Nine copper(Ⅱ) oxyanion, and mixed oxyanion complexes that have four- or five-coordinate geometries around copper(Ⅱ) centers were derived from sparteine copper(Ⅱ) dinitrate precursor [Cu($C_{15}$$H_{26}$N2)(NO3)2]. The precursor complex undergoes an anion exchange with various oxyanions, and an interchange reaction with other sparteine copper(Ⅱ) complexes. The [Cu($C_{15}$$H_{26}$N2)(CH3CO2)2] also undergoes "halogen atom abstraction" reaction with CCl4 to produce the mixed anion complex [Cu($C_{15}$$H_{26}$N2)(CH3CO2)Cl]. The whole set of prepared complexes has been used for the comparative electrochemical and spectroscopic studies.

Four copper(II) complexes have been prepared using macrocyclic ligands. The macrocyclic ligands have been synthesized by the condensation reaction of diethyl phthalate with Schiff bases derived from o-phenylene diamine and Knoevenagel condensed ${\beta}-ketoanilides$ (obtained by the condensation of acetoacetanilide and substituted benzaldehydes). The ligands and copper complexes have been characterized on the basis of Microanalytical, Mass, UV-Vis., IR and CV spectral studies, as well as conductivity data. On the basis of spectral studies, a square-planar geometry for the copper complexes has been proposed. The in vitro antifungal activities of the compounds were tested against fungi such as Aspergillus niger, Rhizopus stolonifer, Aspergillus flavus, Rhizoctonia bataicola and Candida albicans. All the synthesized copper complexes showed stronger antifungal activities than free ligands. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of the copper complexes were found in the range of $8{\sim}28\;{\mu}g/ml$. These compounds represent a novel class of metal-based antifungal agents which provide opportunities for a large number of synthetic variations for modulation of the activities.

Epoxidation of olefins has been studied using iodosylbenzene (PhIO) as the terminal oxidant and binuclear and mononuclear complexes of $Mn^{2+}$, $Co^{2+}$, and $Cu^{2+}$ as catalysts. Epoxides were the predominant products with trace amounts of allylic oxidation products, and the metal complexes were found to be effective catalysts in the epoxidation reactions. The reactivity of binuclear copper complexes was greater than that of the mononuclear copper complexes, whereas the binuclear and mononuclear complexes of $Mn^{2+}$ and $Co^{2+}$ showed similar reactivities. The nature of the ligands bound to copper did not influence the reactivity of the binuclear copper complexes so long as copper ions were held in close proximity. A metal-iodosylbenzene complex, such as suggested previously for Lewis acidic metal complex-catalyzed epoxidation by iodosylbenzene, is proposed as the active epoxidizing species. Some mechanistic aspects are discussed as well.

A series of copper complexes of some amino acid derivatives of 6-methoxy 3-methyl-coumarilic acid were prepared. The infrared, visible spectra and magnetic susceptibility of these compounds were reported. All copper complexes were foundt to have antimicrobial activity against gram-positive bacteria only.

In the previous study, the composition ratios of the Cu-sulfa drugs complexes determined by gravimetric and solvent extraction method reported. In this paper, the continuous variations method has been used to know whether the complexes are simple complexes or chelates, and to recertify the composition ratios of the complexes at pH 7-8. It has been certified that the ratio of $Cu^{+2}$ ion to sulfa drugs in 1:2 from the result of this experiment.

A new tridentate ligand incorporating a monoxime and thiosemi-carbozone moieties has been synthesized. Its copper(II), nickel(II) and palladium(II) complexes have been prepared and characteirzed by physical and spectral methods. Elemental analyses and spectroscopic data of the metal complexes are consistent with the formation of a mononuclear copper(II) complex and binuclear complex with both nickel(II) and palladium(II). In the copper(II) complex the fourth coordination site is occupied by nitrate ion. In the binculear complexes the fourth coordination site is occupied by the deprotonated oxime oxygen of the ligand coordinated to the other metal.

The purpose of this work is to investigate the molar ratio, the precipitation condition and the color of copper sulfa-drugs complexes. The colors of the complexes are observed at every precipitation condition is obtained as pH 7-9. The determination of the molar ratio of complexes is able to be carried out by way of gravimetric method and solvent extraction method. The molar ratios of sulfa-drugs and copper in identified complexes are 2:1 when utilizing both methods.

Temperature-dependent, solution EPR spectra of two mixed-valence copper(II)-copper(I) complexes have been simulated by using modified Bloch equations. The transition probability for the intramolecular electron transfer is determined from the simulation. The transition probabilities have been fitted to the Arrhenius equation to derive the activation energies. The transition probability also varies according to the solvent used.
