Abstract

Chemistry Chemistry, Inorganic & Nuclear Physical Sciences Science & Technology
Elusive Cu(III) organometallic complexes are extremely attractive intermediates in catalysis. Using a computational approach, we show that C-X activation by some Cu(I) complexes to yield Cu(III) intermediates is actually feasible, although ligands of appropriate structure must be used.
