In this report, we describe an iron(III) complex containing a carbazole-based tridentate ligand that catalyzes highly enantioselective asymmetric epoxidation of (E)-alkenes at room temperature. The non-heme iron(III) complex has a five-coordinated trigonal-bipyramidal structure, and its two-electron oxidized state has the similar electronic structure as that of iron porphyrins.
在本报告中,我们描述了一种含有咔唑基三齿配体的铁(III)配合物,该配合物在室温下能够催化(E)-烯烃的高对映选择性不对称环氧化反应。该非血红素铁(III)配合物具有五配位的三角双锥结构,其二价氧化态具有与铁卟啉相似的电子结构。
