Abstract
Di-μ-hydroxo-bridged di-copper(II) complexes in aprotic media exhibit chemical properties in the oxidation reaction by molecular oxygen. Three oxidation reactions can occur without a base: oxidation of aldehydes into the corresponding acids, oxidative degradation of some carbonyl compounds into their lower homologues, and oxidative dimerisation of phenol. With a base a fourth reaction is observed: the dehydrogenation of alcohols into carbonyl compounds. Ligands, solvent and substrate structure effects are discussed.
