Non-heme iron based halogenase enzymes promote selective halogenation of the sp3-C-H bond through iron(iv)-oxo-halide active species. During halogenation, competitive hydroxylation can be prevented completely in enzymatic systems. However, synthetic iron(iv)-oxo-halide intermediates often result in a mixture of halogenation and hydroxylation products. In this report, we have developed a new synthetic strategy by employing non-heme iron based complexes for selective sp3-C-H halogenation by overriding hydroxylation. A room temperature stable, iron(iv)-oxo complex, [Fe(2PyN2Q)(O)]2+ was directed for hydrogen atom abstraction (HAA) from aliphatic substrates and the iron(ii)-halide [FeII(2PyN2Q)(X)]+ (X, halogen) was exploited in conjunction to deliver the halogen atom to the ensuing carbon centered radical. Despite iron(iv)-oxo being an effective promoter of hydroxylation of aliphatic substrates, the perfect interplay of HAA and halogen atom transfer in this work leads to the halogenation product selectively by diverting the hydroxylation pathway. Experimental studies outline the mechanistic details of the iron(iv)-oxo mediated halogenation reactions. A kinetic isotope study between PhCH3 and C6D5CD3 showed a value of 13.5 that supports the initial HAA step as the RDS during halogenation. Successful implementation of this new strategy led to the establishment of a functional mimic of non-heme halogenase enzymes with an excellent selectivity for halogenation over hydroxylation. Detailed theoretical studies based on density functional methods reveal how the small difference in the ligand design leads to a large difference in the electronic structure of the [Fe(2PyN2Q)(O)]2+ species. Both experimental and computational studies suggest that the halide rebound process of the cage escaped radical with iron(iii)-halide is energetically favorable compared to iron(iii)-hydroxide and it brings in selective formation of halogenation products over hydroxylation.

The rate constant of the reaction between Cl atoms and CHF2Br has been measured by chlorine atom resonance fluorescence in a flow reactor at temperatures of 295–368 K and a pressure of ~1.5 Torr. Lining the inner surface of the reactor with F-32L fluoroplastic makes the rate of the heterogeneous loss of chlorine atoms very low (khet ≤ 5 s–1). The rate constant of the reaction is given by the formula k = (4.23 ± 0.13) × 10–12e(–15.56 ± 1.58)/RT cm3 molecule–1 s–1 (with the activation energy in kJ/mol units). The possible role of this reaction in the extinguishing of fires producing high concentrations of chlorine atoms is discussed.

FTIR smog chamber techniques were used to measure k(Cl + CF 3CH2OCH3) = (2.28 ± 0.44) × 10-11 and k(OH + CF3CH2OCH3) = (4.9 ± 1.3) × 10-13 cm3 molecule-1 s-1 in 700 Torr total pressure of air at 296 ± 2 K. The atmospheric lifetime of CF3CH2OCH3 is estimated at 25 days. Reaction of Cl atoms with CF3CH2OCH 3 proceeds 79 ± 4% at the CH3 group and 22 ± 2% at the CH2 group. Reaction with OH radicals proceeds 55 ± 5% at the CH3 group yielding CF3CH2OCHO and 45 ± 5% at the CH2 group yielding COF2 and CH 3OCHO as primary oxidation products. The infrared spectrum of CF 3CH(O)OCH3 was measured and a global warming potential GWP100 = 8 was estimated. The atmospheric chemistry and environmental impact of CF3CH2OCH3 is discussed in context of the use of hydrofluoroethers as CFC substitutes.
