title: Oxygenation chemistry at a mononuclear copper(II) hydroquinone system with O2.
abstract: Aerobic treatment of a copper(II) complex supported by a bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amine ligand containing a p-hydroquinone moiety on one of the pyridine donor groups in CH(3)OH induces oxygenation reaction of the ligand to give a hydroxylated p-quinone derivative.
