Abstract

Volatility studies, electrospray mass spectra and IR in vapour phase were carried out for a series of Cu(I) and Cu(II) complexes containing anionic pyrazole-based ligands such as 4-acyl-5-pyrazolonates and poly(pyrazolyl)borates. The volatility has been related to structural features and molecular parameters of the copper complexes. The crystal structures of [Cu(Q′) 2(bipy)]·(acetone) 1.5 (Q′=1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-benzoyl-pyrazolon-5-ato, bipy=2,2′-bipyridyl) and [Cu(Q F) 2(phen)]·EtOH (Q F=1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-trifluoroacetyl-pyrazolon-5-ato, phen=1,10-phenanthroline), have been also determined. In these complexes the copper atom is in a tetragonally distorted octahedral arrangement of the four O-atoms of pyrazolones with N 2-donor ligand in equatorial position. Two sets of CuO distances, the longer being in axial positions, have been found. XRD data of films obtained from metal organic chemical vapour deposition MOCVD experiments on [Cu(poly(pyrazolyl)borate)(PR 3)] complexes have also been reported.
