Abstract
The ligand, morpholin-4-yl-pyridin-2-ylmethylene-amine 4-ampc, and its corresponding copper(I) complexes, [Cu(4-ampc)2]BPh4 1, and [Cu(4-ampc)(PPh3)2]BPh4 2, have been synthesized and characterized by CHN analyses, 1H-NMR, IR, and UV-Vis spectroscopies. The crystal and molecular structures of [Cu(4-ampc)2]BPh4 1 were determined by X-ray crystallography from a single-crystal. The coordination polyhedron about copper(I) is best described as a distorted tetrahedron. Quasireversible and irriversible redox behaviors were observed for 1 and 2, respectively.
