Phosphinoamino complexes of copper(I) and silver (I): A combined NMR and IR spectroscopy, and electrospray ionization and fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry analysis

Bidentate 'PN' and tetradentate 'P₂N₂' ligands form stable silver(I) complexes, which were characterized by NMR and IR spectroscopy. Conductivity measurements indicate an ionic nature of the compounds in solution. A thorough mass spectrometric study (electrospray ionization and fast atom bombardment) of these complexes and the corresponding Cu(I) analogues supports the NMR and IR structural information.
