Reaktive Kupfer- Bis(pyrazolyl)methan-Spezies für die Katalyse (B10#)

• Subject Area: Inorganic Molecular Chemistry - Synthesis and Characterisation
• Term: from 2013 to 2015
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 27112786

The most important goal of this project is the comprehensive exploration of the organometallic, coordination and bioinorganic capability of substrate activation of novel copper bis(pyrazolyl)methane complexes. The reactions are monitored time-resolved via UV/Vis spectroscopy. The starting and substrate complexes will be characterised via cyclic voltammetry, structural and theoretical studies. Special emphasis lies on the elucidation of the reaction mechanisms which have not been clarified up to now in most cases.
