Activation of hydrocarbon C–H bonds by iodosylbenzene: how does it compare with iron(IV)–oxo oxidants?

TL;DR: Combined experimental and theoretical studies on the reactivity of iodosylbenzene show that PhIO is capable of activating weak C-H bonds of hydrocarbons via a hydrogen abstraction mechanism.

Redox and catalytic properties of new polypyrrole modified electrodes functionalized by [Ru(bpea)(bpy)H2O]2+ complexes; bpea=N,N′-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)ethylamine, bpy=2,2′-bipyridine

TL;DR: In this paper, ruthenium(II) complexes containing one or two pyrrole-functionalized polypyridylic ligands have been prepared in order to study their electrochemical behavior in heterogeneous phase, after anodic polymerization from CH2Cl2 solution on an electrode surface.

Perbrominated 2-nitrotetraphenylporphyrins: electrochemical and axial ligation properties

TL;DR: In this article, a new series of perbrominated 2-nitro-5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrins, H2TPPBrn(NO2) (n = 6 and 7) and their metal (CuII and ZnII) complexes have been synthesised and characterised.

Production of OH radicals in the autoxidation of the Fe(II)–EDTA system

TL;DR: In this article, the autoxidation of oxygenated solutions of Fe(II)-EDTA containing dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) proceeds with the participation of the OH radical, whose presence as the crucial reactive intermediate has been established by the competition method based on the formation of methanesulfinic acid from DMSO as the reference.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nuclease and anti-proliferative activities of copper(II) complexes of N3O tripodal ligands involving a sterically hindered phenolate

TL;DR: Experiments in the presence of various scavengers reveal that reactive oxygen species (ROS) are not involved in the strand scission mechanism and copper(II) complexes are able to circumvent cisplatin cellular resistance.
