The Cr(III) hydroxide [TptBu,MeCr(OH)(pz'H)] BARF (1) is produced by reaction of [TptBu,MeCr(pz'H)]BARF with [TptBu,MeCr(O2)(pz'H)]BARF or oxygen atom donors ONMe3 or PhIO in Et2O. However, reaction of [TptBu,MeCr(pz'H)]BARF with PhIO in pure CH2Cl2 yields the Cr(IV) oxo complex [TptBu,MeCr(O)(pz'H)]BARF (2). 2 abstracts hydrogen atoms from organic molecules with weak C-H bonds to form 1. Both 1 and 2 have been structurally characterized.

The nonheme iron(II) complexes containing a fluoride anion, Fe(BNPAO)(F) () and [Fe(BNPAOH)(F)(THF)](BF) (), were synthesized and structurally characterized. Addition of dioxygen to either or led to the formation of a fluoride-bridged, dinuclear iron(III) complex [Fe(BNPAO)(F)(μ-F)] (), which was characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, H NMR, and elemental analysis. An iron(II)(iodide) complex, Fe(BNPAO)(I) (), was prepared and reacted with O to give the mononuclear complex -Fe(BNPAO)(OH)(I) ().

This study presents a detailed density functional theory (DFT) investigation into the mechanism and energetics of C-H activations catalyzed by bioinspired Fe(IV)O complexes, particularly in the presence of -hydroxy mediators. The findings show that these mediators significantly enhance the reactivity of the iron-oxo complex. The study examines three substrates with varying bond dissociation energies─ethylbenzene, cyclohexane, and cyclohexadiene─alongside the [Fe(IV)O(N4Py)] complex.

High-level quantum chemical calculations are performed for the (NH)MO and (NH)MO species (M = Ti-Cu), extending our previous work on the bare MO ions. The potential energy curves along the M-O distance are constructed for the ground and multiple excited electronic states of (NH)MO and are compared to those of MO. We see that ammonia stabilizes the oxo states (MO) over the oxyl (MO) ones.

In Nature, the four-electron reduction of O is catalyzed at preorganized multimetallic active sites. These complex active sites often feature low-coordinate, redox-active metal centers precisely positioned to facilitate rapid O activation processes that obviate the generation of toxic, partially reduced oxygen species. Very few biomimetic constructs simultaneously recapitulate the complexity and reactivity of these biological cofactors.

In Salmonella Typhimurium, efflux pump proteins, such as AcrD actively expel drugs and hazardous chemicals from bacterial cells, resulting in treatment failure and the emergence of antibiotic-resistant variants. Focusing on AcrD may lead to the development of novel antimicrobials against multidrug-resistant bacteria. However, challenges persist in achieving high selectivity, low toxicity, and effective bacterial penetration.
