Increased interest in the chemistry of ylides has produced X-ray structures for compounds 123 (R = OMe) (91T5277) and 138 (92H(34)1005), while possibilities of complex formation have led to structures for bidentate copper complex of 135 (94JCS(D)2651), monodentate copper complex of the 3-phenyltria-zolopyridine 139, monodentate (through N2) dinitrato ligand of 3-methyl-triazolopyridine 140 (99MI4), and dinitrato bidentate copper complex of...

The /3-alloys are different in nature from the 7-alloys and the a-manganese and /3-manganese structures discussed above, in that they are not complex structures, but are simple, being based upon the body-centered arrangement. /3-Brass, for example, has either a disordered structure, above 480°K, the copper and zinc atoms in essentially equal number being distributed largely at random over the points of a body-centered cubic lattice, or an ordered structure, below 300°K, with copper and zinc at the positions 000 and, respectively, of the cubic unit. Moreover, the physical properties of /3-brass are not those that indicate a filled zone structure. 

These authors further described the synthesis and resolution (by chiral HPLC) of a new C2-symmetric planar-chiral bipyridine ligand [43] (see structure 35 in Scheme 18). They obtained an X-ray crystal structure of the corresponding copper complex proving a bidentate complexation. This system led to high diastereo- (up to 94%) and enantioselectivity (up to 94%) in the... 

Suga and Ibata [44] prepared binaphtyldiimine derivatives 36 (Scheme 19) affording 98% ee as best selectivity for the transformation of 1,1-diphenyl-ethylene with Z-menthyl diazoacetate. The authors performed PM3 calculations and proposed an optimized structure of the copper complex to explain the high enantioselectivity observed with 1,1-disubstituted olefins. 

The reaction used to test these solid catalysts was the aziridination of styrene with AT-tosyliminophenyliodinane (Phi = NTos) (Scheme 10). In most cases, enantioselectivities were low or moderate (up to 60% ee). The loss of enantioselectivity on changing from ligand 11a to ligand 12 was attributed to the fact that ligand 12 is too big for the copper complex to be accommodated into the zeolite supercages. Further studies carried out with hgands 11a and 11b [62] demonstrated that the reaction is more enantioselective with the supported catalyst (82% ee with 11a and 77% ee with 11b) than in solution (54% ee with 11a and 31% ee with 11b). This trend supports the confinement effect of the zeolite structure on the stereoselectivity of the reaction. 

This group showed that isolable silver(I) diaminocarbene complexes can be use in situ instead of free carbenes, to generate the copper carbene complex. The silver salts that precipitates during the formation of the copper complex have not any negative effect on the conversion. This method is advantageous since most of the silver complexes are isolable, air-stable and easily obtained by treatment of the corresponding imidazohnium salt by 0.5 equiv of silver oxide (Scheme 53). The solid structure of 78 was analyzed by X-ray diffraction. 

In contrast to the well-established methods for identifying and quantifying naturally occurring chlorophylls, very few reports concern quantitative analysis of chlorophyllin copper complexes in color additives and in foodstuffs. Analytical methods proposed are based on spectral properties, elemental analysis, chromatographic separation, and molecular structure elucidation or a combination of these procedures. 

The Ag complex 121 in the presence of CuCl H O or CuCOTO CgHg catalyses the allylic alkylations of allyl phosphates by diaUcylzinc reagents with high enantiose-lectivity (Scheme 2.23). A copper complex 122 which is the precursor to the catalytic species was also isolated and structurally characterised (Figs. 2.21 and 2.22) [99]. 

All three of the copper basal plane surfaces show complex structural changes as the surface concentration of sulfur is changed. With the Cu(lll) surface, Domange and Oudar3 reported a (f3 x f3) R30° structure after exposure to H2S at room temperature. On further exposure, this phase was replaced by a If x fl) A19 structure via a complex phase . The latter has been identified...

In their pursuit of determining solution structures of dinuclear copper complexes as carried out for complex (29) (Section 6.6.3.1.1). Comba reported complex (431) (r = 0.02 Cu-Cu 6.9 A, comparable with the values of 7.2 A predicted by molecular mechanics calculations and 6.7 A obtained from the simulated EPR spectrum).54 They reported369 complexes (432) (square planar) and (433) (Cu-Cu 3.35 A) as well. As part of studying magnetic properties of mono-, di-, and... 

There are bi-, tri-, and tetradentate formazan dyes7 but only the tetradentate copper complex formazan dyes have found use as commercial products. The dye Cl Reactive Blue 160, of generic structure (41), is a representative example. Because of the intensity of their colors, the metal complex formazan dyes have also found application in analysis. Thus, the dye (42) detects zinc at a concentration of 1 part in 50 million.31...
