Abstract

A novel silver-copper anionic cluster [Ag₆Cu₇(C ₂Ph)₁₄]^- has been synthesized from the reaction of [PhC₂AgC₂Ph]^- and a mixture of [AgC ₂Ph]_n and [CuC₂Ph]_n; its structure constitutes a central linearly co-ordinated copper atom linked through Cu-Ag interactions to three tetranuclear [Ag₂Cu₂(C ₂Ph)₄] subclusters, and within each unit of the sub-cluster, copper and silver atoms are bonded through metal-metal interactions and via bridged phenylethynyl ligands.
