Mesitylcopper reacts with flavonol (flaH) in the presence of 1,3-bis(2-pyridylimino)isoindoline (indH) to yield the diamagnetic complex Cu(I)(fla)(indH), which on reaction with molecular oxygen undergoes oxidative splitting of the C2 - C3 bond of the pyranone ring of the flavonolate ligand to give Cu(I)(indH)(O-bs) (O-bs = O-benzoylsalicylate) (orthorhombic, P1, a = 8.048(7) A, b = 8.969(9) A, c = 19.240(2) A, α = 85.69°, β = 80.24(7)°, γ = 77.87(7)°, V = 1337(2) A3, Z = 2) and carbon monoxide. The reaction of [Cu(I)(CH3CN)4]ClO4, flaH, and indH with dioxygen at room temperature affords the paramagnetic complex [Cu(II)(fla)(indH)]ClO4 (υ = 2.10 υ(B)), and after elimination of HClO4, Cu(II)(fla)(ind) (orthorhombic, P(bca,) a = 8.888(2) A, b = 19.169(7) A, c = 33.614(10) A, α = β = γ = 90°, V = 5727(3) A3, Z = 8) with υ = 1.86 υ(B) is formed. The latter undergoes cleavage of the pyranone ring on oxygenation at 80 °C to give Cu(II)(ind)(O-bs) (υ = 1.87 υ(B), v(CO) = 1742 cm-1, and v(CO2) = 1581, 1387 cm-1) and carbon monoxide. Cu(II)(fla)(ind) and [Cu(II)(fla)(indH)]ClO4 serve as good catalysts for the oxygenation of flavonol to O-benzoylsalicylic acid.
