Abstract: | Molecular weight measurements and microwave titrations indicate that no interaction occurs between tetrameric 2-Me2NCH2C6H4Cu (Ar4Cu4) and the monodentate ligands PPh3, CH3CN or pyridine. However, the tetrameric structure Ar4Cu4 breaks down upon interaction (1/1 molar ratio ArCu/L) with the bidentate ligands (L) Diphos or cis-DPPEE to give the monomeric 1/1 complexes ArCu · L.Addition of Diphos to ArCu · Diphos or conducting the reaction of Ar4Cu4 with Diphos in a 1/2 ratio (ArCu/Diphos) gives rise to a CalkP bond cleavage reaction resulting in the formation of dimeric (Ph2PCu · Diphos)2 · 2 C6H6, ArH and Ph2PCHCH2.The molecular structure of (Ph2PCu · Diphos)2 · 2 C6H6, has been determined by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. Crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/c and have Z 2 in a unit cell of dimensions a 12.997(6), b 12.669(7), c 22.839(9) Å and β 94.48(4)°. The structure was refined to R 0.048 for 3048 independent reflections. The four copper atoms in the dimer are held together by two Ph2P bridges. The bonding in the dimer is discussed. |
