A complex of a binucleating macrocyclic ligand comprising a [Cu(II)(μ-OH)Na](2+) core reacts with CuI in THF/CH3CN to yield a novel species with a deprotonated 2-hydroxytetrahydrofuran (THF-2-ol) bridging between Cu(II) and Na(I) ions. The complexes were characterized by X-ray crystallography, electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. (18)O-labeling studies support incorporation of the O atom from μ-OH into the coordinated THF-2-ol ligand. ...[more]
