Abstract
Changes of two orders of magnitude or more in the epoxidation to hydroxylation ratio of propene by the iron-oxo species 1, the primary active species of cytochrome P450 (see scheme) occur when the molecular species is subject to NH ··· S hydrogen bonding and electronic polarization as in the protein pocket.
