Characterization of a Macrocyclic end-on Peroxido Copper Complex

 

Thirty years on: The dinuclear copper peroxido complex [(tet b)CuO₂Cu(tet b)]²⁺ has been structurally characterized (see picture: Cu yellow, O red, N pink; tet b=rac-5,5,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane). This complex is quite persistent in solution at room temperature and is the first example of a structurally characterized copper dioxygen adduct complex with a macrocyclic ligand based on earlier studies by Valentine et al.

Simplifying Iron–Phosphine Catalysts for Cross-Coupling Reactions

Any old iron? Iron catalysts based on the widely available diphosphine ligand bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane have not previously fared particularly well in iron-catalyzed cross-coupling processes. However, this turns out not to be due to any inherently poor performance associated with the ligand, but rather the need to form a bis-chelate complex, either before or during the formation of an active Fe^I species.

Efficient hydrogen-evolving catalysts comprising readily available elements are needed if hydrogen is to be adopted as a clean alternative to fossil fuels. Now, a diimine–dioxime cobalt complex has been covalently attached to a carbon nanotube electrode to yield an active and robust electrocatalyst for hydrogen generation (55,000 turnovers in seven hours) from aqueous solutions.

Voltammetry and O2 tolerance of hydrogenase mutants [Biochemistry]

Voltammetry and O2 tolerance of hydrogenase mutants [Biochemistry]: Nickel-containing hydrogenases, the biological catalysts of oxidation and production, reversibly inactivate under anaerobic, oxidizing conditions. We aim at understanding the mechanism of (in)activation and what determines its kinetics, because there is a correlation between fast reductive reactivation and oxygen tolerance, a property of some hydrogenases that is very desirable...
