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 ...

Primary hydroxylamines, RNHOH, decompose readily in the presence of transition metal ions. We show that this reactivity can be arrested by ligand design via an intramolecular hydrogen bond. Six metal complexes with an intact NHOH group were synthesized and crystallographically characterized. The ...
