Bis[μ-bis-(diphenylphosphino)amine-k2 P:P′]bis-[(1,10- phenanthroline-k2 N,N′)copper(I)] bis-(tetrafluoridoborate) dichloromethane solvate

In the title compound, [Cu2(C25H21NP2)2(C12H8N2)2](BF4)2·CH2Cl2, two CuI atoms are bridged by two bis-(diphenyl-phosphino)amine (dppa) ligands to form an eight-membered Cu2P4N2 ring with crystallographic twofold rotation symmetry. The coordination polyhedron of each CuI atom is distorted tetra-hedral. Four F atoms are disordered equally over two sites. © International Union of Crystallography 2007.
