TL;DR: In this article, the linear quadridentate N2S2 donor ligand 1,7-bis(N-methylbenzimidazol-2′-yl)-2,6-dithiaheptane (bmdhp) forms mono-and di-hydrate 1 : 1 copper(II) complexes which are significantly more stable toward autoreduction than those of the non-methylated analogue.

TL;DR: In this paper, a critical review of conversion constants amongst various reference electrodes reported in the literature reveals that in most cases the comparisons of redox potential values are far from accurate, and therefore, caution should be exercised when one is comparing the redox properties of complexes measured in CH 3 CN solutions versus different reference electrodes.

TL;DR: The tetrahedral CuIIS4 center generated by γ-irradiation of single crystals of a thioacetamide complex of CuI has a low value of |A∥| as discussed by the authors, indicating that most type I copper in proteins is tetrahedrally, rather than tetragonally, coordinated.

TL;DR: In this article, condensation of o-phenylenediamines with carboxylic acids and reaction of bifunctional alkyl halides with bifunctionsal nucleophiles are described.

TL;DR: Mechanistic studies show that the rate law is first-order in an iridium precatalyst, and dynamic light scattering studies indicate that catalysis appears to be homogeneous, and a higher pH facilitates oxidation of precatalysts 2 and 3 and their salt analogues 5 and 6.
