Preparation of copper(1) carbonyl hexafluoroarsenate, CuCO+AsF6, and copper(1) trifluorophosphine hexafluoroarsenate, CuPF3+AsF6

Abstract
PF3 and CO react with CuAsF6 in SO2 solution to form 1:1 addition compounds, the vibrational spectra of which are consistent with the formulations [CuPF3]+[AsF6] and [CuCO]+[AsF6]. The latter has a v[CO] stretch at 2180 ± 5 cm−1, the highest yet observed for a monocarbonyl.
