  • A similar ( value (−1.5) was found by Kobayashi in the oxidation of thioanisoles promoted by horseradish peroxidase (HRP) where an electron mechanism was proposed to occur from the sulfide to the active species iron-oxo complex (Compound I) formed after reaction of the HRP resting state with H2O2.25 Higher ρ values were reported by Neuman et al. for the one electron oxidation of thioanisoles promoted by a V-Mo complex (−3.6)31 and by Srinivasan et al. for the one-electron oxidation of thioanisoles promoted by Cr(VI) (−2.1)32.
