title: Chlorido(1,3-dimethyl-thio-urea-κS)bis-(triphenyl-phosphine-κP)copper(I) acetonitrile hemisolvate.
abstract: The title compound, [CuCl(C(3)H(8)N(2)S)(C(18)H(15)P)(2)]·0.5CH(3)CN, was prepared by the reaction of copper(I) chloride with 1,3-dimethyl-thio-urea (dmtu) and triphenyl-phosphine (PPh(3)) in acetonitrile. The Cu(I) atom has a distorted tetra-hedral environment formed by two P atoms from triphenyl-phosphine, one S atom from the dmtu ligand and one Cl atom. In addition, the mol-ecules exhibit intra- and inter-molecular N-H⋯Cl inter-actions.
