Abstract

(5) In some of the earlier reports a preformed solution of a (trifluoromefhyl) copper or copper complex solution was suggested or claimed, however, no spectroscopic evidence or data were pre~ ented.~'.'(6) The organcapper species are shown as monomeric for simplicity. The extent and nature of aggregation of these species are not known. The chemical shift of these (trifluoromethy1) copper reagents is consistent with other previously reported ...
