Abstract

Novel mixed-ligand copper(I) complexes of general formula [TPP-Cu-(L)Cl] or [TPPhos-Cu-(L)Cl], where TPP=triphenylphosphine, TPPhos=triphenylphosphate and L=imidazolidine-2-thione [Imt], N-propylimidazolidice-2-thione [PrImt], N-i-propylimidazolidine-2-thione [iPrImt], and 1,3-diazinine-2-thione [Diaz] and bis coniplexes of formula [(L)2CuCl] where L=[PrImt] and [iPrImt] have been prepared and characterized by electronic, vibrational and n.m.r. spectroscopy. The spectral data are consistent with S-donation of thiones. The magnitude of upfield shift in13Cn.m.r. of the thionreide carbon on complexation has been interpreted in terms of coordination geometry around the metal stoms. X-ray structure analysis agrees with the conclusions from the spectroscopic measurements. The structure of [(PrImt)2CuCl] revealed three-coordinated copper(I) with crystal data:a=14.106(4), b=14.380(2), c=19.024(3) A, β=108.8(2)°, z=8 and space group P2/c.
