20. The (1R,2R)-cyclohexanediamine backbone was chosen both for its preorganized nature and its chirality. In its energetically preferred conformation with the two amine substituents equatorially positioned, this ligand is preorganized for binding a single metal. The enantiomeric purity of the ligand significantly reduces the probability of forming diastereomeric complexes.

28. The structure of 2 bears a strong superficial resemblance to that of a previously reported macrocyclic bis(μ3-hydroxo)tricopper(ll) species; however, this thermally stable cluster exhibits full threefold symmetry, has normal Cu(II)-O and Cu(II)-N distances, and carries an overall charge of 4+ [J. Comarmond, B. Dietrich, J. Lehn, R. Louis, Chem. Commun. 1985, 74 (1985)].

30. 3-oxotricopper(II) species would also be consistent with an overall charge of 3+ but fails to rationalize the short Cu-O bonds exhibited by the unique Cu site.
