Abstract

The activation of molecular oxygen by low molecular weight synthetic metal complexes is an area of considerable interest [1]. For instance a number of dinuclear copper complexes have been prepared to mimic proteins such as haemocyanin, [2]a tyrosinase [2]b and dopamine-β-hydroxylase, [2]c whose typical features are binding or activation of molecular oxygen. ... For the construction of biomimetic systems which contain multidentate ...
