Abstract

Abstract The title compounds Ph3PNPh · CuCl (1) and (Ph3P)2 N2 C4O2 (NMe) CuCl (2) have been prepared by the reactions of CuCl with the corresponding phosphoranimines Ph3PNPh and 2.3-bis(triphenylphosphoranylideneamino)maleic acid N-methylimide, respectively. Both com-plexes were characterized by their IR spectra as well as by crystal structure determinations. Ph3PNPh · CuCl (1): space group P1, Z = 4, 3639 independent observed reflexions, R = 0.038. Lattice dimensions (18 °C): a = 1047.6; b = 1251.5; c = 1755 pm; α = 103.43°; β = 97.24°; γ = 101.30°. The compound forms monomeric molecules; the asymmetric unit contains two crystallo-graphically independent molecules. The CuCl molecule is bonded via the N atom of the phos-phoranimine. Bond lengths: Cu-N = 189 pm; Cu-CI = 209 pm; bond angle N - Cu - CI = 177°. (Ph3P)2N2C4O2(NMe) · CuCl (2): space group Pbca, Z = 8, 5611 independent, observed reflexions, R = 0.069. Lattice dimensions (25 °C): a = 1224.3; b = 1962.5: c = 2994.0 pm. The compound forms monomeric molecules with the CuCl molecule bonded via one of the N atoms of the phosphoranimine groups. Bond lengths: Cu - N = 194 pm; Cu-CI = 212 pm; bond angle N-Cu -CI -175°.
