Bis(N-methylimidazolidinethi-2-one)copper(I) chloride has been synthes
ized and its crystal structure determined. X-Irradiation of a single c
rystal of this compound leads to the formation of a Cu-II complex whic
h was studied by EPR: it was shown that this species results from the
addition of a radiogenic Cl atom on the Cu-I precursor. The structural
changes induced by this reaction are revealed by the g-tensor and by
the hyperfine tensors of one copper and two chlorine nuclei. The struc
ture of this S2Cl2Cu type complex was compared with other sulfur- or c
hlorine-containing Cu-II complexes.
