摘要

A siloxide-bridged dicopper(I) cation reacts with bis(catecholato)diboron to form the boryl-bridged dicopper cation {[(SID ipp)Cu](2)(mu-Bcat)}(+) (SIDipp = 1,3 -bis (2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolin-2-ylidene; cat = 1,2-C6H4O2). The solid-state structure shows an acute angle about the boryl, with a short intermetallic distance. Density functional theory calculations indicate a small but significant copper-copper bond order. The boryl-bridged cation deprotonates phenylacetylene and reacts with methanol to form a hydride-bridged dicopper cation.
