First X‐Ray Crystal Structure and Internal Reference Diffusion‐Ordered NMR Spectroscopy Study of the Prototypical Posner Reagent, MeCu(SPh)Li(THF)3

Abstract: Grow slow: The usual direct treatment of MeLi and CuSPh did not yield X-ray quality crystals of MeCu(SPh)Li. An indirect method starting from Me2CuLi⋅LiSPh and chalcone afforded the desired crystals by the slow reaction of the intermediate π-complex (see scheme). This strategy produced the first X-ray crystal structure of a Posner cuprate. A complementary NMR study showed that the contact ion pair was also the main species in solution.

“…As mentioned before (see Group 10), a bimetallic species showing a Pt–Cu interaction supported by a bridging CH 3 group has been described by Chen et al . Two further complexes of this class, which have been provided recently by Bertz and Ogle, consist in cuprate anions supported by an alkene ligand in one case (vide infra, Reactivity Section), and by a phenyltiolate in the other one (Scheme ) . A rare example of a photoluminescent copper cluster with bridging methyl groups was reported in 2010 by Cavell and co‐workers …”

“…The former lithium–oxygen bond length is significantly less than the latter bond lengths (see Figure 1 caption). Lithium methyl(di‐ tert ‐butylphosphido)cuprate(I)15 and lithium methyl(phenylthio)cuprate(I)16 also have structures in which a lone pair of electrons is donated from a heteroatom to a (THF) 3 Li + moiety in the solid state; they can be considered contact ion pairs 2…”

“…This technique has recently been advanced for the characterisation of other organometallic aggregates. [53][54][55][56][57][58] The most commonly reported method involves obtaining empirical formula weights (FW) of unknown aggregates from their experimentally determined diffusion coefficients (D)a nd then comparing with FW of predicted species. However,a lthough this method works well for organometallic speciesi nvolving lighter metals (such as lithium [55] )w hich tend to possess consistent densities (ca.…”
