We wondered, therefore, if catalytic loadings of copper(II) salts might be used in these reactions by adding a secondary terminal oxidant to turn over the intermediate copper(I

We describe herein the results of this investigation, which has led to the identification of a tandem photoredox copper(II) catalytic system for the net-oxidative difunctionalization of alkenes.

- stable towards aqueous conditions, and the procedures can hardly be modulated according to specific requirements. As for mechanistic investigations, the nature of the catalytically active copper(I) complex is unknown and there is scarcely any chance to rationally explain the results of kinetic studies

This is one of the few examples, where the copper(I) (pre-)catalyst complex is molecularly defined and characterized. As triazoles are more polar than the

- , as these appear in a diagnostic region. In T, up to eight singlets are expected for the four methoxy groups due to their constitutional differences and the occurrence of two diastereomers (syn and anti). Diastereomers form as a result of two stereogenic heteroleptic copper(I) complex motifs [Cu(3)(4
- VSCE and −0.21 VSCE, respectively [8]. In T, only one type of copper(I) complex is present. As two values were expected for the two diastereomers, the broad peak was deconvoluted for two copper(I) oxidation waves (Figure 4) resulting in two values at +0.59 and +0.64 VSCE. The values agree with those
- reported for a similar copper(I) complex (+0.61 and +0.67 VSCE) in a recently reported supramolecular trapezoid [8]. The population of the two diastereomers as determined from the deconvoluted DPV spectrum (Supporting Information File 1) was roughly 3:1, in full agreement with the ratio derived from 1H NMR
