Mono(formazanate) boron difluoride complexes (LBF2), which show remarkably facile and reversible ligand-based redox-chemistry, were synthesized by transmetallation of bis(formazanate) zinc complexes with boron trifluoride.

Modification of an electrode with an immobilised layer of nanodiamond is found to significantly enhance the recorded currents for reversible oxidation of ferrocene methanol (FcMeOH). Current enhancement is related to nanodiamond diameter, with enhancement increasing in the order 1000 nm < 250 nm < 100 nm < 10 nm < 5 nm. We attribute the current enhancement to two catalytic processes: i) electron transfer between the solution redox species and redox-active groups on the nanodiamond surface; ii) electron transfer mediated by FcMeOH+ adsorbed onto the nanodiamond surface. The first process is pH dependent as it depends on nanodiamond surface functionalities for which electron transfer is coupled to proton transfer. The adsorption-mediated process is observed most readily at slow scan rates and is due to self-exchange between adsorbed FcMeOH+ and FcMeOH in solution. FcMeOH+ has a strong electrostatic affinity for the nanodiamond surface, as confirmed by in situ infrared (IR) experiments.

Metal ligand cooperativity is a powerful strategy in transition metal chemistry. This type of mechanism for the activation of O<sub>2</sub> is best exemplified by heme centers in biological systems. While aerobic oxidations with Fe and Cu are well precedented, Ni-based oxidations are frequently less common due to less-accessible metal-based redox couples. Some Ni enzymes utilize special ligand environments for tuning the Ni(II)/(III) redox couple such as strongly donating thiolates in Ni superoxide dismutase. A recently characterized example of a Ni-containing protein, however, suggests an alternative strategy for mediating redox chemistry with Ni by utilizing ligand-based reducing equivalents to enable oxygen binding. While this mechanism has little synthetic precedent, we show here that Ni complexes of the redox-active ligand<i><sup> t</sup></i><sup>Bu,Tol</sup>DHP (<i><sup>t</sup></i><sup>Bu,Tol</sup>DHP = 2,5-bis((2-<i>t</i>-butylhydrazono)(<i>p</i>-tolyl)methyl)-pyrrole) activate O<sub>2</sub> to generate a Ni(II) superoxo complex via ligand-based electron transfer. This superoxo complex is competent for stoichiometric oxidation chemistry with alcohols and hydrocarbons. This work demonstrates that coupling ligand-based redox chemistry with<b> </b>functionally redox-inactive Ni centers enables oxidative transformations more commonly mediated by metals such as Fe and Cu.

The redox chemistry of CeIV-polyoxometalates towards proteins is linked to the redox-active residues on protein surface. It can be tuned by adjusting reaction parameters, directly impacting its efficiency and selectivity as an artificial protease.

More than one-third of all enzymes catalyse the oxidation or reduction of a substrate and are therefore classed as oxidoreductases or redox enzymes. The, often complex, redox chemistry involved here is made possible by surprisingly few redox-active cofactors. Of these, flavin nucleotides (FAD and FMN) and haem groups are arguably the most significant. The P450 cytochromes (P450s) and nitric oxide synthases (NOSs) represent a very large and immensely important group of enzymes, which utilize both of these cofactors.
