An imidazolate-bridged heterobinuclear (copper–zinc) complex of a macrobicyclic ligand, a model of the active site of superoxide dismutase

Abstract
The first imidazolate-bridged heterobinuclear copper–zinc complex of a unique macrobicyclic ligand (cryptand) was prepared and characterized by X-ray diffraction; the complex-catalysed dismutation of superoxide anion survives in the presence of bovine serum albumin.
