Application

Tetrakis(acetonitrile)copper(I) hexafluorophosphate can be employed as a catalyst for the synthesis of triazolo[1,2-a]indazole-1,3,8-trione and 2H-indazolo[2,1-b]phthalazine-trione derivatives by the reaction of aryl aldehydes, dimedone and urazole or phthalhydrazide, respectively.


It can also be used as a copper precursor:


  • For the formation of Cu2S/CdS nanorod junctions by cationic exchange process.
  • To synthesize monometallic copper macrocyclic biquinazoline ligand [Cu(Mabiq)].
  • To prepare the cuprous complex [Cu(2-iQBO)(POP)]PF6]; where 2-iQBO=2-(1′-isoquinolyl)benzoxazole and POP=bis[2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl]ether, which can form luminescent pseudo-polymorphs.
  • For the synthesis of [Cu(NHC)2]PF6 complexes [(NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene] which can be further used in the hydrosilylation of carbonyl compounds.
  • In the synthesis of stimuli-responsive particle-based amphiphiles prepared by anisotropic click chemistry.
