prepared and characterized.

Magnetic susceptibility measurements (298 K, Evans method) and Mössbauer spectroscopy (90 K, δ = 0.50(2) mm/s, ΔE(Q) = 0.78(2) mm/s) confirmed that the low-spin configuration of Fe(II) is retained in liquid and frozen acetonitrile solutions. Cyclic voltammetry revealed a reversible one-electron oxidation/reduction of the iron center in 1, with E(1/2)(Fe(III)/Fe(II)) = 0.49 V vs Fc(+)/Fc, a value very similar to the half-wave potentials of related macrocyclic complexes. Complex 1 catalyzed the epoxidation of cyclooctene and other olefins with H(2)O(2). Low-temperature stopped-flow kinetic studies demonstrated the formation of an iron(IV)-oxo intermediate in the reaction of 1 with H(2)O(2) and concomitant partial ligand oxidation. A soluble iodine(V) oxidant, isopropyl 2-iodoxybenzoate, was found to be an excellent oxygen atom donor for generating Fe(IV)-oxo intermediates for additional spectroscopic (UV-vis in CH(3)CN: λ(max) = 705 nm, ε ≈ 240 M(-1) cm(-1); Mössbauer: δ = 0.03(2) mm/s, ΔE(Q) = 2.00(2) mm/s) and kinetic studies. The electrophilic character of the (L1)Fe(IV)═O intermediate was established in rapid (k(2) = 26.5 M(-1) s(-1) for oxidation of PPh(3) at 0 °C), associative (ΔH(‡) = 53 kJ/mol, ΔS(‡) = -25 J/K mol) oxidation of substituted triarylphosphines (electron-donating substituents increased the reaction rate, with a negative value of Hammet's parameter ρ = -1.05). Similar double-mixing kinetic experiments demonstrated somewhat slower (k(2) = 0.17 M(-1) s(-1) at 0 °C), clean, second-order oxidation of cyclooctene into epoxide with preformed (L1)Fe(IV)═O that could be generated from (L1)Fe(II) and H(2)O(2) or isopropyl 2-iodoxybenzoate. Independently determined rates of ferryl(IV) formation and its subsequent reaction with cyclooctene confirmed that the Fe(IV)-oxo species, (L1)Fe(IV)═O, is a kinetically competent intermediate for cyclooctene epoxidation with H(2)O(2) at room temperature. Partial ligand oxidation of (L1)Fe(IV)═O occurs over time in oxidative media, reducing the oxidizing ability of the ferryl species; the macrocyclic nature of the ligand is retained, resulting in ferryl(IV) complexes with Schiff base PyMACs. NH-groups of the PyMAC ligand assist the oxygen atom transfer from ferryl(IV) intermediates to olefin substrates.

Abstract
Copper(II) complexes 1a and 1b, supported by tridentate ligand bpa [bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amine] and tetradentate ligand tpa [tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine], respectively, react with cumene hydroperoxide (CmOOH) in the presence of triethylamine in CH(3)CN to provide the corresponding copper(II) cumylperoxo complexes 2a and 2b, the formation of which has been confirmed by resonance Raman and ESI-MS analyses using (18)O-labeled CmOOH. UV-vis and ESR spectra as well as DFT calculations indicate that 2a has a 5-coordinate square-pyramidal structure involving CmOO(-) at an equatorial position and one solvent molecule at an axial position at low temperature (-90 °C), whereas a 4-coordinate square-planar structure that has lost the axial solvent ligand is predominant at higher temperatures (above 0 °C). Complex 2b, on the other hand, has a typical trigonal bipyramidal structure with the tripodal tetradentate tpa ligand, where the cumylperoxo ligand occupies an axial position. Both cumylperoxo copper(II) complexes 2a and 2b are fairly stable at ambient temperature, but decompose at a higher temperature (60 °C) in CH(3)CN. Detailed product analyses and DFT studies indicate that the self-decomposition involves O-O bond homolytic cleavage of the peroxo moiety; concomitant hydrogen-atom abstraction from the solvent is partially involved. In the presence of 1,4-cyclohexadiene (CHD), the cumylperoxo complexes react smoothly at 30 °C to give benzene as one product. Detailed product analyses and DFT studies indicate that reaction with CHD involves concerted O-O bond homolytic cleavage and hydrogen-atom abstraction from the substrate, with the oxygen atom directly bonded to the copper(II) ion (proximal oxygen) involved in the C-H bond activation step.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is frequently used to probe the substrate-binding site of "spectroscopically silent" non-heme Fe(2+) sites of metalloenzymes, such as superoxide reductase (SOR). Herein we use NO to probe the superoxide binding site of our thiolate-ligated biomimetic SOR model [Fe(II)(S(Me(2))N(4)(tren))](+) (1). Like NO-bound trans-cysteinate-ligated SOR (SOR-NO), the rhombic S = 3/2 EPR signal of NO-bound cis-thiolate-ligated [Fe(S(Me(2))N(4)(tren)(NO)](+) (2; g = 4.44, 3.54, 1.97), the isotopically sensitive ν(NO)(ν((15)NO)) stretching frequency (1685(1640) cm(-1)), and the 0.05 Å decrease in Fe-S bond length are shown to be consistent with the oxidative addition of NO to Fe(II) to afford an Fe(III)-NO(-) {FeNO}(7) species containing high-spin (S = 5/2) Fe(III) antiferromagnetically coupled to NO(-) (S = 1). The cis versus trans positioning of the thiolate does not appear to influence these properties. Although it has yet to be crystallographically characterized, SOR-NO is presumed to possess a bent Fe-NO similar to that of 2 (Fe-N-O = 151.7(4)°). The N-O bond is shown to be more activated in 2 relative to N- and O-ligated {FeNO}(7) complexes, and this is attributed to the electron-donating properties of the thiolate ligand. Hydrogen-bonding to the cysteinate sulfur attenuates N-O bond activation in SOR, as shown by its higher ν(NO) frequency (1721 cm(-1)). In contrast, the ν(O-O) frequency of the SOR peroxo intermediate and its analogues is not affected by H-bonds to the cysteinate sulfur or other factors influencing the Fe-SR bond strength; these only influence the ν(Fe-O) frequency. Reactions between 1 and NO(2)(-) are shown to result in the proton-dependent heterolytic cleavage of an N-O bond. The mechanism of this reaction is proposed to involve both Fe(II)-NO(2)(-) and {FeNO}(6) intermediates similar to those implicated in the mechanism of NiR-promoted NO(2)(-) reduction.

Abstract
The reaction of a series of thiolate-ligated iron(II) complexes [Fe(II)([15]aneN(4))(SC(6)H(5))]BF(4) (1), [Fe(II)([15]aneN(4))(SC(6)H(4)-p-Cl)]BF(4) (2), and [Fe(II)([15]aneN(4))(SC(6)H(4)-p-NO(2))]BF(4) (3) with alkylhydroperoxides at low temperature (-78 °C or -40 °C) leads to the metastable alkylperoxo-iron(III) species [Fe(III)([15]aneN(4))(SC(6)H(5))(OOtBu)]BF(4) (1a), [Fe(III)([15]aneN(4))(SC(6)H(4)-p-Cl)(OOtBu)]BF(4) (2a), and [Fe(III)([15]aneN(4))(SC(6)H(4)-p-NO(2))(OOtBu)]BF(4) (3a), respectively. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) studies were conducted on the Fe(III)-OOR complexes and their iron(II) precursors. The edge energy for the iron(II) complexes (∼7118 eV) shifts to higher energy upon oxidation by ROOH, and the resulting edge energies for the Fe(III)-OOR species range from 7121-7125 eV and correlate with the nature of the thiolate donor. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) analysis of the iron(II) complexes 1-3 in CH(2)Cl(2) show that their solid state structures remain intact in solution. The EXAFS data on 1a-3a confirm their proposed structures as mononuclear, 6-coordinate Fe(III)-OOR complexes with 4N and 1S donors completing the coordination sphere. The Fe-O bond distances obtained from EXAFS for 1a-3a are 1.82-1.85 Å, significantly longer than other low-spin Fe(III)-OOR complexes. The Fe-O distances correlate with the nature of the thiolate donor, in agreement with the previous trends observed for ν(Fe-O) from resonance Raman (RR) spectroscopy, and supported by optimized geometries obtained from density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Reactivity and kinetic studies on 1a- 3a show an important influence of the thiolate donor.

Abstract
In the absence of base, the reaction of [Fe(II)(TMCS)]PF6 (1, TMCS = 1-(2-mercaptoethyl)-4,8,11-trimethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) with peracid in methanol at -20 °C did not yield the oxoiron(IV) complex (2, [Fe(IV)(O)(TMCS)]PF6), as previously observed in the presence of strong base (KO(t)Bu). Instead, the addition of 1 equiv of peracid resulted in 50% consumption of 1. The addition of a second equivalent of peracid resulted in the complete consumption of 1 and the formation of a new species 3, as monitored by UV-vis, ESI-MS, and Mössbauer spectroscopies. ESI-MS showed 3 to be formulated as [Fe(II)(TMCS) + 2O](+), while EXAFS analysis suggested that 3 was an O-bound iron(II)-sulfinate complex (Fe-O = 1.95 Å, Fe-S = 3.26 Å). The addition of a third equivalent of peracid resulted in the formation of yet another compound, 4, which showed electronic absorption properties typical of an oxoiron(IV) species. Mössbauer spectroscopy confirmed 4 to be a novel iron(IV) compound, different from 2, and EXAFS (Fe═O = 1.64 Å) and resonance Raman (ν(Fe═O) = 831 cm(-1)) showed that indeed an oxoiron(IV) unit had been generated in 4. Furthermore, both infrared and Raman spectroscopy gave indications that 4 contains a metal-bound sulfinate moiety (ν(s)(SO2) ≈ 1000 cm (-1), ν(as)(SO2) ≈ 1150 cm (-1)). Investigations into the reactivity of 1 and 2 toward H(+) and oxygen atom transfer reagents have led to a mechanism for sulfur oxidation in which 2 could form even in the absence of base but is rapidly protonated to yield an oxoiron(IV) species with an uncoordinated thiol moiety that acts as both oxidant and substrate in the conversion of 2 to 3.

Abstract
A new five-coordinate, (N(4)S(thiolate))Fe(II) complex, containing tertiary amine donors, [Fe(II)(Me(4)[15]aneN(4))(SPh)]BPh(4) (2), was synthesized and structurally characterized as a model of the reduced active site of superoxide reductase (SOR). Reaction of 2 with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (tBuOOH) at -78 degrees C led to the generation of the alkylperoxo-iron(III) complex [Fe(III)(Me(4)[15]aneN(4))(SPh)(OOtBu)](+) (2a). The nonthiolate-ligated complex, [Fe(II)(Me(4)[15]aneN(4))(OTf)(2)] (3), was also reacted with tBuOOH and yielded the corresponding alkylperoxo complex [Fe(III)(Me(4)[15]aneN(4))(OTf)(OOtBu)](+) (3a) at an elevated temperature of -23 degrees C. These species were characterized by low-temperature UV-vis, EPR, and resonance Raman spectroscopies. Complexes 2a and 3a exhibit distinctly different spectroscopic signatures than the analogous alkylperoxo complexes [Fe(III)([15]aneN(4))(SAr)(OOR)](+), which contain secondary amine donors. Importantly, alkylation at nitrogen leads to a change from low-spin (S = 1/2) to high-spin (S = 5/2) of the iron(III) center. The resonance Raman data reveal that this change in spin state has a large effect on the nu(Fe-O) and nu(O-O) vibrations, and a comparison between 2a and the nonthiolate-ligated complex 3a shows that axial ligation has an additional significant impact on these vibrations. To our knowledge this study is the first in which the influence of a ligand trans to a peroxo moiety has been evaluated for a structurally equivalent pair of high-spin/low-spin peroxo-iron(III) complexes. The implications of spin state and thiolate ligation are discussed with regard to the functioning of SOR.

Abstract
Resonance Raman (RR) studies of intermediates generated by cryoreduction of the oxyferrous complex of the D251N mutant of cytochrome P450(cam) (CYP101) are reported. Owing to the fact that proton delivery to the active site is hindered in this mutant, the unprotonated peroxo-ferric intermediate is observed as the primary species after radiolytic reduction of the oxy-complex in frozen solutions at 77 K. In as much as previous EPR and ENDOR studies have shown that annealing of this species to approximately 180 K results in protonation of the distal oxygen atom to form the hydroperoxo intermediate, this system has been exploited to permit direct RR interrogation of the changes in the Fe-O and O-O bonds caused by the reduction and subsequent protonation. Our results show that the nu(O-O) mode decreases from a superoxo-like frequency near approximately 1130 cm(-1) to 792 cm(-1) upon reduction. The latter frequency, as well as its lack of sensitivity to H/D exchange, is consistent with heme-bound peroxide formulation. This species also exhibits a nu(Fe-O) mode, the 553 cm(-1) frequency of which is higher than that observed for the nonreduced oxy P450 precursor (537 cm(-1)), implying a strengthened Fe-O linkage upon reduction. Upon subsequent protonation, the resulting Fe-O-OH fragment exhibits a lowered nu(O-O) mode at 774 cm(-1), whereas the nu(Fe-O) increases to 564 cm(-1). Both modes exhibit a downshift upon H/D exchange, as expected for a hydroperoxo-ferric formulation. These experimental RR data are compared with those previously acquired for the wild-type protein, and the shifts observed upon reduction and subsequent protonation are discussed with reference to theoretical predictions.

Abstract
Iron peroxide species have been identified as important intermediates in a number of nonheme iron as well as heme-containing enzymes, yet there are only a few examples of such species either synthetic or biological that have been well characterized. We describe the synthesis and structural characterization of a new series of five-coordinate (N4S(thiolate))Fe(II) complexes that react with tert-butyl hydroperoxide ((t)BuOOH) or cumenyl hydroperoxide (CmOOH) to give metastable alkylperoxo-iron(III) species (N4S(thiolate)Fe(III)-OOR) at low temperature. These complexes were designed specifically to mimic the nonheme iron active site of superoxide reductase, which contains a five-coordinate iron(II) center bound by one Cys and four His residues in the active form of the protein. The structures of the Fe(II) complexes are analyzed by X-ray crystallography, and their electrochemical properties are assessed by cyclic voltammetry. For the Fe(III)-OOR species, low-temperature UV-vis spectra reveal intense peaks between 500-550 nm that are typical of peroxide to iron(III) ligand-to-metal charge-transfer (LMCT) transitions, and EPR spectroscopy shows that these alkylperoxo species are all low-spin iron(III) complexes. Identification of the vibrational modes of the Fe(III)-OOR unit comes from resonance Raman (RR) spectroscopy, which shows nu(Fe-O) modes between 600-635 cm(-1) and nu(O-O) bands near 800 cm(-1). These Fe-O stretching frequencies are significantly lower than those found in other low-spin Fe(III)-OOR complexes. Trends in the data conclusively show that this weakening of the Fe-O bond arises from a trans influence of the thiolate donor, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations support these findings. These results suggest a role for the cysteine ligand in SOR, and are discussed in light of the recent assessments of the function of the cysteine ligand in this enzyme.

Abstract
The reactions of iron(II) complexes [Fe(T(pt-Bu,i-Pr))(OH)] (1a, Tp(t-Bu,i-Pr) = hydrotris(3-tert-butyl-5-isopropyl-1-pyrazolyl)borate), [Fe(6-Me2BPMCN)(OTf)2] (1b, 6-Me2BPMCN = N,N'-bis((2-methylpyridin-6-yl)methyl)-N,N'-dimethyl-trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane), and [Fe(L8Py2)(OTf)](OTf) (1c, L8Py2 = 1,5-bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-1,5-diazacyclooctane) with tert-BuOOH give rise to high-spin FeIII-OOR complexes. X-ray absorption spectra (XAS) of these high-spin species show characteristic features, distinct from those of low-spin Fe-OOR complexes (Rohde, J.-U.; et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2004, 126, 16750-16761). These include (1) an intense 1s --> 3d preedge feature, with an area around 20 units, (2) an edge energy, ranging from 7122 to 7126 eV, that is affected by the coordination environment, and (3) a 1.86-1.96 A Fe-OOR bond, compared to the 1.78 A Fe-OOR bond in low-spin complexes. These unique features likely arise from a flexible first coordination sphere in those complexes. The difference in Fe-OOR bond length may rationalize differences in reactivity between low-spin and high-spin FeIII-OOR species.

Abstract
Toxic superoxide radicals, generated via adventitious reduction of dioxygen, have been implicated in a number of disease states. The cysteinate-ligated non-heme iron enzyme superoxide reductase (SOR) degrades superoxide via reduction. Biomimetic analogues which provide insight into why nature utilizes a trans-thiolate to promote SOR function are described. Spectroscopic and/or structural characterization of the first examples of thiolate-ligated Fe (III)-peroxo complexes provides important benchmark parameters for the identification of biological intermediates. Oxidative addition of superoxide is favored by low redox potentials. The trans influence of the thiolate appears to significantly weaken the Fe-O peroxo bond, favoring proton-induced release of H 2O 2 from a high-spin Fe(III)-OOH complex.

Abstract
Superoxide reductase is a novel class of non-heme iron proteins that catalyzes the one-electron reduction of O(2)(.) to H(2)O(2), providing an antioxidant defense in some bacteria. Its active site consists of an unusual non-heme Fe(2+) center in a [His(4) Cys(1)] square pyramidal pentacoordination. In this class of enzyme, the cysteine axial ligand has been hypothesized to be an essential feature in the reactivity of the enzyme. Previous Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy studies on the enzyme from Desulfoarculus baarsii revealed that a protonated carboxylate group, proposed to be the side chain of Glu(114), is in interaction with the cysteine ligand. In this work, using pulse radiolysis, Fourier transform infrared, and resonance Raman spectroscopies, we have investigated to what extent the presence of this Glu(114) carboxylic lateral chain affects the strength of the S-Fe bond and the reaction of the iron active site with superoxide. The E114A mutant shows significantly modified pulse radiolysis kinetics for the protonation process of the first reaction intermediate. Resonance Raman spectroscopy demonstrates that the E114A mutation results in both a strengthening of the S-Fe bond and an increase in the extent of freeze-trapping of a Fe-peroxo species after treatment with H(2)O(2) by a specific strengthening of the Fe-O bond. A fine tuning of the strength of the S-Fe bond by the presence of Glu(114) appears to be an essential factor for both the strength of the Fe-O bond and the pK(a) value of the Fe(3+)-peroxo intermediate species to form the reaction product H(2)O(2).

Abstract
Iron-peroxide intermediates are central in the reaction cycle of many iron-containing biomolecules. We trapped iron(III)-(hydro)peroxo species in crystals of superoxide reductase (SOR), a nonheme mononuclear iron enzyme that scavenges superoxide radicals. X-ray diffraction data at 1.95 angstrom resolution and Raman spectra recorded in crystallo revealed iron-(hydro)peroxo intermediates with the (hydro)peroxo group bound end-on. The dynamic SOR active site promotes the formation of transient hydrogen bond networks, which presumably assist the cleavage of the iron-oxygen bond in order to release the reaction product, hydrogen peroxide.

Abstract
Superoxide reductase (SOR) and P450 enzymes contain similar [Fe(N)4(SCys)] active sites and, although they catalyze very different reactions, are proposed to involve analogous low-spin (hydro)peroxo-Fe(III) intermediates in their respective mechanisms that can be modeled by cyanide binding. The equatorial FeN4 ligation by four histidine ligands in CN-SOR and the heme in CN-P450cam is directly compared by 14N ENDOR, while the axial Fe-CN and Fe-S bonding is probed by 13C ENDOR of the cyanide ligand and 1Hbeta ENDOR measurements to determine the spin density delocalization onto the cysteine sulfur. There are small, but notable, differences in the bonding between Fe(III) and its ligands in the two enzymes. The ENDOR measurements are complemented by DFT computations that support the semiempirical equation used to compute spin densities on metal-coordinated cysteinyl and shed light on bonding changes as the Fe-C-N linkage bends. They further indicate that H bonds to the cysteinyl thiolate sulfur ligand reduce the spin density on the sulfur in both active sites to a degree that exceeds the difference induced by the alternative sets of "in-plane" nitrogen ligands.

Abstract
The synthesis of a mononuclear, five-coordinate ferrous complex [([15]aneN4)FeII(SPh)](BF4) (1) is reported. This complex is a new model of the reduced active site of the enzyme superoxide reductase (SOR), which is comprised of a [(NHis)4(Scys)FeII] center. Complex 1 reacts with alkylhydroperoxides (tBuOOH, cumenylOOH) at low temperature to give a metastable, dark red intermediate (2a: R = tBu; 2b: R = cumenyl) that has been characterized by UV-vis, EPR, and resonance Raman spectroscopy. The UV-vis spectrum (-80 degrees C) reveals a 526 nm absorbance (epsilon = 2150 M-1 cm-1) for 2a and a 527 nm absorbance (epsilon = 1650 M-1 cm-1) for 2b, indicative of alkylperoxo-to-iron(III) LMCT transitions, and the EPR data (77 K) show that both intermediates are low-spin iron(III) complexes (g = 2.20 and 1.97). Definitive identification of the Fe(III)-OOR species comes from RR spectra, which give nu(Fe-O) = 612 (2a) and 615 (2b) cm-1, and nu(O-O) = 803 (2a) and 795 (2b) cm-1. The assignments for 2a were confirmed by 18O substitution (tBu18O18OH), resulting in a 28 cm-1 downshift for nu(Fe-18O), and a 46 cm-1 downshift for nu(18O-18O). These data show that 2a and 2b are low-spin FeIII-OOR species with weak Fe-O bonds and suggest that a low-spin intermediate may occur in SOR, as opposed to previous proposals invoking high-spin intermediates.

Abstract
Linear tetradentate N2Py2 ligands can coordinate to an octahedral FeII center in three possible topologies (cis-alpha, cis-beta, and trans). While for the N,N'-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)-1,2-diaminoethane (bpmen) complex, only the cis-alpha topology has been observed, for N,N'-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane (bpmcn) both cis-alpha and cis-beta isomers have been reported. To date, no facile interconversion between cis-alpha and cis-beta topologies has been observed for ironII complexes even at high temperatures. However, this work provides evidence for facile interconversion in solution of cis-alpha, cis-beta, and trans topologies for [Fe(bpmpn)X2] (bpmpn=N,N'-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)-1,3-diaminopropane; X=triflate, CH3CN) complexes. As reported previously, the catalytic behavior of cis-alpha and cis-beta isomers of [Fe(bpmcn)(OTf)2] with respect to olefin oxidation depends dramatically on the geometry adopted by the iron complex. To establish a general pattern of the catalysis/topology dependence, this work presents an extended comparison of the catalytic behavior for oxidation of olefins of a family of [Fe(N2py2)] complexes that present different topologies. 18O labeling experiments provide evidence for a complex mechanistic landscape in which several pathways should be considered. Complexes with a trans topology catalyze only non-water-assisted epoxidation. In contrast, complexes with a cis-alpha topology, such as [Fe(bpmen)X2] and [Fe(alpha-bpmcn)(OTf)2], can catalyze both epoxidation and cis-dihydroxylation through a water-assisted mechanism. Surprisingly, [Fe(bpmpn)X2] and [Fe(beta-bpmcn)(OTf)2] catalyze epoxidation via a water-assisted pathway and cis-dihydroxylation via a non-water-assisted mechanism, a result that requires two independent and distinct oxidants.

Abstract
This paper describes a second-generation synthesis of an antitumor tetrahydropyran (THP) acetogenin, pyragonicin. The key step involved an olefin cross-metathesis between the THP segment and the terminal gamma-lactone residue. The coupling reaction in the presence of Grubbs' second-generation catalyst resulted in an unseparable mixture of a desired coupling product and its one-carbon eliminated product while the use of Grubbs' first-generation catalyst afforded the former exclusively. A novel MOM-migrating reaction found in a cyclization reaction is also discussed.

Abstract
The factors controlling the highly alpha-selective C-glycosylation of ribose derivatives were determined by examining the stereoselective reactions of 18 ribose analogues differing in substitution at C-2, C-3, and C-4. The lowest energy conformers of the intermediate oxocarbenium ions display the C-3 alkoxy group in a pseudoaxial orientation to maximize electrostatic effects. To a lesser extent, the C-2 substituent prefers a pseudoequatorial position, and the alkyl group at C-4 has little influence on conformational preferences. In all cases, the product was formed by stereoelectronically preferred inside attack on the lowest energy conformer.

Abstract
Superoxide reductase (SOR) catalyzes the reduction of O2*- to H2O2. Its active site consists of a non-heme Fe2+ center in an unusual square-pyramidal [His4 Cys] coordination. Like many SORs, the electronic absorption band corresponding to the oxidized active site of the SOR from Desulfoarculus baarsii exhibits a pH-dependent alkaline transition changing from ca. 644 to 560 nm as the pH increases and with an apparent pKa of 9.0. Variants in which the conserved amino acids glutamate 47 and lysine 48 were replaced by the neutral residues alanine (E47A) and isoleucine (K48I), respectively, exhibited the same alkaline transition but at lower apparent pKa values of 6.7 and 7.6, respectively. Previous work [Nivière, V.; Asso, M.; Weill, C. O.; Lombard, M.; Guigliarelli, B.; Favaudon, V.; Houée-Levin, C. Biochemistry 2004, 43, 808-818] has shown that this alkaline transition is associated with the protonation/deprotonation of an unidentified base, B-, which is neither E47 nor K48. In this work, we show by resonance Raman spectroscopy that at basic pH a high-spin Fe3+-OH species is formed at the active site. The presence of the HO- ligand was directly associated with an absorption band maximum at 560 nm, whereas upon protonation, the band shifts to 644 nm. With respect to our previous work, B- can be identified with this high-spin Fe3+-OH species, which upon protonation results in a water molecule at the active site. Implications for the SOR catalytic cycle are proposed.
