J Am Chem Soc. 2011 Apr 6;133(13):4788-90. doi: 10.1021/ja201525a. Epub 2011 Mar 7.

Abstract

A perfectly square-planar, D(4h)-symmetric, tetracoordinated oxygen has been observed in a tetracopper cluster-based coordination polymer that shows an unusual magnetic moment and ESR signal. The stabilization factor of the square-planar tetracoordinated oxygen has been revealed using DFT calculations.
