Synthesis and X-ray crystal structure of a bis(2,2′-bipyridyl)trithionatocopper(II) complex
Abstract
The compound obtained by treating bis(2,2′-bipyridyl)copper(II) chloride with potassium thiosulphate is shown to be a bis(2,2′-bipyridyl)trithionatocopper(II) complex; this is, to our knowledge, the only X-ray crystal structure of a trithionate complex to be determined.
