[Co(phen3)]2[Cu11I15]: a mixed-metal iodocuprate containing the novel [Cu10I15]5− and [Cu12I15]3−clusters

Abstract

A new mixed-metal compound, [Co(phen3)]2[Cu11I15] (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline), containing the two novel copper(I) iodide anionic clusters [Cu10I15]5− and [Cu12I15]3−, has been synthesized solvothermally and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The synthesis and structures of the two clusters are presented and the extensive edge-to-face and offset face-to-face interactions between the [Co(phen3)]2+ cations are described.
