Abstract
Tracking the transfer: The potential-energy surface along the intrinsic reaction coordinate was constructed to study the detailed mechanism of hydrogen transfer in the C-H activation of CH3CN by a di(μ-oxo)diiron(IV) complex (see figure). The diiron core structure is distorted significantly before the actual hydrogen transfer, and the reduction of FeIV to FeIII occurs gradually with the hydrogen transfer.
