Dynamic combinatorial chemistry in a solvothermal process of Cu(i,ii) and organosulfur ligands

Abstract

An unprecedented microwave C(sp2)–S and S–S bond activation of 2,2′-dipyridyldisulfide (2-dpds) and the formation of a new architecture of coordination networks obtained by reaction of Cu(HCO2)2·xH2O with 2-dpds under solvothermal microwave conditions are reported. This unusual reaction proceeds with the partial oxidation of 2,2′-dipyridyldisulfide to sulfate. The process generates: a Cu(I) dimetallic complex [Cu2(μ-Hpyt)2(Hpyt)4](SO4)·∼5EtOH (1), a Cu(I,II) polycationic coordination polymer [Cu(H2O)6][Cu6(μ-Hpyt)12](SO4)4·4H2O (2) and a dimetallic Cu(II) complex [Cu(2-dps)(μ-SO4)(H2O)]2·3H2O (3). It is worth mentioning the strong red luminescence shown by compounds 1 and 2.
