The copper-catalysed oxidative coupling of amines and H-phosphonates to produce phosphoramidates has been achieved using CuI as the catalyst and O2 (present in air) as the sole oxidant.

4,4’-Methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (4,4’-MDI) is a key linker in the production of polyurethanes. 4,4’-MDI thermally unstable, undergoing dimerization to unreactive and insoluble uretdione. The “catch–store–release” strategy presented Research Article by S. Groysman co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/chem.202300924) allows be stabilized form an imidazolium amidate that produced coordination two equival...

The metal–organic framework CuI-MFU-4l reacts with NO, initially forming a copper(I)-nitrosyl at low pressure, and subsequently generates NO disproportionation products CuII–NO2 N2O. thermal stability of MFU-4l allows NOx to be released from the temperatures greater than 200 °C. This treatment regenerates original CuI-MFU-4l, which can engage in subsequent cycles disproportionation.

This study examined the local structural properties of CuI at low temperatures of 10-300 K by x-ray diffraction (XRD) and extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurements at the Cu K edge. The XRD data were refined using two models, split (distorted zinc-blende structure) and non-split (zinc-blende structure), using a conventional Rietveld refinement combined with a maximum entropy...

The results are reported of the molecular dynamics simulations of the coherent static structure factor of molten CuI at 938 K using a polarizable ion model. This model is based on a rigid ion potential to which the many body interactions due to the anions induced polarization are added. The calculated structure factor reproduces the clear sharp prepeak observed in neutron diffraction data. The ...
