End-on superoxocopper(II) are evidenced to be active oxidants in a number of copper-containing oxygenase enzymes which are responsible for catalysing the stereoselective oxidation of moderate strength C─H bonds at ambient temperatures. Presently, there are over twenty synthetic biomimetic end-on sup...
