Thirty years on : The dinuclear copper peroxido complex [(tet b)CuO 2 Cu(tet b)] 2+ has been structurally characterized (see picture: Cu yellow, O red, N pink; tet b= rac ‐5,5,7,12,12,14‐hexamethyl‐1,4,8,11‐tetraazacyclotetradecane). This complex is quite persistent in solution at room temperature and is the first example of a structurally characterized copper dioxygen adduct complex with a macrocyclic ligand based on earlier studies by Valentine et al.
