A copper cyclam-type complex was successfully immobilized onto mesoporous silica SBA-16. Characterization by NIR spectroscopy and TGA analysis confirmed that copper cyclam complex is immobilized onto mesoporous SBA-16. The Cu(II)-Cyclam-SBA-16 was proven to be a good catalyst for oxidation reaction of cyclohexene with conversion up to 77.8% after 13 h reaction and providing a high selectivity to cyclohexenol and 3-hydroperoxycyclohex-1-ene. The results suggest that the copper species play a major role as catalyst via reversible redox cycles as proven by cyclic voltammetry analysis.

A Cu(II) complex with an three nitrogens and one sulfur coordination environment was synthesized and characterized. Its redox potential was observed at 0.483 V vs. NHE, very similar to that of a Cu-containing fungal enzyme, galactose oxidase, which catalyzes the oxidation of alcohols to corresponding aldehydes with the concomitant reduction of molecular oxygen to water. The Cu(II) complex selectively oxidizes the benzylic alcohols using TEMPO/$O_2$ under mild reaction conditions to corresponding aldehydes without forming any over-oxidation product. Moreover, the catalyst can be recovered and reused multiple times for further oxidation reactions, thus minimizing the waste generation.

Six new binuclear copper(II) complexes have been prepared by template condensation of the dialdehydes 1,8-[bis(3-formyl-2-hydroxy-5-methyl)benzyl]-l,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (PC-a) and 1,8-[bis(3-formyl-2-hydroxy-5-bromo)benzyl]-l,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (PC-b) with appropriate aliphatic diamines, and copper(II) perchlorate. The structural features of the complexes have been confirmed by elemental analysis, IR, UV-vis and mass spectra etc. The electrochemical behavior of all the copper(II) complexes show two irreversible one electron reduction process. The room temperature magnetic moment studies depict the presence of an antiferromagnetic interaction in the binuclear complexes. The catechol oxidation and hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenylphosphate were carried out by using the complexes as catalyst. The antimicrobial screening data show good results. The binding of the complexes to calf thymus DNA (CT DNA) has been investigated with absorption and emission spectroscopy. The complex [$Cu_2L^{1a}$] displays significant cleavage property of circular plasmid pBR322 DNA in to linear form. Spectral, electrochemical, magnetic and catalytic studies support the distortion of the copper ion geometry that arises as the macrocyclic ring size increases.

Graphene has attracted an increasing attention due to its extraordinary electronic, mechanical, and thermal properties. Especially, the two dimensional (2D) sheet of graphene with an extremely high surface to volume ratio has a great potential in the preparation of multifunctional nanomaterials, as 2D supports to host metal nanoparticles (NPs). Copper oxide is widely used in various areas as antifouling paint, p-type semiconductor, dry cell batteries, and catalysts. Although the copper oxide(II) has been well known for efficient catalyst in C-N cross-coupling reaction, copper oxide(I) has not been highlighted. In this research, CuO and Cu2O nanoparticles (NPs) dispersed on the surface of grapehene oxide (GO) have been synthesized by impregnation method and their morphological and electronic structures have been systemically investigated using TEM, XRD, and XAFS. We demonstrate that both CuO and Cu2O on graphene presents efficient catalytic performance toward C-N cross coupling reaction. The detailed structural difference between CuO and Cu2O NPs and their effect on catalytic performance are discussed.

본 연구에서는 Cu 촉매가 도입된 활성탄소섬유를 제조하여 고효율 $SO_2$ 흡착재를 제조하였다. 라이오셀 섬유를 내염화 및 탄화공정을 통해 탄소섬유를 얻었으며, $SO_2$ 흡착능을 향상시키기 위해 KOH 활성화를 사용하여 높은 비표면적 및 균일한 미세기공구조를 부여하였다. 활성탄소섬유에 Cu 촉매를 도입하기 위하여 $Cu(NO_3)_2{\cdot}3H_2O$ 수용액을 사용하였으며, 공정 시 i) 탄소섬유 내 산소 관능기의 분해반응을 촉진하고, ii) 산화구리 및 질산염의 분해로 oxygen radical이 생성되어 탄소섬유의 활성화 반응을 촉진시켰다. 이로 인해 활성탄소섬유의 미세공과 중기공 형성효과 및 탄소섬유 표면에 고르게 분산된 Cu 촉매를 확인하였다. Cu 촉매 도입 후, 활성탄소섬유에 비해 비표면적 및 미세공의 비율이 약 10% 이상 증가되었고, $SO_2$ 흡착능이 149% 이상 향상된 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. Cu 촉매도입공정 시, 전이금속 촉매효과에 의하여 발달된 미세공, 중기공 및 비표면적에 의한 물리적 흡착과 도입된 Cu 촉매에 의한 $SO_2$ 가스의 화학적 흡착반응의 시너지 효과에 기인하여 $SO_2$ 흡착능이 향상된 것으로 사료된다.

액체 암모니아와 p-diiodobenzene (PDIB)을 반응물로, Cu계 화합물을 촉매로 사용하는Aromatic amination을 이용하여 p-phenylenediamine (PPD)을 합성하였다. 촉매의 종류와 양, 환원제의 종류, 암모니아의 양, 반응 온도가 생성물의 분포에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. Cu(I) 화합물과 Cu 분말은 촉매로서 작용한 반면 Cu(II) 화합물은 촉매로서 작용하지 않았다. 촉매의 양이 증가할수록 반응속도는 빨라지지만 부반응물인 aniline의 생성량도 증가하였다. Aniline 생성량은 또한 사용한 암모니아의 양이 증가할수록 감소하였다. 촉매 사용량을 줄이기 위해 환원제인 ascorbic acid, hydrazine, dihydroxyfumaric acid를 조촉매로 사용하면 반응속도가 크게 향상되었으나 부반응물인 aniline의 생성량 또한 증가하였다. 사용한 조촉매 중에서는 ascorbic acid와 dihydroxyfumaric acid를 사용하였을 경우가 hydrazine을 사용하였을 경우보다 반응속도가 빨랐고, dihydroxyfumaric acid를 사용하였을 경우 가장 적은 양의 aniline이 생성되었다.

High molecular weight(MW), 3-arm star poly(methyl methacrylate)(PMMA) with a narrow MW distribution($M_n$=570,000 g/mol, PDI=1.36) was successfully synthesized by activators regenerated by electron transfer(ARGET) atom transfer radical polymerization(ATRP). The polymerization was carried out with a trifunctional initiator/$CuBr_2$/N,N,N',N",N"-pentamethyldiethy lenetriamine(PMDETA) initiator/catalyst system in the presence of a tin(II) 2-ethylhexanoate [$Sn(EH)_2$] reducing agent at $90^{\circ}C$. The concentration of the copper catalyst was as low as 30 ppm, and a high initiation efficiency of the initiating sites was obtained. The chain-end functionality of the high MW, 3-arm star PMMA was confirmed by a chain extension experiment with styrene via ARGET ATRP, using the same catalyst system.

Sustainable development is a balance between environment and development. Sustainable development requires sustainable supplies of clean, affordable, and renewable energy sources that do not cause negative impact to the society. This article introduces a green chemistry method to synthesize 2-amino-4H-chromenes that reduces or eliminates the use and generation of hazardous substances in the design, manufacture, and application of chemical products. This method is described using copper (II) sulfate pentahydrate, as a green and reusable catalyst on water. The products were obtained at very good yields, short reaction time, and at lower cost than other reported procedures.

A simple and highly sensitive chemiluminescence method to determine norfloxacin (NFLX) has been proposed by measuring the chemiluminescence (CL) intensities using a flow injection (FI) system. The CL intensity of the luminol-$H_2O_2$ system is strongly enhanced by the addition of Cu (II) in alkaline condition. The CL intensity is substantially increased after the injection of NFLX into the luminol-$H_2O_2$-Cu (II) system. The enhancement effect is attributed to a catalytic effect of Cu (II) due to the interaction with NFLX which forms a complex with the catalyst. Under the optimal conditions, the sensitizing effect of the CL intensity is proportional to the concentration of NFLX in the range of $1.5{\times}10^{-9}-5.9{\times}10^{-7}molL^{-1}$ (r = 0.9994) with a detection limit ($3{\sigma}$) of $2.98{\times}10^{-10}molL^{-1}$. The proposed method had good reproducibility with the relative standard deviation (RSD, n = 5) of 1.6% for $1{\times}10^{-7}molL^{-1}$ of NFLX. The possible reaction mechanism of the CL reaction is also discussed. This method has been successfully applied for the determination of trace amount of NFLX in pharmaceutical preparations and serum samples.
