Bio-inspired iron and cobalt complexes featuring a secondary coordination sphere: ligand design, complexation, and modeling of enzymatic processes
The activation of small molecules is crucial to the function of biological systems’ metabolic processes, detoxification, and cellular signaling. Metallocofactors and protein scaffolds often work in conjunction to attract and bind the small molecules, stabilize reactive intermediates, and shuttle …

Development of Stimulus-Responsive Ligands for the Modulation of Copper and Iron Coordination
<p>The ability to manipulate the coordination chemistry of metal ions has significant ramifications for the study and treatment of metal-related health concerns, including iron overload, UV skin damage, and microbial infection among many other conditions. To address this concern, chelating agents …

Kinetic and Spectroscopic Investigation of Structural Influences on Hydrogen-atom Transfer Reactivity of N5-Ligated Oxomanganese(IV) Complexes
High valent iron- and manganese-oxo intermediates perform important hydrogenatom transfer (HAT) reactions in both biological and synthetic systems. There has been extensive characterization of HAT reactivity of enzymatic and synthetic oxoiron(IV) species, and these complexes have been shown to …

Small molecule activation and reduction using non-heme iron complexes
In Nature, metalloenzymes are responsible for carrying out a vast array of different reactions. The secondary coordination sphere of these play an intricate role in controlling nuclearity, enhancing substrate selectivity, stabilizing reactive intermediates, and controlling the redox potential of …
