family of mononuclear non heme iron catalysts with the formula [FeII (CF3SO3) 2 (L)] is
described, in which L is a tetradentate ligand containing a triazacyclononane tripod and a
pyridine ring bearing different substituents at the α and γ positions, which tune the electronic
or steric properties of the corresponding iron complexes. Two inequivalent cis‐labile
exchangeable sites, occupied by triflate ions, complete the octahedral iron coordination …
