The Crystal Structure of Di-μ-Bromo-tris(triphenylphosphine)dicopper(II)

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

The crystal structure of the Cu2Br2(PPh3)3·1.5C6H6 complex has been determined by three dimensional X-ray analysis. The crystals are monoclinic, and the space group is P21/c, with unit-cell parameters of a=14.122 (3), b=19.573 (4), c=25.985 (7) Å, β=128.99 (1)°, and Z=4. In the Cu2Br2(PPh3)3 molecule, one copper atom is three-coordinate, and the other, four-coordinate.
