A longstanding research goal has been to understand the nature and role of copper–oxygen
intermediates within copper-containing enzymes and abiological catalysts. Synthetic …

Copper is emerging as a viable catalytic metal for cross-coupling reactions to construct
carbon–carbon (C–C) bonds. Recent revelations that Cu-catalysts can execute with high …

This thoroughly revised and updated edition of one of the classics of kinetics text books
continues the successful concept of the 1974 edition: In its first part, a simplified approach to …

Electrochemical oxidation represents an environmentally friendly solution to conventional
methods that require caustic stoichiometric chemical oxidants. However, C–H …

Seventeen Cu complexes with formal oxidation states ranging from CuI to CuIII are
investigated through the use of multiedge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and density …

Organometallic CuIII species have been invoked in many copper-catalyzed reactions, but
until recently, experimental evidences were lacking. The advent of new spectroscopic …

Well over a decade ago, two reviews were contributed to the Organic Reactions series
covering substitution and conjugate addition reactions in organocopper chemistry. Their …

Recent advances in the study of the oxygen evolving complex (OEC) of photosystem II (PSII)
include structural information attained from several X-ray crystallographic (XRD) and …

Carbon–carbon bond-forming reductive elimination from elusive organocopper (III)
complexes has been considered the key step in many copper-catalyzed and organocuprate …

Organocopper (III) species were generally considered as the key intermediates in a variety
of copper-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, aerobic oxidations, as well as enzyme …
