Title: Heterometallic aggregates of copper(I) with metalloligand Sn(edt)2 (edt = ethane-1,2-dithiolate): syntheses and structures of [Sn(edt)2Cl(mu-I)(mu3-I)(CuPPh3)3], [Sn(edt)2(mu-Br)2(mu3-Br)2(CuPPh3)4], and [{Sn(edt)2}3(mu-OH)3Cu5(PPh3)8][PF6]2.

Abstract:
The treatment of a slurry of an equimolar mixture of [Sn(edt)(2)] (edt = ethane-1,2- dithiolate) and [Et(4)N]Cl.xH(2)O with CuI in the presence of PPh(3) gave a tetranuclear compound, [Sn(edt)(2)Cl(mu-I)(mu(3)-I)(CuPPh(3))(3)] (1), which consists of a rectangular-pyramidal [Sn(edt)(2)Cl](-) moiety ligated by three [Cu(PPh(3))](+) fragments via the sulfur atoms of the edt(2-) ligands. The treatment of a slurry of [Sn(edt)(2)] and excess [Et(4)N]Br with [Cu(MeCN)(4)][PF(6)] in the presence of PPh(3) afforded a pentanuclear compound, [Sn(edt)(2)(mu-Br)(2)(mu(3)-Br)(2)(CuPPh(3))(4)] (2), which comprises two [(CuPPh(3))(2)(mu-Br)](+) fragments symmetrically ligating an octahedral trans-[Sn(edt)(2)Br(2)](2-) moiety via the sulfur and bromide atoms. Reaction of [Sn(edt)(2)] with [Cu(MeCN)(4)][PF(6)] and PPh(3) in a mixed MeCN/CH(2)Cl(2) solution yielded a novel octanuclear compound, [{Sn(edt)(2)}(3)(mu-OH)(3)Cu(5)(PPh(3))(8)][PF(6)](2) (3), which may be described as a triangular [{Sn(edt)(2)}(3)(mu-OH)(3)](3-) core chelated by three [Cu(PPh(3))(2)](+) species and capped by two [Cu(PPh(3))](+) species. The luminescent properties of compounds 1, 2, and 3 were investigated in a CH(2)Cl(2) solution at room temperature. Upon excitation at lambda > 360 nm, these compounds are luminescent in CH(2)Cl(2) solution with emissions having maxima at 422, 515, and 494 nm, respectively.
