Abstract

The biomimetic oxidations at active sites of iron proteins involve peroxides, especially hydrogen peroxide which is a strong and very convenient reagent since it is inexpensive and does not release any toxic by-products. In many cases however, Mother Nature uses molecular dioxygen to carry out major oxidation reactions in particularly attractive conditions. The biomimetic interest of iron complexes in the tris (2-pyridylmethyl) amine series (TPA) is no longer to demonstrate. Various α-substituted TPA-based ligands were prepared with the idea to modulate the electronic properties at the metal centre. A new type of ligand MeOTPA was prepared and the effect of (MeO) in the oxygenation of complex was studied
