Cyclopentanone thiosemicarbazone (Hcptsc) induces a new bonding pattern in (Ph3P)Cu(mu-Br)(mu3-S,N-Hcptsc)CuBr(PPh3) dimer

摘要

Reaction of cyclopentanone thiosemicarbazone (Hcptsc) with copper(I) bromide and Ph3P in 1:1:1 molar ratio in acetonitrile has formed an asymmetric dimer,[(Ph3P)Cu(mu-Br)(mu3-S,N-Hcptsc)CuBr(PPh3)] (1),with a new {Cu(mu-Br)(mu3-S,N)Cu} bonding core in metal-thiosemicarbazone chemistry.
