Copper tris methane, complex

The first copper(I) complex of tris(hydroxymethyl)phosphine ((760) tetrahedral) has been reported by Samuelson and co-workers. This group addressed the question of anion-controlled nuclearity and metal-metal distances in copper(I)-bis(diphenylphosphino)methane complexes, and in this endeavor they reported the structures of complexes (761) (Cu-Cu separation 3.005-3.128 A), (762) (Cu-Cu separation 3.165 A) and (763) (tetrahedral Cu-Cu 3.293 A). 6 They synthesized and provided structural evidence of oxy anion- encapsulated copper(I) complexes of this ligand. The complexes (764) (distorted tetrahedral Cu-Cu 3.143 A), (765) (distorted tetrahedral Cu-Cu 3.424A), (766) (distorted trigonal Cu-Cu 3.170A), and (767) (Cu-Cu 3.032-3.077A) were reported. They studied solid-state emission spectra of these complexes.567 During this pursuit they... 

The purpose of the experimental part of the project was a functional test of the theoretical model on real films. We chose films of divalent copper phthalocyanine and dipivaloyl methanate obtained by sedimentation of volatile complexes on the surface of quartz plates. We tried to obtain the most ordered films and for this purpose changed the temperature of the... 

Kodera and co-workers have also reported on copper-mediated C-H bond oxygenation in two tris-pyridyl methane ligands at the methine position when the corresponding Cu(II) complexes are exposed to O2. Labeling...
