Abstract: | Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Copper and Silver Complexes containing Dithiophosphinato and Trithiophosphonato Ligands The reactions of CuI and AgI salts with diphenyldithiophosphinic acid trimethylsilylester in the presence of tertiary phosphines yield the complexes Cu(μ‐S)SPPh2(PR3)]2 (R = Me 1a , iPr 1b ), Ag(μ‐S)SPPh2(PnPr3)]2 ( 2 ), Ag(S2PPh2)(PEt3)]2 ( 3 ), and Cu8(μ8‐S)(S2PPh2)6] ( 4 ). The cage complex (PhPS3)2Cu4(PMe3)5] ( 5 ) is obtained by the reaction of phenyltrithiophosphonic acid trimethylester. All compounds were structurally characterised by X‐ray crystallography. |
