| The synthesis and chemistry of homobinuclear transition metal complexes has been explored in three areas: carbon dioxide fixation, a uniquely bridged tetracopper(II) oxalate complex, and a monohydroxide bridged dicopper(II) complex as a model of hemocyanin and tyrosinase.;Two macrocycles have been synthesized for these studies. One is 1,4,7,13,16,19-hexaazacyclotetracosane (L;The metal salts of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Cu(I), Zn(II), Er(III), and Rh(I) were added to L;A tetracopper(II) complex with the formulation (Cu;Also, a monohydroxide bridged dicopper(II) complex has been synthesized with the formulation (Cu... |
