Description:
The reaction of Cu(I) bisguanidine complexes with nitric oxide and the formation of intermediate species is monitored via UV/Vis spectroscopy at low temperature with the occurrence of characteristic absorption bands. The origin of the emerging species and their character is substantiated by EPR measurements and DFT studies showing a delocalized {CuNO} 11 radical species. Furthermore, this system is transferred to the SuperFocus mixer setup which allows a rapid mixing and the determination of decay constants at ambient temperatures of the thermally sensitive species. However, these experiments demonstrate the limits of these systems such as the NO saturation in organic solvents and a preferably precise temperature control within the SFM which should be addressed next.
