Abstract

The reaction of a copper(I) complex with a sterically demanding secondary diamine ligand and O2 yields a tris(μ-hydroxy)tricopper-(II) complex. This complex is a structural model of the proposed native intermediate in multicopper oxidases, with interesting structural, magnetic, and solution properties.
