Biomimetic aromatic ring cleavage: An iron(II)‐2‐aminophenolate complex (see picture, right) with a tetradentate ligand reacts with dioxygen to cleave the aromatic CC bond of 2‐amino‐4‐ tert ‐butylphenolate to form 4‐ tert ‐butyl‐2‐picolinate. This complex represents a functional model of 2‐aminophenol‐1,6‐dioxygenase (APD) and 3‐hydroxyanthranilate‐3,4‐dioxygenase (HAD).
