Abstract
Molecular weight measurements and microwave titrations indicate that no interaction occurs between tetrameric 2-Me{2}NCH{2}C{6}H{4}Cu (Ar{4}Cu{4}) and the monodentate ligands PPh{3}, CH{3}CN or pyridine. However, the tetrameric structure Ar{4}Cu{4} breaks down upon interaction (1/1 molar ratio ArCu/L) with the bidentate ligands (L) Diphos or cis-DPPEE to give the monomeric 1/1 complexes
