Bis{2-[(diisopropyl­phosphan­yl)amino]­pyridine-κ(2) N (1),P}copper(I) hexa­fluorido­phosphate

The crystal structure of the title compound, [Cu(C(11)H(19)N(2)P)(2)]PF(6), is composed of discrete [Cu(PN-iPr)(2)](+) cations [PN-iPr is 2-(diisopropyl­phosphanyl­amino)­pyridine] and PF(6) (−) anions. The Cu(I) atom is bis-chelated by two independent PN-iPr ligands. It has a distorted tetra­hedral coordination by two P atoms [Cu—P = 2.2277 (4) and 2.2257 (4) Å] and two pyridine N atoms [Cu—N = 2.0763 (11) and 2.0845 (12) Å]. Bond angles about Cu vary from 85.11 (3) (P—Cu—N) to 130.37 (2)° (P—Cu—P). In the crystal, N—H⋯F hydrogen bonds link the Cu complexes and the PF(6) (−) anions into continuous chains, which show a cross-bedded spatial arrangement. In addition, several weaker C—H⋯F inter­actions contribute to the coherence of the structure.
