Towards dimetallic biologically inspired aerobic oxidation catalysts

We report herein the synthesis and properties of a range of group 8 dimetallic paddlewheel complexes incorporating a range of formamidinate and amidate ligands. The potential of some of these complexes as aerobic oxidation catalysts is explored and the electronic structures probed via the aid of DFT...
