Nucleophilicity at copper(-I) in a compound with a Cu–Mg bond

Abstract Copper is ubiquitous as a structural material, and as a reagent in (bio)chemical transformations. A vast number of chemical reactions rely on the near-inevitable preference of copper for positive oxidation states to make useful compounds. Here we show this electronic paradigm can be subvert...
