metabolism the indole ring, as an electron donor, stabilizes the phenoxyl radical by the pi-pi stacking interaction. A CuII complex of a methoxy-substituted salen-type ligand, containing a pendent indole ring on the dinitrogen chelate backbone exhibits the pi-pi stacking interaction of the indole ring mainly with one of the two phenolate moieties. The phenolate moiety in close contact with the indole moiety shows the characteristic phenoxyl radical structural features, indicating that the indole ring favors the pi-pi stacking interaction with the phenoxyl radical synthetic construct
