✦ Synopsis

Copper salts and organocopper(I) compounds are widely used for stoichiometric and catalytic additions and substitutions. [1][2][3] The high synthetic potential of copper(I) complexes or metal organocuprate clusters and the difficulty in designing new active copper systems are both based on the ability of these complexes to form supramolecular clusters, which represent an intricate example of molecular recognition. [1,4] The complexity in determining the structures of these supramolecular species in solution, [4] the existence of dynamic
