Stabilising a quinonoid-bridged dicopper(I) complex by use of a dppf (dppf = (diphenylphosphino)ferrocene) backbone.
An unprecedented quinonoid-bridged dicopper(I) complex is described together with its redox, EPR and structural properties, which indicate a non-innocent role of the zwitterion-derived bridging ligand.
