The structure and O2-reactivity of a series of copper(I) complexes supported by the pyridylalkylamine ligands are summarized, and the ligand effects such as the chelate ring size effect (five- vs. six-membered ring), the denticity effect (tetradentate vs. tridentate vs. didentate), the steric effect of 6-methylpyridine and the steric and/or electronic effects of N-alkyl substituents are discussed in detail.
