Chem Commun (Camb). 2005 Mar 21:(11):1405-7. doi: 10.1039/b415507f. Epub 2005 Jan 27.

Abstract

A mononuclear nonheme oxoiron(IV) complex bearing a pentadentate N5 ligand was prepared in aqueous solution; the pH dependence of its stability and reactivities was reported along with the mechanistic details of sulfide oxidation by the oxoiron(IV) species.
