Ss. Lemos et al., Copper(I) pseudohalide complexes with 4,6-dimethylpyrimidine-2(1H)-thione and triphenylphosphane as ligands. The X-ray crystal structures of [Cu(N-3)(dmpymtH)(PPh3)(2)] and [Cu(NCS)(dmpymtH)(PPh3)(2)], POLYHEDRON, 20(9-10), 2001, pp. 849-854
The preparation of mixed-ligand copper(I) coordination compounds containing
pseudohalides (azide and thiocyanate), 4,6-dimethylpyrimidine-2(1H)-thione
(dmpymtH), and triphenylphosphane is described. The crystalline and molecu
lar structure of [Cu(N-3)(dmpymtH)(PPh3)(2)] (2) and [Cu(NCS)(dmpymtH)(PPh3
)(2)] (3) have been determined by X-ray diffraction methods. The copper ato
m has a tetra-coordinate CuNP2S chromophore with distorted tetrahedral coor
dination in both complexes. Vibrational and H-1, C-13, P-31 NMR spectra of
the complexes are discussed and related to the structures. (C) 2001 Elsevie
