Minimal structural reorganisation in the electrochemical oxidation of a dinuclear, double helical Cu(I) complex of a triazine-based pentadentate ligand.
A dicopper(I) double helicate oxidizes and rapidly reorganises to form a stable pentadentate dicopper(II) double helicate due to the proximity of pendant pyridyl rings as studied by electrochemical and structural analyses.
