TL;DR: Reactions of synthetic iron(IV)-oxo porphyrin pi-cation radicals and mononuclear non-heme Iron(IV-oxo complexes in oxygenation reactions have been discussed as chemical models of cytochrome P450 and non- heme iron enzymes to demonstrate how mechanistic developments in biomimetic research can help understanding of dioxygen activation and oxygen atom transfer reactions in nature.

TL;DR: High-resolution crystal structure reveals an iron-oxygen bond length of 1.646(3) angstroms, demonstrating that a terminal iron(IV)=oxo unit can exist in a nonporphyrin ligand environment and lending credence to proposed mechanisms of nonheme iron catalysis.

TL;DR: A new fluorescent sensor based on rhodamine B for Pb2+ showed an extreme selectivity over other metal ions examined in acetonitrile, calculated to be 200 times that of Zn2+.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the preparation, structural characterization, and detailed lactide polymerization behavior of a new Zn(II) alkoxide complex, (L1ZnOEt)2 (L 1 = 2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-{[(2‘-dimethylaminoethyl)methylamin]methyl}phenolate).

TL;DR: This critical review of recent photonic applications of novel Ir(III) complexes suggests that future research into the photofunctionality of Ir( III) complexes will provide important breakthroughs in a variety ofPhotonic applications.
