Photochemical tyrosine oxidation with a hydrogen-bonded proton acceptor by bidirectional proton-coupled electron transfer

Amino acid radical generation and transport are fundamentally important to numerous essential biological processes to which small molecule models lend valuable mechanistic insights. Pyridyl-amino acid-methyl esters are appended to a rhenium(I) tricarbonyl 1,10-phenanthroline core to yield rhenium–am...
