No doubt : The high‐quality crystal structure of [Cu(TMG 3 tren)(O 2 )]SbF 6 (see picture) presents the first unambiguous characterization of a bioinorganic compound in which a dioxygen molecule coordinates end‐on to a Cu I ion. This species, which is best described as a superoxo copper(II) complex, serves as a model complex for initially formed Cu–O 2 adducts present in a variety of active sites of copper enzymes.
