Abstract
The title compound, [CuI(C18H15P)3]·C2H3N, was obtained from the reaction of triphenylphosphine and copper(I) iodide in acetonitrile. The monomeric form of the complex has slightly distorted coordination of Cu by the I atom and three P atoms. The crystal structure is stabilized by C—H⋯π interactions between phenyl H atoms and phenyl rings. In addition, the complex molecules exhibit C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds between phenyl H atoms and acetonitrile N atoms. The crystal used was an inversion twin, with nearly equal component populations of 0.522 (8) and 0.478 (8).
