Nucleophilic oxidant: The reaction between a thiolato iron(II) complex 1 and superoxide in aprotic solvent at -90 °C yields a novel thiolato iron(III) peroxide intermediate 2, which exhibits unusually high nucleophilic reactivity. Compound 2 is an isomer of the thiolato iron(II) superoxide intermediate that is invoked in the reaction between superoxide reductase and superoxide.
