ABSTRACT
The present study describes the first example of the stoichiometric and catalytic oxidation of flavanone by synthetic nonheme oxoiron(iv) complexes and their precursor iron(ii) complexes with m-CPBA as the terminal oxidant. These models, including detailed kinetic, mechanistic and computational studies, may serve as the biomimics of flavone synthase (FS) enzymes.

ABSTRACT
The present study describes the first example of the hydroxylation of benzaldehydes by synthetic nonheme oxoiron(iv) complexes, where the reactivity, chemoselectivity, and mechanism were strongly influenced by the ligand environment of the iron center.
