We report on the synthesis of a variety of trigonal imido cobalt complexes [Co(NAryl)L<sub>2</sub>)<sup>–</sup>, (L = N(Dipp)SiMe<sub>3</sub>), Dipp = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl) bearing very long Co–NAryl bonds of around 1.75 Å. The electronic structure was interrogated using a variety of physical and spectroscopic methods indicating the first authenticated examples of cobalt bound imidyl species. Computational studies corroborate these findings and reveal that the high-spin state of these complexes gives rise to unpaired spin-density on the imide nitrogen and leads to its imidyl character. Obtained complexes are capable of intermolecular H atom abstraction from C–H bonds that yields the corresponding cobalt amides. Exchange of the Dipp-substituent on the imide by the smaller mesityl function (2,4,6-trimethylphenyl) effectuates the unexpected Me<sub>3</sub>Si shift from the ancillary ligand set to the imide nitrogen, followed by intramolecular C–H bond activation.<br>

Non-heme iron oxygenases utilize dioxygen to accomplish challenging chemical oxidations. Further understanding of the Fe-O<sub>2</sub> intermediates implicated in these processes is challenged by their highly transient nature. To that end, we have developed a ligand platform featuring phosphinimide donors intended to stabilize oxidized, high-spin iron complexes. O<sub>2</sub> exposure of single crystals of a three-coordinate Fe(II) complex of this framework allowed for in crystallo trapping of a terminally-bound Fe-O<sub>2</sub> complex suitable for XRD characterization. Spectroscopic and computational studies of this species support a high-spin Fe(III) center antiferromagnetically coupled to a superoxide ligand, similar to that proposed for numerous non-heme iron oxygenases. In addition to the stability of this synthetic Fe-O<sub>2</sub> complex, its ability to engage in a range of stoichiometric and catalytic oxidation processes demonstrates that this iron-phosphinimide system is primed for development in modelling oxidizing bioinorganic intermediates and green oxidation chemistry.
