Redox noninnocent ligands present opportunities to access reactive metal-radical complexes, but competing redox pathways often hinder their selective formation. Here, a pentadentate arylhydroxylamine-containing (ArNHOH) ligand directs copper salts to form a single, well-defined CuII-arylnitrosyl ...

Redox noninnocent ligands enhance the reactivity of the metal they complex, a strategy used by metalloenzymes and in catalysis. Herein, we report a series of copper complexes with the same ligand framework, but with a pendant nitrogen group that spans five different redox states between nitro and amine. Of particular interest is the synthesis of a unprece ...
