Published: April 2004

Quasireversible adducts of dioxygen with Cu(I) complexes are of interest as models for dioxygen transport proteins, for oxygen-dependent copper redox enzymes, and for low-molecular oxidation and oxygenation catalysts. Depending on ligand denticity and structural factors dioxygen binds in various geometries and metal:O2 ratios to the reduced copper centers. Kinetic investigations produce detailed mechanistic insight into the nature of coppers-dioxygen interaction. Heteronuclear FeO2Cu complexes with stabilities far beyond statistical expectation are obtained when 1:1 mixtures of suitable copper(I) complexes and appropriate Fe(II) porphyrins are treated with O2.

A novel copper-niobium oxyfluoride, {[Cu₂(C₁₀H₇N₂O)₂][NbOF₄]}n, has been synthesized by a hydrothermal method and characterized by elemental analysis, EDS, IR, XPS and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The structural unit consists of one C₂-symmetric [NbOF₄]⁻ anion and one centrosymmetric coordinated [Cu₂(obpy)₂]⁺ cation (obpy is 2,2'-bipyridin-6-olate). In the [NbOF₄]⁻ anion, each NbV metal centre is five-coordinated by four F atoms and one O atom in the first coordination shell, forming a square-pyramidal coordination geometry.
