a

[Complex] = 10–50 μM.

b

3CliPr is poorly soluble in water; the values are derived from the rate of appearance of definite UV–vis spectra.

c

Not determined.

d

DMSO containing 0.005% of water was used ([H2O] = 2.77 × 10–3 M).

e

3IiPr is completely insoluble in water.

f

Experiments performed using a saturated aqueous solution; [3dmsoiPr] ≈ 10 μM (such a low concentration had to be used due to the very low solubility of this compound in water).
