(2-Methyl-4-oxo-4H-pyran-3-olato-κ2O3,O4)bis(triphenylphosphane-κP)copper(I)–triphenylphosphane–methanol (1/1/1)

Abstract

In the title compound, [Cu(C6H5O3)(C18H15P)2]·C18H15P·CH3OH, the pyran-4-one ring is appromimately planar (r.m.s deviation = 0.0138 Å), with the CuI atom 0.451 (5) Å out of the plane. The CuI atom has a distorted tetrahedral coordination. The O—Cu—O angle is 80.07 (8)° and the P—Cu—P angle is 123.49 (3)°. The crystal packing is stablized by intramolecular C—H...O interactions and intermolecular C—H...O and O—H...O interactions.
