Intermediates in Reactions of Copper(I) Complexes with N-Oxides: From Formation of Stable Adducts to Oxo Transfer

摘要

Reactions of Cu(I) complexes of bidentate N-donor supporting ligands with pyridine- and trimethylamine-N-oxides or PhIO were explored. Key results include the identification of novel Cu(I)-N-oxide adducts, aryl substituent hydroxylation, and bis(μ-oxo)dicopper complex formation via a route involving oxo transfer.
