Abstract: | The reaction of TEMPO with the iron(I) synthon PhB(MesIm)(3)Fe(COE) leads to formation of the κ(1)-TEMPO complex PhB(MesIm)(3)Fe(TEMPO). Structural and spectroscopic data establish the complex contains divalent iron bound to a nitroxido anion and is isoelectronic to an iron(II) peroxo complex. Thermolysis of the complex results in N-O bond homolysis, leading to the formation of an iron(III) oxo intermediate. The oxo intermediate is active in oxygen atom transfer reactions and can be trapped by the triphenylmethyl radical to give the iron(II) alkoxo complex PhB(MesIm)(3)Fe(OCPh(3)). |
