cis,cis-[(bpy)RuO]O Catalyzes Water Oxidation Formally via in Situ Generation of Radicaloid Ru—O•.

The mechanism of the catalytic oxidation of water by cis,cis-[(bpy)2Ru(OH)] to give molecular dioxygen was investigated using Density Functional Theory (DFT). A series of four oxidation and four deprotonation events generate the catalytically competent species cis,cis-[(bpy)RuO]O, which breaks the H...
