Abstract
The 3 : 1 reaction of [Cu(C2H4)n]ClO4 with 2,4-bis(2-pyridyl)pyrimidine (bpprd) in Me2CO under C2H4 afforded yellow prism crystals of the dinuclear Cu(I)-C2H4 complex [Cu2(bpprd)(η2-C2H4)2(ClO4)2] (1). The 3 : 1 reaction of [Cu(C2H4)n]NO3 with bpprd in Me2CO under C2H4 afforded yellow plate crystals of the tetranuclear Cu(I)-C2H4 complex [Cu4(bpprd)2(η2-C2H4)4(μ-NO3)2](NO3)2 (2). The 10 : 1 reaction of [Cu(C2H4)n]BF4 with bpprd in Me2CO under C2H4 afforded yellow plate crystals of the dinuclear Cu(I)-C2H4 complex [Cu2(bpprd)(η2-C2H4)2(BF4)]BF4 (3). The 3 : 1 reaction of [Cu(C2H4)n]BF4 with bpprd in Me2CO under C2H4 afforded red prism crystals of the polymeric Cu(I)-C2H4 complex {[Cu6(bpprd)4(η2-C2H4)2(μ-η2:η2-C2H4)(μ-BF4)2](BF4)4}n (4). The X-ray crystal structures of complexes 1-4 have been determined. The structural diversity of Cu(I)-C2H4 complexes bridged by bpprd with different anions was demonstrated. The 1D Cu(I)-bpprd/C2H4 coordination polymer 4 bridged by unusual μ-η2:η2-C2H4 and the μ-BF4- anion is of particular significance. Complex 1 exhibited relatively well-resolved 1H NMR signals of bpprd and C2H4 (δ = 4.97 ppm) in (CD3)2CO at 23 °C.
