Abstract
The crystal structures of tetra-/z3-chloro-tetrakis[(triphenyl phosphite-P)copper(I)], [CunC14(CI8HI503P)4], and tetra-#3-bromo-tetrakis [ (triphenyl phosphite-P) - copper(I)], [Cu4Br4(CI8H1503P)4], are described. Both have distorted 'cubane' CuaX4 cores. Distortion of the cubane structure is reflected in X--Cu--X angles > 90 ° and Cu--X--Cu angles < 90 °, and is more pronounced in the bromide complex.
