Summary Binding of azide to a series of copper(II) complexes has been investigated by absorption, CD and EPR spectroscopy. Axial binding of azide to Cu(II) can be differentiated from equatorial binding through the lower intensity and lack of optical activity of the LMCT band. The affinity of azide for Cu(II) increases with the overall positive charge of the complex. The preliminary data on thiocyanate binding to Cu(II) seem to agree with the trends observed for the corresponding azide adducts.
