Catalytic and stoichiometric flavanone oxidation mediated by nonheme oxoiron(iv) complexes as flavone synthase mimics: Kinetic, mechanistic and computational studies

The present study describes the first example of the stoichiometric and catalytic oxidation of flavanone by synthetic nonheme oxoiron(iv) complexes and their precursor iron(ii) complexes with m-CPBA as the terminal oxidant. These models, including detailed kinetic, mechanistic and computational studies, may serve as the biomimics of flavone synthase (FS) enzymes.
