The active oxidant that oxygenates organic substrates is an iron(IV) oxo intermediate, namely, [(tpa)Fe IV (O)(CH 3 CN)] 2+ ( 2 ), which is formed through OO bond homolysis, according to experimental and computational studies on the reactivity of nonheme iron(III) alkylperoxo complex [(tpa)Fe III (OO t Bu)(CH 3 CN)] 2+ ( 1 ), which was shown to be a sluggish electrophilic oxidant that is incapable of oxygenating organic substrates. tpa=tris(2‐pyridylmethyl)amine.
