报告摘要:

  High-valent iron-oxo species have been postulated as key intermediates in various pivotal biological and chemical processes. Recently, Que and coworkers reported differential reactivity of a series of mono- and di-nuclear and iron(IV)-oxo complexes towards C-H bond activation, which reflect the effects of the core geometries (open vs. diamond core), the spin state of the reactive ferryl site (S = 1 vs. 2) and hydrogen bonding. To rationalize the observed diverse reactivity, we first analyze their electronic structures in detailby using a combined spectroscopic and computational approach, because the electronic structure and reactivity are intimately linked. Then we correlate the electronic structures with the reactivity. Our results reveal that in the reaction the diamond-core complexes undergo higher degree of the electronic and geometric readjustments than the open-core complexes, viz. the reorganization energies dictate their different reactivity.  More importantly, the quintet iron(IV)-oxo species is more potent in activatingC-H bond than the triplet conger, because different reaction channels are employed.
