Multielectron transfer in a dicopper(II) anthraquinophane.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The new dinuclear copper(II) metallacyclophane with the non-innocent N,N'-1,4-bis(oxamate)-9,10-anthraquinone bridging ligand possesses a dual multielectron redox behavior featuring stepwise one-electron oxidation of the antiferromagnetically coupled Cu(II) ions and two-electron reduction of the anthraquinone spacers in a π-stacked anti conformation.

Multielectron-transfer reactions at single Cu(II) centers embedded in polyoxotungstates driven by photo-induced metal-to-metal charge transfer from anchored Ce(III) to framework W(VI).
Using carbon monoxide as a probe molecule for the oxidation state of Cu ions, we demonstrated that anchored polynuclear charge-transfer complexes consisting of Ce(III) ions and Cu(II)-substituted Keggin-type polyoxotungstates function as efficient visible-light-driven multielectron-transfer catalysts.
متن کاملComplete σ* intramolecular aromatic hydroxylation mechanism through O2 activation by a Schiff base macrocyclic dicopper(I) complex
In this work we analyze the whole molecular mechanism for intramolecular aromatic hydroxylation through O2 activation by a Schiff hexaazamacrocyclic dicopper(I) complex, [Cu(I) 2(bsH2m)](2+). Assisted by DFT calculations, we unravel the reaction pathway for the overall intramolecular aromatic hydroxylation, i.e., from the initial O2 reaction with the dicopper(I) species to first form a Cu(I)Cu(...
متن کاملElectron-transfer reduction of dinuclear copper peroxo and bis-μ-oxo complexes leading to the catalytic four-electron reduction of dioxygen to water.
The four-electron reduction of dioxygen by decamethylferrocene (Fc*) to water is efficiently catalyzed by a binuclear copper(II) complex (1) and a mononuclear copper(II) complex (2) in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid in acetone at 298 K. Fast electron transfer from Fc* to 1 and 2 affords the corresponding Cu(I) complexes, which react at low temperature (193 K) with dioxygen to afford the η...
متن کاملModelling tyrosinase monooxygenase activity. Activation of dioxygen by dicopper(I) complexes and characterisation of dicopper(II) complexes
Activation of dioxygen on dicopper(I) centres was systematically investigated using a group of open-chain and a macrocyclic m-xylyl-based dinucleating ligand from a bioinorganic viewpoint. Even though intermediate peroxodicopper(II) species was not detected (even at –80°C for the open-chain system), the putative intermediate reacted with C–H groups in ligands giving oxygenated products (C–OH gr...
متن کاملRedox switching of the antiferromagnetic coupling in permethylated dicopper(II) paracyclophanes.
A unique magnetic electroswitching behavior has been observed in an oxamato-based permethylated dicopper(II) paracyclophane; upon reversible one-electron oxidation of the double tetramethyl-substituted p-phenylenediamidate bridging skeleton, the spin alignment of the two Cu(II) ions (S(Cu) = ½) changes from antiparallel (OFF) to parallel (ON) in the resulting dicopper(II) π-radical cation species.
