Abstract
The solid-state structures of dimeric bis(triphenylphosphine)copper(I) carbonate and bicarbonate have been determined by X-ray crystallograp hy. The bicarbonate complex possesses an uncommon mode of carbonate or carboxylate binding. That is, the two Cu(I) ions are bridged by two o xygen atoms, one from each of two bicarbonate ligands. This bonding in teraction is complemented by strong intermolecular hydrogen-bonding.
