“…This chromophore could be modified on the surface of coinage metal clusters for dual emission character [6] or stabilizing the cluster core via intra-cluster interactions [7]. In order to fix the naphthalene group on the surface of copper clusters for functional coinage complex [8][9][10][11][12], we try to mix 2-naphthalenethiol and bipyridine (auxiliary ligand) with CuI under the solvothermal conditions. The title compound, was obtained as the by-product from the coordination reaction, which was an unexpected product here from the Williamson ether synthesis [13] via CuI as catalyst.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
