The aqueous Fe-oxo complex and Fe-peroxy complex (e.g., ligand-assisted or interfacial Fe-hydroperoxo intermediates) have been recognized as crucial reactive intermediates for decontamination in iron-based Fenton-like processes.

Halogenation of aliphatic C-H bonds is a chemical transformation performed in nature by mononuclear nonheme iron dependent halogenases. The mechanism involves the formation of an iron(IV)-oxo-chloride species that abstracts the hydrogen atom from the reactive C-H bond to form a carbon-centered radical that selectively reacts with the bound chloride ligand, a process commonly referred to as halide rebound. The factors that determine the halide rebound, as opposed to the reaction with the incipient hydroxide ligand, are not clearly understood and examples of well-defined iron(IV)-oxo-halide compounds competent in C-H halogenation are scarce.

SznF is a nonheme diiron-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the critical N-nitrosation involved in the formation of the N-nitrosourea moiety in the pancreatic cancer drug streptozotocin. The N-nitrosation contains two successive N-hydroxylation and N-nitrosation steps, which are carried out by two separate active sites, namely, the central domain and cupin domain. Recently, the crystal structure of SznF was obtained, and the central domain was proved to contain a diiron cofactor to catalyze the N-hydroxylation.

ArIO (ArI = 2-(BuSO)CHI) is an oxidant used to oxidize Fe species to their Fe-oxo state, enabling hydrogen-atom transfer (HAT) and oxygen-atom transfer (OAT) reactions at low energy barriers. ArIO, as a ligand, generates masked Fe═O species of the type Fe-OIAr. Herein, we used gas-phase ion-molecule reactions and DFT calculations to explore the properties of masked iron-oxo species and to understand their unmasking mechanisms.
