title: Catalytic promiscuity in biomimetic systems: catecholase-like activity, phosphatase-like activity, and hydrolytic DNA cleavage promoted by a new dicopper(II) hydroxo-bridged complex.
abstract: Presented in this Communication are the structure, physicochemical properties, and catalytic promiscuity of a new dinuclear CuII(mu-OH)CuII complex containing a novel N,O-donor symmetric dinucleating ligand.
