Page 868. The title of our paper needs a comment, as we have learned several months after the publication appeared that X-ray structures of Cu(OMe)(OAc) have been previously published twice. In fact we overlooked two earlier reports (19801 and 1996,2 respectively; entry codes in CSD: MEACCU and MEACCU01) on apparently the same species. We can only explain the missing references by our apparently incorrect searches in the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD). This error is likely to be related to the fact that the 1980 structure had been assigned a different space group, and that our 2003 data were recorded at low temperatures, in contrast to the other two publications, in which the X-ray measurements were performed at room temperature. This resulted in quite different cell constants, i.e., larger than the threshold used in the CONQUEST software of the CSD. The authors are indebted to Dr. G. Matouzenko (Lyon, France) and Dr. M. Munakata (Osaka, Japan) for exchange of information and discussion regarding this corrigendum. (1) Simonov, Y. A.; Matuzenko, G. S.; Botoshanskii, M. M.; Yampol’skaya, M. A. Dokl. Akad.
