Abstract
The Fe(II) complex of a hexanuclear non-heme ligand performs an OO bond formation reaction using iodosobenzene as the oxygen source. On the basis of infrared, UV/Vis, kinetic and DFT studies a radical coupled OO bond formation mechanism is proposed. These findings are extremely important for the design and discovery of faster and cheaper water oxidation catalysts.
