Copper carboxylate complexes

Structures of this type are especially abundant among copper carboxylate complexes ([537] and references cited therein). 

Copper Carboxylate Complexes. The structural literature on copper(n) carboxylate complexes prior to 1971 is extorsive a recent report on anti-ferromagnetism in dinuclear copper carboxylates makes reference to nearly forty relevant crystallographic papers a 1967 review of metal-peptide... 

Rutherford backscattering is ideal for investigations of diffusion near surfaces. An example is the RBS study of the diffusion of Cu(II) ions in polypropylene film oxidised between Cu foils [238]. Also the diffusion rates of copper carboxylate complexes in polymeric matrices have been studied [239] and that of iodoalkanes into polystyrene [240]. 

Sigel and co-workers" investigated the interaction between the aromatic rings of phenyl carboxylates (Ph-(CFl2)n-C02) and 1,10-phenanthroline in ternary copper(II) complexes. Variation of the number of methylene units between the aromatic ring and the carboxylate group (n=0-5) revealed that the arene - arene interaction is most pronounced for n=l. This interaction is more efficient in a 60% 1,4-...

Ethers in which at least one group is primary alkyl can be oxidized to the corresponding carboxylic esters in high yields with ruthenium tetroxide. Molecular oxygen with a binuclear copper (II) complex " or PdCVCuCVCO " also converts ethers to esters. Cyclic ethers give lactones. " The reaction, a special case of 19-14,... 

Copper(ii) complexes of 8-amino-7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin, 1,10-phenanthroline-2-carboxamide, 2-pyridone, 2,3-di-(2-pyridine N-oxide)-quinoxaline," pyridine carboxylates, l-(2 -pyridyl)-2-azonaphthol, and l-(2 -benzothiazolyl)-2-azonaphthol have also been reported. 

Numerous other examples of reactions of this type have been described and a particularly dramatic example of a product derived from oxygen atom transfer to a co-ordinated ligand is seen in the reaction of the benzimidazole ligand 9.16 with dioxygen in the presence of a copper(i) catalysts. The isolated product of the reaction is the copper(n) complex of the benzimidazole-3-carboxylic acid, 9.17. 

Adamic and Bartak [6] used high pressure aqueous size exclusion chromatography with reverse pulse amperometric detection to separate copper(II) complexes of poly(amino carboxylic acids), catechol and fulvic acids. The commercially available size exclusion chromatography columns were tested. Columns were eluted with copper(II) complexes of poly(aminocarboxylic acids), citric acids, catechol and water derived fulvic acid. The eluent contained copper(II) to prevent dissociation of the labile metal complexes. Reverse pulse electrochemical measurements were made to minimise oxygen interferences at the detector. Resolution of a mixture of DTP A, EDTA and NTA copper complexes was approximately the same on one size exclusion chromatography column as on Sephadex... 

Fig. 3.18. Mechanistic details on the transition-metal catalyzed (here Cu-catalyzed) cyclopropanation of styrene as a prototypical electron-rich alkene. The more bulky the substituent R of the ester group C02R, the stronger is the preference of transition state A over D and hence the larger the portion of the trans-cyclo-propane carboxylic acid ester in the product mixture.—The zwitterionic resonance form B turns out to be a better presentation of the electrophilic character of copper-carbene complexes than the (formally) charge-free resonance form C or the zwitterionic resonance form (not shown here) with the opposite charge distribution ( a to the C02R substituent, on Cu) copper-carbene complexes preferentially react with electron-rich alkenes.
