Abstract
Reaction of copper(Ir) ion with 3,4-bis(dicyanomethylene)cyclobutane-1 ,2-dione dianion (cdcb(2-)) led to a copper(I) complex, [(Cu-2(cdcb)(M eCN)(2)},(n)]. The crystal structure of this first complex of cdcb has been determined; it consists of layers of Cu-2(cdcb)(MeCN)(2) units p arallel to the nb planes. The redox system of this complex, investigat ed by electrochemistry and ESR spectroscopy, is formed by the dianion, the radical anion, the neutral species of cdcb and the Cu-I-Cu-II sys tem.
