“…The two isosbestic points at 581 and 785 nm indicate the presence of only two absorbing species in solution. These marked changes are consistent with previously observed UV/Vis spectral changes upon titration of dinuclear copper(II) complexes with tetrachlorocatechol [2,28,29] and indicate binding of the catechol to the complex.…”

“…Usually, the catecholase activity of model complexes is largely attributed to the distance Cu … Cu, but other effects such as redox potentials, neighboring groups, and the individual coordination spheres can play important roles. 66 For complexes 1 and 2, the Cu … Cu distances are very similar (Table 2) and may not be the reason for their different activities. Since the first step in the proposed mechanism is the oxidation of one substrate molecule coupled to a two-electron reduction of …”

“…Kinetic parameters for complexes 1 and 2 the active site, 67 it was expected that complex 1 presented higher activity than complex 2, which has a more negative reduction potential, but this kind of correlation has been questioned. 66 The non-reversibility shown in the voltammograms of complex 1 indicates that, after reduction, the complex integrity is not maintained in solution and this can be a reason of its lower reactivity. On the other hand, the reversibility shown by complex 2 at high scan rates shows that this complex does not decompose as fast as complex 1 after reduction, leading to its higher reactivity.…”

“…observed from Cu 4 L 4 is comparable to those with moderate to high catecholase activities. [8][9][10][11][12][13][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41] It is noticeable that the four copper ions are non-coupled in Cu 4 L 4 whereas most model complexes with high catecholase activities are di-or tri-nuclear copper …”
