A methylene-bridged 1-hydroxybenzotriazole derived ligand L [L = 1, 3-bis(benzotriazol-1-yl)-1,3-dioxapropane] has been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic and structural methods. Reaction of L with two different copper(II) halides [CuX(2); X = Br, Cl] in an identical condition yields two different compounds of similar compositions, {[Cu(μ-Br)(Br)(μ-L)](2)}(n)·2nH(2)O (1) and {[Cu(μ-Cl)(Cl)(μ-L)](2)}(n)·2nH(2)O (2), both being characterized by various physicochemical techniques. Single crystal X-ray studies reveal that they appear as 2D coordination polymers with similar bridging fashion of L. Low temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements reveal antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic behaviors for 1 and 2 with magnetic coupling constants J = -15.2 and +1.7 cm(-1), which are in a reasonable agreement with their calculated values (J = -9.79 and +0.68 cm(-1) respectively, for 1 and 2). The role of bridging halides in the structure and magnetic properties of the complexes are investigated, and a possible magneto-structural correlation has been established. Influence of spin density of bridging halides on the magnitude of coupling constants has been discussed with the help of density functional theory (DFT) calculations.

Anilines are ubiquitous in bio-active compounds and their synthesis can be achieved via metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions involving aryl halides. We describe an unusual, yet simple, Cu-catalyzed system for the amination of aryl chlorides in pure aqueous ammonia with 2.5 mol % catalyst loading under non-inert conditions.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the role of copper(II) species and alkyl radicals in copper-catalyzed coupling reactions of alkyl halides by exploring a new fluoroalkylcopper(III) complex using blue LED light.
- The complex undergoes a process that generates Cu(II) and carbon-centered radicals, which then recombine to form a Cis isomer, shedding light on the mechanistic pathway.
- Findings suggest that the interaction between organocopper(II) and carbon-centered radicals predominantly follows an "oxidative substitution" mechanism, relevant for copper-catalyzed C-H bond trifluoromethylation reactions.
Copper-Catalyzed C-C Cross-Couplings of Tertiary Alkyl Halides with Anilines Enabled by Cyclopropenimine-Based Ligands.

Catalytic cross-couplings of tertiary alkyl electrophiles with carbon nucleophiles offer a powerful platform for constructing quaternary carbon centers, which are prevalent in bioactive molecules. However, these reactions remain underdeveloped primarily because of steric challenges that impede efficient bond formation. Herein, we describe the copper-catalyzed synthesis of such centers through the C()-C() bond-forming reaction between tertiary alkyl halides and arene rings of aniline derivatives, enabled by the strategic implementation of bidentate bis(cyclopropenimine) ligands.

Copper complexes are widely used in the synthesis of fine chemicals and materials to catalyze couplings of heteroatom nucleophiles with aryl halides. We show that cross-couplings catalyzed by some of the most active catalysts occur by a mechanism not previously considered. Copper(II) [Cu(II)] complexes of oxalamide ligands catalyze Ullmann coupling to form the C-O bond in aryl ethers by concerted oxidative addition of an aryl halide to Cu(II) to form a high-valent species that is stabilized by radical character on the oxalamide ligand.

In this study, a newly-designed copper(ii) complex of metformin and l-proline which was immobilized on FeO MNPs was developed. The structure of the catalyst platform was fully characterized using spectroscopic analyses. Moreover, the catalytic activity of [FeO@Cu(ii)(Met)(Pro-H)] was investigated in a one-pot synthesis of a variety of functionalized ethers in reasonable to excellent yields through Ullman reaction in an aqueous environment using various aryl halides, phenol, and CsCO and without using any external Cu-reducing agents.
