Fenton and Fenton-like processes, which could produce highly reactive species to degrade
organic contaminants, have been widely used in the field of wastewater treatment. Therein …

The power of oriented electrostatic fields (ESFs) to influence chemical bonding and reactivity
is a phenomenon of rapidly growing interest. The presence of strong ESFs has recently …

Mimicking the bioactivity of native enzymes through synthetic chemistry is an efficient means
to advance the biocatalysts in a cell‐free environment, however, remains long‐standing …

In nature, nonheme iron enzymes use dioxygen to generate high-spin iron (IV)= O species
for a variety of oxygenation reactions. Although synthetic chemists have long sought to …

Enzymes are highly efficient catalysts in Nature that often react with high stereo-, chemo-,
and regioselectivity. Usually, enzymes achieve this selectivity through substrate binding and …

The challenge of activating inert C–H bonds motivates a study of catalysts that draws from
what can be accomplished by natural enzymes and translates these advantageous features …

Ferrate (VI) has the potential to play a key role in future water supplies. Its salts have been
suggested as “green” alternatives to current advanced oxidation and disinfection methods in …

Perchlorate (ClO4–) is a groundwater pollutant that is challenging to remediate. We report a
strategy to use Fe (II) tris (2-pyridylmethyl) amine (TPA) complexes featuring appended …

The presence of redox innocent metal ions has been proposed to modulate the reactivity of
metal ligand multiple bonds; however, insight from structure/function relationships is limited …

Binding of Lewis acidic metal ions and Brønsted acid at the metal–oxo group of high-valent
metal–oxo complexes enhances their reactivities significantly in oxidation reactions …
