Selective catalytic oxygenation of unactivated C-H bonds for a series of substrates by dioxygen using iron complexes was performed without the use of a co-reductant. Mechanistic studies indicate that the reaction proceeded via the autocatalytic formation of an oxoiron(v) intermediate, which brings high regioselectivity and stereoretention.

Wild-type P450-BM3 is able to catalyze in a highly regio- and diastereoselective manner the oxidative hydroxylation of non-activated disubstituted cyclohexane derivatives lacking any functional groups, including cis- and trans-1,2-dimethylcyclohexane, cis- and trans-1,4-dimethylcyclohexane, and trans-1,4-methylisopropylcyclohexane. In all cases except chiral trans-1,2-dimethylcyclohexane as substrate, the single hydroxylation event at a methylene group induces desymmetrization with simultaneous creation of three centers of chirality. Certain mutants increase selectivity, setting the stage for future directed evolution work.
