Mechanistically inspired design of Fe(III)-TAML peroxide-activating catalysts.
Recent broad-ranging mechanistic studies of FeIII-TAML peroxide activators enable a strategy for designing catalysts with improved (i) hydrolytic and (ii) operational stabilities, (iii) faster activation of H2O2 and other peroxides, and (iv) a pH of highest activity closer to 7. Combining all items of insight leads to [Fe{1-NO2C6H3-3,4-(NCOCMe2NCO)2CF2}(OH2)]- (1a) which exhibits the most desirable technical performance in its class.
