Understanding Dioxygen Activation in the Fe(III)-Promoted Oxidative Dehydrogenation of Amines: A Computational Study by Ricardo D. Páez-López, Miguel Á. Gómez-Soto, Héctor F. Cortés-Hernández, Alejandro Solano-Peralta, Miguel Castro, Peter M. H. Kroneck, Martha E. Sosa-Torres

“…The DFT calculations show that (i) ³O₂ abstracts a hydrogen atom from the α-pyridine aliphatic C-H moiety, introducing a double bond regio-selectively at the C₇N₈ position, via the hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) mechanism, (ii) O₂ does not coordinate to the iron center to generate a high-valent Fe oxo species observed in enzymes and biomimetic complexes, and (iii) the experimental activation parameters (ΔH^≠ = 20.38 kcal mol⁻¹, ΔS^≠ = −0.018 kcal mol⁻¹ K⁻¹) fall within in the range of values reported for HAT reactions and align well with the computational results for the activated complex [Fe^IIL³_N8•]²⁺···³O₂.…”
