title: Interior aliphatic C-H bond activation on iron(II) N-confused porphyrin through synergistic nitric oxide binding and iron oxidation.
abstract: Iron oxidation, in conjunction with NO coordination, achieved a C-H bond activation to convert [Fe(II)(HCTPPCH(3))Br] into [Fe(HCTPPCH(2))(NO)](BF(4)) at ambient temperature. The structural data and theoretical calculations confirmed the role of nitric oxide behaving as a π-accepting ligand to assist the C-H bond activation.
