(Triphenylphosphine-κP)[1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinomethyl)ethane-κ3P,P′,P′′]copper(I) tetrafluoridoborate

In the title mononuclear CuI complex, [Cu(C18H15P)(C41H39P3)]BF4, the cation has a basic rigid core structure reminiscent of the framework of diamond. The metal atom is coordinated by four P atoms in a distorted tetrahedral geometry, the distortion arising from the steric hindrance of the phenyl gro...
