An Fe IV O group meets with H 2 O 2 ! Reaction of high‐valent iron with the reactive oxygen species (ROS) hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) is in general reserved for heme centers. Employing a biomimetic metal complex, the direct reaction of a mononuclear nonheme oxoiron(IV) species with H 2 O 2 was observed and studied mechanistically, offering a new perspective for the chemistry between ROS and high‐valent oxometal complexes.
