Unusual Triplet-Triplet Annihilation in a 3D Copper Chloride Coordination Polymer
A new coordination polymer (CP) defined as [Cu2Cl2(EtS(CH2)4SEt)4]n (CP2) was prepared by reacting EtS(CH2)4SEt with CuCl in acetonitrile in a 1 : 2 stoichiometric ratio. The X-ray structure reveals formation of non-porous 3D material composed of parallel 2D-[Cu2Cl2S2]n layers of Cl-bridged ...
Reactivity of CuI and CuBr toward Dialkyl Sulfides RSR: From Discrete Molecular Cu4I4S4 and Cu8I8S6 Clusters to Luminescent Copper(I) Coordination Polymers
The CuX salts (X = I, Br) react with SR2 to form molecular clusters of the types [(R2S)4(Cu4I4)] and [(R2S)6(Cu8I8)] or to give 1D polymers and 2D metal−organic frameworks. The cluster nuclearity and connectivity as well as the dimensionality of these compounds depend on the steric demand of SR2, ...
