Fig. 7: Time-gap distribution of the bond formations in the ODA reactions.

Distribution in the time gap (in fs) between C–C and C–O bond formation for a the uncatalyzed reaction, b the six-coordinate and quartet-state Fe-catalyzed reaction, c the five-coordinate and quartet-state Fe-catalyzed reaction, and d the five-coordinate and sextet-state Fe-catalyzed reaction in the gas phase (Gas, left) and solution (Soln, right).
