title: Synthesis and Structures of [LCu(I)(SSi(i)Pr3)] (L = triphos, carbene) and Related Compounds.
abstract: The mononuclear Cu(I) complexes [LCu(I)(SSi(i)Pr3)] (L = 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinomethyl)ethane (triphos), 1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene (IMes)) have been prepared by ligand displacement from [LCu(I)Cl] with (i)Pr3SiS(-). Both compounds are colorless, diamagnetic species and have been characterized structurally by X-ray crystallography. The compounds [(IMes)Cu(η(1)κ(S)-SC(O)CH3)] and [(triphos)Cu(η(1)κ(S)-SC(S)OCH3)] have been prepared in the context of synthesis aimed at [LCu(η(1)κ(S)-SCOS)] and [LCu(η(1)κ(S)-SCS2)] complexes, which are intended as synthons toward an analogue of the Mo(μ-OSCO)Cu intermediate proposed as occurring in the catalytic cycle of carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH).
