Synthesis and characterization of the novel copper(I) anion [Cu(PPh3)Br2]−

TL;DR: In this article, the PPh3 ligand was found to be co-ordinated to the copper atom of the CuBr2 unit in a trigonal planar arrangement, with Cu-P 2.210(3), Cu-Br 2.367(2), 2.386(2)A and Br-Cu-Br 114.9(1)°.
Journal ArticleDOI

Copper(I) monophosphine complexes with functionalized acylpyrazolonate ligands: Syntheses of heterobimetallic Cu–Zn and Cu–Ru adducts

TL;DR: In this paper, the isomorphous crystal structures of the acylpyrazolonate derivatives of formula [Cu(Q)(PPh3)2] have been synthesized and characterized, both in the solid state and in solution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trimetallic complexes containing 1,1′-Rc′(CC)2 units [Rc′ = ruthenocene-1,1′-diyl, Ru(η-C5H4–)2]

TL;DR: In this paper, the X-ray structures of 4, 6b and 8 have been determined and cyclic voltammograms indicate that there is some electronic communication between the ruthenium end-groups through the Rc′ centre.
Journal ArticleDOI

Condensations of Ethane-1,2-Diamine, Formaldehyde and Ammonia (or Nitroethane) Directed by Nickel(II) or Copper(II). Crystal Structure of (8-Methyl-8-nitro-1,3,6,10,13,15-hexaazatricyclo[13.1.1.1 13,15]octadecane)nickel(II) Perchlorate

TL;DR: In this paper, the sterically hindered linear tetraamines 1,3,5,7-tetra-azabicyclo [3.3.l] nonane and 3,3′-(ethane-1,2-diyl)bis (1, 3, 5,7,7tetrasamide-bicyl) bis (1.3, 5.1) nonane have been obtained from reaction of the metal salt with the quaternary 'hexamminium' cation and ammonia, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural and Spectroscopic Studies of [M((x)tu)4]+ Systems (M = Cu, Ag; (x)tu = (substituted) Thiourea)

TL;DR: In this paper, the structure determination of a 1:4 adduct of a silver salt with a (substituted) thiourea ligand is also reported, for silver(I) nitrate with ‘ethylenethIourea’, (‘etu’ = SC(NHCH2)2), as a monohydrate [Ag(etu)4](NO3)·H2O, wherein Ag-S range between 2.544-2.637(2), 2.59(4) A, S
