Abstract

Thermal and/or photochemical conversion of a series of copper(II) complexes containing mixed dithiocarbamato–alcohol ligands, Cu II(Et 2dtc) + . Y − (Y=ClO 4 −, NO 3 −), into Cu II(Et 2dtc)Cl in chloroalkane/alcohol solutions, where chloroalkane=CCl 4, CHCl 3 or CH 2Cl 2 and alcohol=MeOH, EtOH or i-BuOH, proceeds in chloroalkanes. Both reactions follow a similar pathway which is more effective the stronger the acceptor properties of chloroalkanes and the weaker the coordinating abilities of alcohols are. A detailed reaction mechanism is proposed which well fits the experimental results obtained by EPR and UV–VIS spectra and quantum yields.
