Diverse reactivity of chelating and xanthine-derived copper-N-heterocyclic carbenes : catalytic activity, electrochemical reactivity and non-innocent behaviour

This thesis involves the preparation and exploration of the reactivity of a variety of organocopper complexes with N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands. The ligands contain either pyridyl/picolyl/allyl N-substituents or a xanthine-derived backbone. Structural modifications were made to the NHC ligan...
