Thioether-ligated iron(II) and iron(III)-hydroperoxo/alkylperoxo complexes with an H-bond donor in the second coordination sphere.
The non-heme iron complexes, [Fe(II)(N3PySR)(CH3CN)](BF4)2 () and [Fe(II)(N3Py(amide)SR)](BF4)2 (), afford rare examples of metastable Fe(iii)-OOH and Fe(iii)-OOtBu complexes containing equatorial thioether ligands and a single H-bond donor in the second coordination sphere. These peroxo complexes were characterized by a range of spectroscopic methods and density functional theory studies. The influence of a thioether ligand and of one H-bond donor on the stability and spectroscopic properties of these complexes was investigated.
