Stepwise oxidative addition of copper(I) complexes to form copper(III) species via single electron transfer (SET) events has been widely proposed in copper catalysis. However, direct observation and detailed investigation these fundamental steps remain elusive owing largely the typically slow rate instability species. We report herein a novel aryl-radical-enabled stepwise pathway that allows for formation well-defined alkyl–CuIII from CuI complexes. The process is enabled by SET an aryl diazonium salt CuII radical.

Despite the recent advancements of Cu catalysis for cross-coupling alkyl electrophiles and frequently proposed involvement alkyl-Cu(III) complexes in such reactions, little is known about reactivity these high-valent complexes. Specifically, although reversible interconversion between an alkyl-CuIII complex radical/CuII pair has been catalysis, direct observation steps well-defined CuIII remains elusive. In this study, we report synthesis investigation complexes, which exclusively undergo a Cu-C homolysis pathway to generate radicals CuII species. Kinetic studies suggest bond dissociation energy 28.6 kcal/mol CuIII-C bonds. Moreover, four-coordinate could be converted solvated alkyl-CuIII-(CF3)2, undergoes highly efficient C-CF3 bond-forming reductive elimination even at low temperatures (-4 °C). These results provide strong support recombination with form species, elusive step that Cu-catalyzed mechanisms. Furthermore, our work demonstrated significantly influenced by subtle changes coordination environment. Lastly, reactive neutral alkyl-CuIII-(CF3)2 species (or weakly bound solvent molecules) suggests they might true intermediates many trifluoromethylation reactions.

Copper-catalyzed coupling reactions of alkyl halides are believed to prominently involve copper(II) species and radicals as pivotal intermediates, with their exact interaction mechanism being the subject considerable debate. In this study, a visible light-responsive fluoroalkylcopper(III) complex, [(terpy)Cu(CF3)2(CH2CO2tBu)] Trans-1, was designed explore mechanism. Upon exposure blue LED irradiation, Trans-1 undergoes copper–carbon bond homolysis, generating Cu(II) carbon-centered radicals, where radical then recombines intermediate, resulting in formation Cis-1, Cis isomer Trans-1. Beyond this, well-defined fluoroalkylcopper(II) intermediate ligated sterically hindered ligand isolated underwent full characterization electronic structure studies. The collective experimental, computational, spectroscopic findings work strongly suggest that organocopper(II) engages via an "oxidative substitution" mechanism, which is likely operational pathway for copper-catalyzed C–H trifluoromethylation reactions.
