Abstract:Synthetic reaction of a Cu(II) complex containing aniline moiety (Cu(atpa)) (atpa = N‐(anthracen‐9‐ylmethyl)‐2‐((bis(pyridin‐2‐ylmethyl)amino) with an excess Cu(ClO4)2 in CH3CN produced an unusual species, which was not corresponding to the original ligand atpa, Cu(ClO4)2 nor [Cu(atpa)]2+. It was proposed that the new species was generated via electron transfer between aniline‐containing N‐based ligand and Cu(ClO4)2, resulting in oxidative ligand cleavage. Monitoring the reaction of Cu(atpa) with Cu(ClO4)2 for… Show more
