The mechanism of oxidation of alkanes by peroxo complexes of iron porphyrins in the presence of acylating agents: a model for activation of O2 by cytochrome P-450
Abstract
A new model for cytochrome P-450 oxidation of alkanes, which imitates the process of O2 activation by cytochrome P-450, involving the formation of iron porphyrin peroxo complexes in the presence of acylating agents is proposed.
