Carboxylate Structural Effects on the Properties and Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer Reactivity of [CuO₂CR]²⁺ Cores.

ABSTRACT: A series of complexes {[NBu₄][LCu^II(O₂CR)] (R = -C₆F₅, -C₆H₄(NO₂), -C₆H₅, -C₆H₄(OMe), -CH₃, and -C₆H₂(ⁱPr)₃)} were characterized (with the complex R = -C₆H₄(m-Cl) having been published elsewhere ( Mandal et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2019 , 141 , 17236 )). All feature N,N',N″-coordination of the supporting L^2- ligand, except for the complex with R = -C₆H₂(ⁱPr)₃, which exhibits N,N',O-coordination. For the N,N',N″-bound complexes, redox properties, UV-vis ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) f
