Spectroelectrochemical and mass spectral studies indicated FeV(O) as the active oxidant, formed due to two redox transitions, which were assigned as Fe-IV(O)/Fe-III(OH2)and Fe-V(O)/Fe-IV(O). The spectral properties of both of these high-valent iron oxo species perfectly match those of their chemically synthesised versions, which were thoroughly characterised by several spectroscopic techniques. The O-O bond-formation step occurs by nucleophilic attack of H2O on FeV(O). A kinetic isotope effect of 3.2 indicates an atom-proton transfer (APT) mechanism. The reaction of chemically synthesised Fe-V(O) in CH3CN and water was directly probed by electrochemistry and was found to be first-order in water. The pK(a) value of the buffer base plays a critical role in the rate-determining step by increasing the reaction rate several-fold. The electronic effect on redox potential, WO rates, and onset overpotential was studied by employing a series of iron complexes. The catalytic activity was enhanced by the presence of electron-withdrawing groups on the bTAML framework. Changing the substituents from OMe to NO2 resulted in an eightfold increase in reaction rate, while the overpotential increased threefold.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">14</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5.771</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
