Dramatic tuning of ligand donor properties in (Ttz)CuCO through remote binding of H+ (Ttz = hydrotris(triazolyl)borate)

20 May, 2013 - 02:17

Chem. Commun., 2013, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/C3CC00036B, CommunicationNatalie A. Dixon, Ashley B. McQuarters, Jodi S. Kraus, Jonathan B. Soffer, Nicolai Lehnert, Reinhard Schweitzer-Stenner, Elizabeth T. Papish
Acids change the donor properties of Ttz ligands in copper(I) complexes, and protonation thus creates more electrophilic catalysts for C-H activation.
