Key Points

Oxidation of C-H and O-H bonds occurs effectively using a copper complex, highlighting its potential in catalysis.
The reactivity driven by the copper complex showcases significant proton-coupled electron transfer processes in oxidase mechanisms.
The study identifies the influence of Cu(II)-tyrosyl species on copper's oxidative activity, linking it with natural enzymatic processes.
Methodological approaches employed include detailed electrochemical analysis to quantify reactivity and assess oxidation mechanisms.

Implication

Experimental analysis reveals copper's oxidation capabilities in C-H and O-H bonds, indicating its role in metalloenzymes.

Abstract

Cupric tyrosyl intermediates have been invoked as active oxidants in oxidase and oxygenase Cu-dependent metalloenzymes. Inspired by these natural oxidants, we report the proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) reactivity of Cu...
