Synthesis of copper(I) complexes with a novel naphthyl-appended macrocyclic ligand, including the crystal and molecular structure of the first copper(I)–η2-naphthyl complex
Abstract
A new ligand, N-[2-(1-naphthyl)ethyl]-1-aza-4,8-dithiacyclodecane (L), and two of its copper(I) complexes [CuL(MeCN)]PF6 and [CuL]PF6, have been synthesized and characterized, including crystal structures of the two copper complexes.
