Efficient one-pot green synthesis of tetrakis(acetonitrile)copper(i) complex in aqueous media†
Abstract
New simple, fast, effective and environmentally friendly one-pot method for the synthesis of extensively used tetrakis(acetonitrile)copper(I) complexes with BF4−, PF6− and ClO4− counterions is invented and optimized. The approach suggested allows using water as solvent and minimizes amounts of toxic organic reagents in the synthetic protocol.
