Characterized cis-Fe^V(O)(OH) intermediate mimics enzymatic oxidations in the gas phase

Characterized <i>cis</i>-Fe^V(O)(OH) intermediate mimics enzymatic oxidations in the gas phase, Published online: 22 February 2019; doi:10.1038/s41467-019-08668-2

FeV(O)(OH) species have long been thought to play a role in a range of enzymatic oxidations, but their characterization has remained elusive. Here, using gas-phase ion spectroscopy, the authors characterize an FeV(O)(OH) species and find that its reactivity mimics that of Rieske oxygenases.
