Oxene versus Non-oxene Reactive Intermediates in Iron(Ⅲ) Porphyrin Catalyzed Oxidation Reactions: Organometallic Compounds as Diagnostic Probes

摘要

The importance of this conclusion is that we are encouraged to investigate methods of generating oxene and the precursors from various oxidants and compare the product ratios in various solvent systems (used in most published works). In our opinion, this will be the most rational way to resolve the dichotomy remaining in early literature.
