Hydrogen bond strength to iron(III)–oxido/hydroxido (Fe III –O/OH) units in nonheme iron complexes is revealed by Fe III –O/OH stretching vibrations detected with 57 Fe nuclear resonance vibrational spectroscopy (NRVS), as shown by Y. Guo et al. in their Communication on page 16010. The study provides a method for elucidating the influence of hydrogen bonds in the secondary coordination sphere on the stability of Fe III –O/OH. This feature may correlate with the reactivity of Fe IV =O in substrate oxidation.
