Living with oxygen

Gray, Harry ORCID icon

Abstract

Metal-oxos are active intermediates in reactions crit. for life on Planet Earth, water oxidn. to oxygen in photosynthesis, and oxygen redn. in respiration. The ligand field theory of metal-oxo electronic structure, which accounts for the spectroscopic and magnetic properties of these complexes, also provides a platform for discussion of their roles in the mechanisms of inorg. and biol. redox reactions.
