Abstract

Chemical reduction of a tripodal Cu(II)-F complex containing pendent hydroxyl groups results in the partial dissociation of a F(-) ligand from Cu. The resulting Cu(I) complex is characterized as containing an outer sphere F(-) anion 'captured' by hydrogen bonds. The pendent hydroxyl groups were found to be crucial for reductive stability.
