Abstract: | The interaction of Cu(II)(dtc)2 and Cu(I)(dtc) complexes with haloalkanes were studied by the EPR method. It was found that the Cu(II)(dtc)2 complex reacted with haloalkanes only in the presence of weak Lewis bases which formed adducts with it. The intermediate reaction product is the mixed-ligand complex Cu(II)(dtc)Xn (X = Cl, Br, n = 1 or 2); the final products being CuX2Bn (B = Lewis bases, n = 1 or 2) and unstable resin-like residue. Cu(I)(dtc) reacted with haloalkanes without any promoters giving the mixed-ligand complex Cu(II)(dtc)Xn as product. Free radicals were detected in the reaction of Cu(I)(dtc) using the method of “radical scavenger” and were not found in the reaction of Cu(II)(dtc)2. The reported results confirmed one of the two reaction mechanisms proposed in the previous studies. The role of the solvent on the EPR parameters of the mixed-ligand Cu(II)(dtc)X complex is also discussed. |
