A systematic investigation of the alcoholysis of copper(II) pivalate (piv-) solutions has led to a series of Cu-2, Cu-6, and Cu-16 products, depending on the alcohol used as solvent. When (PrOH)-O-n or (BuOH)-O-n was employed, the products were the clusters [Cu16O4(OH)(4)(OR)(8)(piv)(12)(ROH)] (R = Pr-n, Bu-n) that are almost isostructural. The Cu-16 clusters are antiferromagnetically-coupled with an S = 0 spin ground state.
