The 7-coordinate complex [Fe(qpy)-(MeCN)(2)](ClO4)(2) (1, qpy = 2,2':6',2 '':6 '',2''':6''',2''''-quinquepyridine) is a highly active nonheme iron catalyst for intro- and intermolecular amination of C(sp(3))-H bonds. This complex effectively catalyzes the amination of limiting amounts of not only benzylic and allylic C(sp(3))-H bonds of hydrocarbons but also the C(sp(3))-H bonds of cyclic alkanes and cycloalkane/linear alkane moieties in sulfamate esters, such as those derived from menthane and steroids cholane and androstane, using PhI=NR or PhI(OAc)(2) + H2NR [R = Ts (p-toluenesulfonyl), Ns (p-nitrobenzenesulfonyl)] as nitrogen source, with the amination products isolated in up to 93% yield. Iron imide/nitrene intermediates [Fe(qpy)(NR)(X)(n+) (C-x, X = NR, solvent, or anion) are proposed in these amination reactions on the basis of experimental studies including ESI-MS analysis, crossover experiments, Hammett plots, and correlation with C H bond dissociation energies and with support by DFT calculations. Species consistent with the formulations of [Fe(qpy)(NTs)(2)](2+) (C-NTs) and [Fe(qpy)(NTs)](2+) (C) were detected by high-resolution ESI-MS analysis of the reaction mixture of 1 with PhI=NTs (4 equiv). DFT calculations revealed that the reaction barriers for H-atom abstraction of cyclohexane by the ground state of 7-coordinate C-NTs and ground state of C are 15.3 and 14.2 kcal/mol, respectively, in line with the observed high activity of 1 in catalyzing the C-H amination of alkanes under mild conditions.
