Facile synthesis of one-dimensional organometallic–organic hybrid polymers based on a diphosphorus complex and flexible bipyridyl linkers

Zusammenfassung

The selective synthesis of a series of new "ladderlike'' onedimensional organometallic-organic hybrid polymers is shown. The polymers are obtained from the reaction of the diphosphorus ligand complex [Cp2Mo2(CO)(4)(eta(2)-P-2)] with the copper salt [Cu(CH3CN)(4)]BF4 in the presence of flexible organic bipyridyl linkers in high selectivity. This unique behaviour is supported by DFT calculations.
