Comment top

The structure of the title compound, (I), has been determined as part of an investigation into the structural properties of the adducts formed between the tris(triphenylphosphine)copper(I) cation and monovalent anions. The structure determination of (I) shows the complex to consist of discrete [(PPh3)3Cu]+ cations and [PF6] anions, with the shortest Cu···F distance being 4.44 (2) Å (Fig. 1 and Table 1).

The lattice packing arrangement of the cations and anions are illustrated in Fig. 2. In the cation, steric congestion by the phenyl rings of the PPh3 ligands results in a distorted trigonal-planar environment for the Cu, with P—Cu—P angles of 125.20 (4), 120.01 (4) and 113.28 (4)°, and a mean value of 120 (6)°. The Cu atom lies less than 0.2 Å out of the plane of the three P atoms. The Cu—P bond lengths of 2.277 (1), 2.286 (1) and 2.301 (1) Å [mean 2.288 (12) Å] are similar to those reported for the two other known ionic [(PPh3)3Cu]X salts with uncoordinated anions: X = FeCl4 (Saturino & Arif, 1993) with Cu—P bond lengths of 2.303 (2), 2.294 (2) and 2.288 (2) Å [mean 2.295 (8) Å]; and X = V(CO)6 (Doyle et al., 1985) with Cu—P bond lengths of 2.293 (1), 2.297 (1) and 2.296 (1) Å [mean 2.295 (2) Å]. These Cu—P bond lengths are shorter than those reported for four-coordinate complexes in which the anion is coordinated to the Cu atom. For example, with X = ClO4 (Dyason et al., 1986), the Cu—P bond lengths are 2.314 (5), 2.313 (7) and 2.317 (8) Å [mean 2.315 (2) Å], with X = NO3 (Dyason et al., 1986), the Cu—P bond lengths are 2.312 (2), 2.321 (2) and 2.338 (2) Å [mean 2.324 (13) Å], and with X = Cl (Gill et al., 1976), the Cu—P bond lengths are 2.348 (2), 2.351 (2) and 2.355 (2) Å [mean 2.351 (3) Å].

Experimental top

[Cu(PPh3)3(CH3CN)]PF6·CH3CN (0.25 g), prepared by crystallization from an acetonitrile solution of a 3:1 stoichiometric ratio of PPh3 and [Cu(CH3CN)4]PF6 as described for the synthesis of the analogous perchlorate complex (Barron et al., 1985), was suspended in ethanol (20 ml). The resultant mixture was gently boiled for 30 min giving a clear solution. The hot solution was filtered and left to stand overnight, yielding crystalline hexagonal plates of (I) (m.p. 502–506 K). Analysis found: C 65.2, H 4.7%; calculated for C54H45CuF6P4F6: C 65.2, H 4.6%.

Refinement top

H atoms were constrained as riding atoms, fixed to their parent C atoms at a C—H distance of 0.95 Å. Uiso(H) values were set to 1.2Ueq of the parent atom.

Experimental. The scan width was (1.58 + 0.30tanθ)° with an ω scan speed of 16° per minute (up to 4 scans to achieve I/σ(I) > 8). Stationary background counts were recorded at each end of the scan, and the scan time:background time ratio was 2:1.

Geometry. Bond distances, angles etc. have been calculated using the rounded fractional coordinates. All e.s.d.'s are estimated from the variances of the (full) variance-covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account in the estimation of distances, angles and torsion angles

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R-factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
