Abstract

Abstract The ligand 1, 3-bis (pyrazol-1′-yl) propane (bpp) has been prepared by reacting 1, 3-dichloropropane with two equivalents of pyrazole. After reaction of bpp with copper (II) tetrafluoroborate, three different compounds were obtained, two with Cu II and one with Cu I as cation, depending on the preparative method. The formation of single crystals of these compounds was only observed when 1-(3-chloropropyl) pyrazole (ppc) was present in the ...
