Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a New Diamine Complex CuC14（H2tn）

In an attempt to synthesize a new pyrimidine complex of copper(H) in a solution reaction of CuBr2 with 2,2‘-bis(hexahydropydmidine) and hydro-chloric acid, we unexpectedly obtained a bright yellow chip-like crystal of CuCl4(H2tn) [H2tn=(H3NCH2CH2CH2NH3)^2 ].
