Redox metalloenzymes achieve very selective oxidation reactions under mild conditions using O<sub>2</sub> or H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> as oxidants and release harmless side-products like water. Their oxidation selectivity is intrinsically linked to the control of the oxidizing species generated during the catalytic cycle. To do so, a second coordination sphere is used in order to create a pull effect during the activation of O<sub>2</sub> or H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>, thus ensuring a heterolyt ...[more]
