AI Article Synopsis
- - A quadridentate ligand, known as H(2)L, attaches to a copper(I) ion to create a salt called [Cu(I)(H(2)L)]BF(4).
- - This salt then undergoes oxidation when exposed to air, leading to the formation of a new diamagnetic salt, [Cu(II)L˙(-)]BF(4).
- - The resulting π-radical anion, L˙(-), is derived from the original ligand H(2)L by losing one electron and gaining two protons.
Article Abstract
Quadridentate ligand H(2)L binds Cu(I) to form salt [Cu(I)(H(2)L)]BF(4) which undergoes aerial oxidation in solution with isolation of the diamagnetic salt [Cu(II)L˙(-)]BF(4) where π-radical anion L˙(-) is the (1e(-), 2H(+)) oxidation product of H(2)L.
