Copper(II) complexes of type (NHC)CuX2 (X = OAc, Cl, Br, BF4, NO3) bearing monodentate N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) were prepared by in situ decarboxylation of imidazolium carboxylates as a new synthetic methodology for Cu(II)-NHC complexes. In con... Read More about Imidazolylidene Cu(II) complexes: synthesis using imidazolium carboxylate precursors and structure rearrangement pathways.

Hydrogen peroxide is a cosubstrate for the oxidative cleavage of saccharidic substrates by copper-containing lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs). The rate of reaction of LPMOs with hydrogen peroxide is high, but it is accompanied by rapid in...
