G. Steyl

Abstract: The title compound, [Cu(C₇H₅O₂)(C₁₈H₁₂F₃P)₂], a copper(I) tris(4-fluorophenyl)phosphine tropolonate derivative, is the first tropolonate complex with fluorinated arylphosphine ligands. The Cu^I atom has a distorted tetrahedral coordination; the most important geometrical parameters of the molecule are: Cu-P = 2.2377 (10) and 2.2335 (15) Å, Cu-O = 2.084 (2) and 2.082 (2) Å, O-Cu-O = 77.72 (10)°, P-Cu-P = 128.82 (4)° and O-C-C-O = -2.1 (5)°.
