Tetra-kis[μ2-1,1,1,3,3,3-hexa-fluoro-2-(tri-fluoro-meth-yl)propan-2-olato]tetra-kis-(μ3-2-methyl-propan-2-olato)octa-copper(I).


ABSTRACT: The title compound, [Cu8(C4H9O)4(C4F9O)4], crystallizes in the monoclinic space group, P21/n and contains a self-assembly of two C16H18Cu4F18O4 units linked by bridging tert-butyl groups [Cu-O bonds of length 2.3779 (15) and 2.4248 (15) Å], generating a centrosymmetric dimer. The asymmetrical unit, C16H18Cu4F18O4, contains an almost square-planar arrangement of the four Cu atoms linked by bridging tert-butyl and perfluorinated tert-butyl groups with Cu-Cu distances ranging from 2.7108 (4) to 2.7612 (4) Å and Cu -Cu-Cu angle values close to 90° [ranging from 89.459 (10)° to 90.025 (11)°]. These dimers are further linked by weak C-H⋯F and F⋯F inter-actions. As is commonly encountered in perfluorinated tert-butyl groups, one of the CF3 groups is disordered and was refined with two equivalent conformations with occupancies of 0.74 (3) and 0.26 (3).
