Abstract
Copper-dioxygen (CuO2) adducts are frequently proposed as intermediates in enzymes, yet their electronic and vibrational structures have not always been understood. [Cu(eta1-O2)TMG3tren]+ (TMG3tren = 1,1,1-tris{2-[N2-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylguanidino)]ethyl}amine) features end-on (eta1) O2 coordination in the solid state. Described here is an investigation of the compound's solution properties by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, density functional calculations, and oxygen isotope effects. The study yields two major findings. First, [Cu(eta1-O2)TMG3tren]+ is paramagnetic due to a triplet electronic structure; this is in contrast to other copper compounds where O2 is bound in a side-on manner. Second, the oxygen equilibrium isotope effect upon O2 binding to copper(I) (18O EIE [triple bond] K(16O16O)/K(16O18O) = 1.0148 +/- 0.0012) is significantly larger than those determined for iron and cobalt eta1-O2 adducts. This result is suggested to reflect greater ionic (CuII-O2-I) character within the valence bond description. A revised interpretation of the physical origins of the 18O EIEs upon O2 binding to redox metals is also advanced along with experimental data that should be used as benchmarks for interpreting 18O kinetic isotope effects upon enzyme reactions.

Abstract
The geometric and electronic structures of two mononuclear CuO2 complexes, [Cu(O2){HB(3-Ad-5-(i)Prpz)3}] (1) and [Cu(O2)(beta-diketiminate)] (2), have been evaluated using Cu K- and L-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) studies in combination with valence bond configuration interaction (VBCI) simulations and spin-unrestricted broken symmetry density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Cu K- and L-edge XAS data indicate the Cu(II) and Cu(III) nature of 1 and 2, respectively. The total integrated intensity under the L-edges shows that the 's in 1 and 2 contain 20% and 28% Cu character, respectively, indicative of very covalent ground states in both complexes, although more so in 1. Two-state VBCI simulations also indicate that the ground state in 2 has more Cu (/3d8) character. DFT calculations show that the in both complexes is dominated by O2(n-) character, although the O2(n-) character is higher in 1. It is shown that the ligand L plays an important role in modulating Cu-O2 bonding in these LCuO2 systems and tunes the ground states of 1 and 2 to have dominant Cu(II)-superoxide-like and Cu(III)-peroxide-like character, respectively. The contributions of ligand field (LF) and the charge on the absorbing atom in the molecule (Q(mol)M) to L- and K-edge energy shifts are evaluated using DFT and time-dependent DFT calculations. It is found that LF makes a dominant contribution to the edge energy shift, while the effect of Q(mol)M is minor. The charge on the Cu in the Cu(III) complex is found to be similar to that in Cu(II) complexes, which indicates a much stronger interaction with the ligand, leading to extensive charge transfer.

Abstract
Using interwoven experimental and theoretical methods, detailed studies of several structurally defined 1:1 Cu-O 2 complexes have provided important fundamental chemical information useful for understanding the nature of intermediates involved in aerobic oxidations in synthetic and enzymatic copper-mediated catalysis. In particular, these studies have shed new light on the factors that influence the mode of O 2 coordination (end-on vs side-on) and the electronic structure, which can vary between Cu(II)-superoxo and Cu(III)-peroxo extremes.

Abstract
Reaction of the known germylene Ge[N(SiMe3)2]2 and a new heterocyclic variant Ge[(NMes)2(CH)2] with [L(Me2)Cu]2 (L(Me2) = the beta-diketiminate derived from 2-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)amino-4-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)imino-2-pentene) yielded novel Cu(I)-Ge(II) complexes L(Me2)Cu-Ge[(NMes)2(CH)2] (1a) and L(Me2)Cu-Ge[N(SiMe3)2]2 (1b), which were characterized by spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. The lability of the Cu(I)-Ge(II) bond in 1a and b was probed by studies of their reactivity with benzil, PPh3, and a N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC). Notably, both complexes are cleaved rapidly by PPh3 and the NHC to yield stable Cu(I) adducts (characterized by X-ray diffraction) and the free germylene. In addition, the complexes are highly reactive with O2 and exhibit chemistry which depends on the bound germylene. Thus, oxygenation of 1a results in scission and formation of thermally unstable L(Me2)CuO2, which subsequently decays to [(L(Me2)Cu)2(mu-O)2], while 1b yields L(Me2)Cu(mu-O)2Ge[N(SiMe3)2]2, a novel heterobimetallic intermediate having a [Cu(III)(mu-O)2Ge(IV)]3+ core. The isolation of the latter species by direct oxygenation of a Cu(I)-Ge(II) precursor represents a new route to heterobimetallic oxidants comprising copper.

Abstract
To assess supporting ligand effects on S-S bond activation, a series of [Cu2(mu-eta2:eta2-S2)]2+ complexes supported by various beta-diketiminate or anilido-imine ligands (L) were synthesized via the reaction of Cu(I) precursors LCu(CH(3)CN) with S8. For the cases where L = beta-diketiminate, the syntheses were complicated by formation of clusters [Cu(SR)]4, where SR represents the ligand functionalized by sulfur at the central methine position. The [Cu2(mu-eta2:eta2-S2)]2+ products were characterized by X-ray crystallography and electronic absorption and resonance Raman spectroscopy. Correlations among the Cu-S, Cu-Cu, and S-S distances and the nu(S-S) values were observed and interpreted within the framework of a previously described bonding picture (Chen, P.; Fujisawa, K.; Helton, M. E.; Karlin, K. D.; Solomon, E. I. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2003, 125, 6394). Comparison of these data to those for other relevant species revealed a remarkable degree of S-S bond activation in the compounds supported by the beta-diketiminate and anilido-imine ligands, which through strong electron donation increase backbonding from the copper ions into the S-S sigma* orbital and cause S-S bond weakening. Reactions of one of the complexes supported by an anilido-imine ligand with PPh(3) and xylyl isocyanide were explored, revealing facile transfer of sulfur to PPh(3) but only displacement of sulfur to yield a LCu(I)-CNAr (Ar = xylyl) complex with the isocyanide.

Abstract
Copper-oxygen complexes supported by beta-diketiminate and anilido-imine ligands have recently been reported (Aboelella et al., J Am Chem Soc 2004, 126, 16896; Reynolds et al., Inorg Chem 2005, 44, 6989) as potential biomimetic models for dopamine beta-monooxygenase (DbetaM) and peptidylglycine alpha-hydroxylating monooxygenase (PHM). However, in contrast to the enzymatic systems, these complexes fail to exhibit C--H hydroxylation activity (Reynolds et al., Chem Commun 2005, 2014). Quantum chemical characterization of the 1:1 Cu-O(2) model adducts and related species (Cu(III)-hydroperoxide, Cu(III)-oxo, and Cu(III)-hydroxide) indicates that the 1:1 Cu-O(2) adducts are unreactive toward substrates because of the weakness of the O--H bond that would be formed upon hydrogen-atom abstraction. This in turn is ascribed to the 1:1 adducts having both low reduction potentials and basicities. Cu(III)-oxo species on the other hand, determined to be intermediate between Cu(III)-oxo and Cu(II)-oxyl in character, are shown to be far more reactive toward substrates. Based on these results, design strategies for new DbetaM and PHM biomimetic ligands are proposed: new ligands should be made less electron rich so as to favor end-on dioxygen coordination in the 1:1 Cu-O(2) adducts. Comparison of the relative reactivities of the various copper-oxygen complexes as hydroxylating agents provides support for a Cu(II)-superoxide species as the intermediate responsible for substrate hydroxylation in DbetaM and PHM, and suggests that a Cu(III)-oxo intermediate would be competent in this process as well.

Abstract
Reaction of the copper(I) beta-diketiminate {[Me3NN]Cu}2(mu-toluene) with the aryl azide N3Ar (Ar = 3,5-Me2C6H3) in toluene results in immediate effervescence and formation of the dicopper nitrene {[Me3NN]Cu}2(mu-NAr) (2) in 77% yield. The X-ray structure of 2 shows nearly symmetric bonding of the nitrene to two Cu centers separated by 2.911(1) A with Cu-N distances of 1.794(5) and 1.808(5) A along with a Cu-N-Cu angle of 107.8(2) degrees . This structure is conceptually related to the dicopper carbenes {[MexNN]Cu}2(mu-CPh2) (x = 2 or 3) (Dai, X.; Warren J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2004, 126, 10085. Badiei, Y. M.; Warren J. Organomet. Chem. 2005, 690, 5989.) which exhibit shorter Cu-Cu distances (2.4635(7) or 2.485(1) A) and acute Cu-C-Cu angles (79.51(14) or 80.1(2) degrees ). Addition of the Cu(I) anilidoimine {[Me2AI]Cu}2 (prepared from CuOtBu and the aniline-imine H[Me2AI] in 77% yield) to a benzene-d6 solution of 2 results in the formation of two new anilidoimine complexes {[Me2AI]Cu(mu- NAr)Cu[Me3NN] (5) and {[Me2AI]Cu}2(mu-NAr) (6) as well as [Me3NN]Cu(benzene) over 3 h. These observations are consistent with the slow dissociation of a [Me3NN]Cu fragment from 2 to generate the transient terminal nitrenes [Me3NN]Cu=NAr and [Me2AI]Cu=NAr quickly trapped by the [Me2AI]Cu fragment to form the new unsymmetrical and symmetrical dicopper nitrenes 5 and 6. Preliminary reactivity studies indicate electrophilic reactivity at the nitrene moiety. Dicopper nitrene 2 reacts with 10 equiv PMe3 and CNtBu to give ArN=PMe3 and ArN=C=NtBu in 94% and 92% yields, respectively, with concomitant formation of [Me3NN]Cu(L) (L = PMe3 and CNtBu). Reaction between 2 and 2 equiv PMe3 allows for observation of the structurally characterized Cu(I) phosphaimide [Me3NN]Cu(ArN=PMe3) (7).

Abstract
An "end-on" Ni2+-superoxo adduct has been prepared via two independent synthetic routes and its structure ascertained by spectroscopic and computational methods. The new structure type in nickel coordination chemistry is supported by resonance Raman and EPR spectroscopic features, the former displaying a high frequency nu (O-O) mode (1131 cm-1) consistent with significant superoxo character. The Ni2+-superoxo adduct oxidizes PPh3 to OPPh3 in quantitative yield.

Five Cu(I) complexes [Cu2(ttab)(CH3CN)2][BF4]2 (1), [Cu(2)(ttab)(PPh3)2][BF4]2 (2), [Cu2(ttab)I2] (3), [Cu2(ttab)(I3)2] (4), and [Cu2(ttab)(I)BF4]n (5) with 1,2,4,5-tetra(7-azaindolyl)benzene (ttab) have been synthesized and characterized. The structures of compound 1, 2, 4, and 5 have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses, which established that 1, 2, and 4 are discrete dinuclear Cu2 compounds while compound 5 is a 1D coordination polymer with the I- ligand bridging two dinuclear Cu2 units. The ttab ligand in all four complexes adopts a 1,3-chelation mode. The Cu(I) center in all complexes is three-coordinate. Close contact between the Cu(I) center and the benzene ring in the ttab ligand was observed in all four structures, which is believed to play a role in stabilizing the three-coordinate geometry of the Cu(I) center. The crystals of 1, 2, and 5 contain channels in the lattice that host solvent molecules such as CH2Cl2 and toluene. Fluorescent measurements established that, in solution, compounds 1-3 display weak blue luminescence which originates from the ttab but is significantly red-shifted and has a much lower emission intensity, compared to the free ttab ligand. The application of compound 1 in C-N cross-coupling reactions was examined by using the reaction of phenyl halides with imidazole as a model system. For the reaction with phenyl iodide, 1 was found to be as effective a catalyst as the CuI/1,10-phenanthroline system. For the reaction with phenyl bromide, 1 is less effective than the CuI/1,10-phenanthroline system. Compound 1 reacts with O2 gas, as established by UV-vis spectra, but the oxidized products have not been characterized.

Abstract
There have been significant advances in the understanding of the dioxygen-activation chemistry of mononuclear copper monooxygenases such as peptidylglycine alpha-amidating monooxygenase and dopamine beta-monooxygenase (DbetaM). Recent structural and spectroscopic studies on a series of biomimetic model compounds have provided new and valuable insights into the key reactive intermediates involved in the dioxygen processing at the mononuclear copper reaction centers in biological systems.

Abstract
The activation of dioxygen by dopamine beta-monooxygenase (DbetaM) and peptidylglycine alpha-hydroxylating monooxygenase (PHM) is postulated to occur at a copper site ligated by two histidine imidazoles and a methionine thioether, which is unusual because such thioether ligation is not present in other O2-activating copper proteins. To assess the possible role of the thioether ligand in O2 activation by DbetaM and PHM, two new ligands comprising beta-diketiminates with thioether substituents were synthesized and Cu(I) and Cu(II) complexes were isolated. The Cu(II) compounds are monomeric and exhibit intramolecular thioether coordination. While the Cu(I) complexes exhibit a multinuclear topology in the solid state, variable-temperature 1H NMR studies implicate equilibria in solution, possibly including monomers with intramolecular thioether coordination that are structurally defined by DFT calculations. Low-temperature oxygenation of solutions of the Cu(I) complexes generates stable 1:1 Cu/O2 adducts, which on the basis of combined experimental and theoretical studies adopt side-on "eta(2)" structures with negligible Cu-thioether bonding and significant peroxo-Cu(III) character. In contrast to previously reported findings with related ligands lacking the thioether group, however (cf., Aboelella; et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2004, 126, 16896), purging the solutions of the thioether-containing adducts with argon results in conversion to bis(mu-oxo)dicopper(III) species. A role for the thioether in promoting loss of O2 from the 1:1 Cu/O2 adduct and facilitating trapping of the resulting Cu(I) complex to yield the bis(mu-oxo) species is proposed, and the possible relevance of this role to that of the methionine in the active sites of DbetaM and PHM is discussed.

Abstract
The mechanism by which [Cu(II)(L)](OTf)2 and [Cu(II)N3(L)](OTf) (L = TEPA: tris(2-pyridylethyl)amine or TMPA: tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine; OTf = trifluoromethanesulfonate) react with superoxide (O2*-) to form [Cu(I)(L)](OTf) and O2 is described. Evidence for a CuO2 intermediate is presented based on stopped-flow experiments and competitive oxygen (18O) kinetic isotope effects on the bimolecular reactions of (16,16)O2*- and (18,16)O2*- ((16,16)k/(18,16)k). The (16,16)k/(18,16)k fall within a narrow range from 0.9836 +/- 0.0043 to 0.9886 +/- 0.0078 for reactions of copper(II) complexes with different coordination geometries and redox potentials that span a 0.67 V range. The results are inconsistent with a mechanism that involves either rate-determining O2*- binding or one-step electron transfer. Rather a mechanism involving formation of a CuO2 intermediate prior to the loss of O2 in the rate-determining step is proposed. Calculations of similar inverse isotope effects, using stretching frequencies of CuO2 adducts generated from copper(I) complexes and O2, suggest that the intermediate has a superoxo structure. The use of 18O isotope effects to relate activated oxygen intermediates in enzymes to those derived from inorganic compounds is discussed.

Abstract
The results of studies performed in the author's laboratory are surveyed, with particular emphasis on demonstrating the value of a multidisciplinary synthetic modeling approach for discovering new and unusual chemistry helpful for understanding the properties of the active sites of copper proteins or assessing the feasibility of mechanistic pathways they might follow during catalysis. The discussion focuses on the progress made to date toward comprehending the nitrite reductase catalytic site and mechanism, the electronic structures of copper thiolate electron transfer centers, the sulfido-bridged "CuZ" site in nitrous oxide reductase, and the processes of dioxygen binding and activation by mono- and dicopper centers in oxidases and oxygenases.

Abstract
The finding that dioxygen binds end-on to the Cu(B) site in the crystal structure of a precatalytic complex of peptidylglycine alpha-hydroxylating monooxygenase has spurred the search for biomimetic model complexes exhibiting the same dioxygen coordination. Recent work has not only indicated that sterically hindered beta-diketiminate ligands (L(1)) could support side-on 1 : 1 Cu-O(2) adducts, but also that an end-on L(1)Cu(THF)O(2) structure occurs as an unstable intermediate in the oxygenation mechanism of the Cu(I) complex. In this work, density functional theory and multireference methods are used to determine the potential of ancillary ligands, X, other than THF to yield thermodynamically stable end-on L(1)CuXO(2) species. A diverse set of ligands X, comprising phosphines, thiophene, cyclic ethers, acetonitrile, para-substituted pyridines, N-heterocyclic carbenes, and ligands bearing hydrogen bond donors, has been considered in order to identify ligand characteristics which energetically favor end-on L(1)CuXO(2) over: a) reversion to the Cu(I) complex and dioxygen, b) isomerization to side-on L(1)CuXO(2), and c) decay to L(1)CuO(2) and X. Ancillary ligands with judiciously chosen degrees and orientation of steric bulk and which bear potential hydrogen bond donors to an end-on bound dioxygen moiety most favor oxygenation of L(1)CuX to yield end-on L(1)CuXO(2). Conversion to the side-on isomer can be deterred through the use of a sufficiently bulky ligand X, such as one that is at least the size of a 5-membered ring. Loss of X to give L(1)CuO(2) can be made prohibitively endergonic by employing ligands X which are highly electron donating and which backbond strongly with and sigma-donate significantly to copper.

Abstract
Copper(i) complexes with the beta-diketiminate ligands HC{C(R)N(Dipp)}{C(R')N(Dipp)}(-) (Dipp = C(6)H(3)(i)Pr(2-)2,6; L(1), R = CF(3), R' = CH(3); L(2), R = R' = CF(3)) have been isolated and fully characterized. On the basis of X-ray structural comparisons with the previously reported complex LCu(CH(3)CN) (L = HC{C(CH(3))N(Dipp)}(2)(-)), the ligand environments at the copper centers in the analogous nitrile adducts with L(1) and L(2) impose similar steric demands. L(1)Cu(CH(3)CN) reacts instantaneously at low temperature with O(2) to form a thermally-unstable intermediate with an isotope-sensitive vibration at 977 cm(-1) (928 cm(-1) with (18)O(2)), in accord with the peroxo O-O stretch associated with side-on coordination for LCu(O(2)). However, L(2)Cu(CH(3)CN) is unreactive toward O(2) even at room temperature. Evaluation of the redox potentials of the nitrile adducts and the CO stretching frequencies of the carbon monoxide adducts revealed an incremental adjustment of the electronic environment at the copper center that correlated with the extent of ligand fluorination. Furthermore, theoretical calculations (DFT, CASPT2) predicted that an increasing extent of Cu(ii)-superoxo character and end-on coordination of the O(2) moiety in the Cu/O(2) product (L(2) > L(1) > L) are accompanied by increases in the free energy for the oxygenation reaction, with L(2) unable to support a Cu/O(2) intermediate. Calculations also predict the 1 : 1 Cu/O(2) adducts to be unreactive with respect to hydrogen atom abstraction from hydrocarbon substrates on the basis of their stability towards both reduction and protonation.

Abstract
On the basis of spectroscopic and crystallographic data for dopamine beta-monooxygenase and peptidylglycine alpha-hydroxylating monooxygenase (PHM), a variety of ligand sets have been used to model the oxygen-binding Cu site in these enzymes. Calculations which employed a combination of density functional and multireference second-order perturbation theory methods provided insights into the optimal ligand set for supporting eta (1) superoxo coordination as seen in a crystal structure of a precatalytic Cu/O(2) complex for PHM (Prigge et al. in Science 304:864-867, 2004). Anionic ligand sets stabilized eta (2) dioxygen coordination and were found to lead to more peroxo-like Cu-O(2) complexes with relatively exergonic binding free energies, suggesting that these adducts may be unreactive towards substrates. Neutral ligand sets (including a set of two imidazoles and a thioether), on the other hand, energetically favored eta (1) dioxygen coordination and exhibited limited dioxygen reduction. Binding free energies for the 1:1 adducts with Cu supported by the neutral ligand sets were also higher than with their anionic counterparts. Deviations between the geometry and energetics of the most analogous models and the PHM crystal structures suggest that the protein environment influences the coordination geometry at the Cu(B) site and increases the lability of water bound to the preoxygenated reduced form. Another implication is that a neutral ligand set will be critical in biomimetic models in order to stabilize eta (1) dioxygen coordination.
