Not just a four-helix bundle: The use of a diiron-binding four-helix bundle scaffold with an asymmetric active site leads to an enhancement in selectivity of the iron-catalyzed oxidative coupling of phenols. The stabilization of the oxidized intermediate in the binding pocket enables the net four-electron O2 reduction, without release of any detectable H2O2.
不仅是四螺旋束:具有不对称活性位点的二

酚氧化偶联的选择性增强。结合口袋中被氧化的中间体的稳定化使得四电子O 2净减少,而不会释放任何可检测的H 2 O 2。
