New mechanistic insights in the cytochrome p-450 model reactions: Direct identification of the reactive intermediates
In CH3CN-H(2)0 medium the porphyrin Fe(IV)=O and porphyrin-C6F5IO adduct, and tBuO/tBuOO radicals have been spectroscopically identified. The involvement of multiple reactive intermediates in C6F5IO oxidizing system has also been demonstrated.
