Abstract
Copper methoxide compound IPrCuOMe was unexpectedly formed in a reaction of IPrCuPPh2 with methyl acrylate. The alkoxide product was identified from the reaction mixture spectroscopically and structurally characterized. This C–O bond cleavage re-action likely depends on nucleophilicity of the Cu–P bond of IPrCuPPh2.
