(Chemical Equation Presented) Water is not only the solvent but also the sole oxygen source in the smooth and efficient oxidation of organic compounds catalyzed by a RuII-pyridylamine-aqua complex with CeIV as the oxidant. An intermediate-spin RuIV-oxo complex is formed as the reactive species (see scheme; Sub = substrate). This catalytic system is durable and able to gain high turnover numbers for various substrates.
Copper Complexation by Isatin β-Thiosemicarbazones in Aqueous Solution

The reactions in aqueous solution between cupric ion and water-soluble derivatives of the antiviral drug methisazone (1-methylisatin β-thiosemicarbazone, mibt) have been investigated.Alkalimetric titrations and n.m.r. experiments showed that 5-sulfonatoisatin β-thiosemicarbazone, sibt (3), its 1-methyl derivative, msibt (4), and also p-sulfonatobenzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone, sbat (5), reduce cupric ion and form copper(I) complexes.Stability constants were obtained from measurements of pH and pCu+ on solutions of copper(II) nitrate and excess ligand (I = 0.15 M KNO3, at 37 deg).The pCu+ values were obtained with an ORION solid state copper electrode.At pH 6-7.5 and moderate excess of ligand, polymeric complexes with an approximate 1:1 copper(I)-to-ligand ratio are formed: CunLn or CunLn+1H with n > 6.Monomeric complexes CuL23- predominate at higher pH and in the presence of a more than twentyfold excess of ligand.The stability constants log β2 are 17.9 for sibt, 18.5 for msibt and 19.8 for sbat.At physiological pH (7.4), the order of stability is msibt > sibt sbat, with conditional stability constants log β2' = 16.2, 15.7 and 13.4, respectively.Comparison with penicillamine shows that some in vivo complexation of copper(I) by methisazone may be possible.On the other hand, a histidinato-copper(II) complex is formed in the presence of histidine.
