Abstract
The 2:1 cyanocuprate [Ar2Cu(CN)Li2(THF)4]∞ (1, Ar = [C6H4CH2NMe2-2]-) is obtained as the only product in the reaction of two equivalents of ArLi with one equivalent of CuCN in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at -78°C. The X-ray crystal structure reveals an ionic polymeric chain consisting of consecutive [Ar2Cu]- and [(THF)2LiCNLi(THF)2]+ units. Its composition in THF solution has been investigated.
