All change : The stable, diamagnetic, trigonal‐bipyramidal Cu III complex (see picture) arising from one‐electron oxidation of a Cu II complex undergoes conversion into a paramagnetic octahedral Cu III complex upon addition of Cl − ions. Characterization of the complexes and density functional calculations indicate that the initial one‐electron oxidation is metal‐ rather than ligand‐centered.
