Additional information

One of the big controversies in cytochrome P450 chemistry relates to the nature of the active species, where some studies seem to give evidence of an active iron(III)-hydroperoxo intermediate, while other studies prefer Compound I. This paper highlights the differences in reactivity of Compound I versus iron(III)-hydroperoxo in substrate activation and highlights recent advances in the field. Moreover, it shows that the most likely scenario is a Compound I active species in hydrogen atom abstraction reactions. This is a significant observation and helps with future catalyst design and development.
