Chemical engineers ensure the efficiency and safety of chemical processes, adapt the chemical make-up of products to meet environmental or economic needs, and apply new technologies to improve existing processes. Formula: CCuNS. Introducing a new discovery about 1111-67-7, Name is Cuprous thiocyanate
Tris(2-pyridyl)phosphine oxide reacts with CuSCN to form a variety of luminescent complexes, depending on the specified metal-to-ligand ratio and the solvent used, viz. mononuclear [Cu(N,N?,N??-Py3P=O)(NCS)], dinuclear (N,N?-Py3P=O)Cu(SCNNCS)Cu[(N,N?-Py3P=O)], their co-crystal (2?:?1, correspondingly) and trinuclear {Cu(NCS)[SCNCu(N,N?,N??-Py3P=O)]2}. In the solid state, these complexes feature red-orange emission upon UV photoexcitation. The reaction of tris(2-pyridyl)phosphine with CuSCN quantitatively produces an almost insoluble coordination polymer, [Cu(Py3P)NCS]n, which exhibits bright green emission. The synthesized compounds are the first members of the hitherto unknown family of Cu(i) thiocyanate complexes supported by tripodal ligands.
