Bis{N,N-bis-[(diphenyl-phosphan-yl)meth-yl]aniline-κP,P'}copper(I) tetra-fluoridoborate.

ABSTRACT

In the cation of the title compound, [Cu(C(32)H(29)NP(2))(2)]BF(4), the Cu(I) atom is four-coordinated in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry by four P atoms from two N,N-bis-[(diphenyl-phosphan-yl)meth-yl]aniline ligands. In the crystal, the cations are linked by C-H⋯π inter-actions, forming chains along the a axis. Intra-molecular C-H⋯N and inter-molecular C-H⋯F hydrogen bonds are also observed.
