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 CuO 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.
