Abstract
A mononuclear nonheme iron(IV)-amido complex bearing a tetraamido macrocyclic ligand, [(TAML)Fe IV (NHTs)] - (1), was synthesized via a hydrogen atom (H atom) abstraction reaction of an iron(V)-imido complex, [(TAML)Fe V (NTs)] - (2), and fully characterized using various spectroscopies. We then investigated (1) the pK a of 1, (2) the reaction of 1 with a carbon-centered radical, and (3) the H atom abstraction reaction of 1. To the best of our knowledge, the present study reports for the first time the synthesis and chemical properties/reactions of a high-valent iron(IV)-amido complex.
