Efficient water oxidation catalyzed by homogeneous cationic cobalt porphyrins with critical roles for the buffer base
Dong Wang,John T. Groves +1 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that Co–5,10,15,20-tetrakis-(1,3-dimethylimidazolium-2-yl)porphyrin is an efficient, homogeneous, single-site water oxidation catalyst.

Nonheme oxoiron(IV) complexes of pentadentate N5 ligands: spectroscopy, electrochemistry, and oxidative reactivity
Dong Wang,Kallol Ray,M. J. Collins,M. J. Collins,Erik R. Farquhar,Jonathan R. Frisch,Laura Gómez,Timothy A. Jackson,Marion Kerscher,Arkadius Waleska,Peter Comba,Miquel Costas,Lawrence Que +12 more
TL;DR: This study represents the first investigation to compare the electrochemical and oxidative properties of a series of S = 1 Fe(IV)=O complexes with different ligand frameworks and sheds some light on the complexities of the reactivity of the oxoiron(IV) unit.
A synthetic precedent for the [FeIV2(μ-O)2] diamond core proposed for methane monooxygenase intermediate Q
Genqiang Xue,Dong Wang,Raymond F De Hont,Adam T. Fiedler,Xiaopeng Shan,Eckard Münck,Lawrence Que +6 more
TL;DR: A comparison of 2b and its mononuclear analog [FeIV(O)(Lb)(NCMe)]2+ (4b) reveals that 4b is 100-fold more reactive than 2b in oxidizing weak CH bonds, which may shed further light on how intermediate Q carries out the hydroxylation of methane.

A diiron(IV) complex that cleaves strong C-H and O-H bonds.
TL;DR: This novel species has an Fe(IV/III) redox potential of +1.50 V vs. ferrocene and can also cleave the strong O-H bonds of methanol and tert-butanol instead of their weaker C-H Bonds, representing the first example of O- H bond activation for iron complexes.
Redox potential and C-H bond cleaving properties of a nonheme Fe(IV)=O complex in aqueous solution.
TL;DR: Electrochemical results suggest that the nonheme N4Py ligand environment confers a kinetic advantage over the others that enhances the C-H bond cleavage ability of 1, the first example of reversible electrochemistry to be observed for this family of non heme oxoiron (IV) complexes.
