Copper(I) iodide in methanol absorbs carbon monoxide at room temperature and atmospheric pressure in the presence of ethylenediamine, en, giving colorless solution. Depending on the CuI/en molar ratio and the anion present, the following thermally stable copper(I) carbonyls have been isolated as white crystals: [Cu(en)2(CO)]I (I) [vCO(Nujol) 2060 cm-1]; [Cu2(en)3(CO)2]I2 (II) [vCO(Nujol) 2062 cm-1]; [Cu2(en)3(CO)2](PPh4)2 (III) [vCO(Nujol) 2078 cm-1]. The structure of III consists of discrete dimeric cations [Cu2(en)3(CO)2]2+ and BPh4- anions. The two centrosymmetric copper atoms are surrounded ,n a pseudotetrahedral geometry by a set of three nitrogen atoms, provided by one chelating and one bridging en, and a carbon monoxide molecule. The bond distances associated with the Cu-C-O units are Cu-C = 1.73 (1) and 1.75 (1) ? and C-O = 1.17 (2) 1.16 (2) ?. The addition of NaBPh4 to a methanolic solution of Cu(en)COCl (IV) gives at -20°C white crystals of [Cu(en)(CO)PhBPh3] (V) [vCO(Nujol) 2117 cm-1]. The ion-pair nature of V was established by an X-ray analysis. Copper(I) interacts with both a carbon monoxide molecule and one of the C=C bonds of the BPh4- anion, in a pseudo-trigonal-pyramidal geometry completed by an ethylenediamine molecule. The Cu-C and C-O bond distances are 1.806 (6) and 1.110 (7) ?, respectively. Crystallographic details for III are as follows: space group P21/n (monoclinic), a = 13.769 (2) ?, b = 19.184 (3) ?, c = 9.833 (2) ?, β = 90.99 (2)° V = 2596.9 ?3 Z = 2. The final R factor was 4.7% for 3088 observed reflections. Crystallographic details for V are as follows: space group P21/c (monoclinic), a = 10.301 (1) ?, b = 12.234 (1) ?, c = 18.390 (2) ?, β = 91.11 (1)°, V = 2317.1 ?3, Z = 4. The final R factor was 4.9% for 3150 observed reflections.
