Carbonyl adducts to CuMCl(4) (M = Al and Ga) have been characterized by single-crystal and/or powder X-ray diffraction, IR and diffuse reflectance UV/vis spectroscopy. Up to two equivalents of carbon monoxide ( approximately 200 cm(3)/g relative to stp) are sorbed at room temperature, with equilibrium binding pressures of below 0.5 atm of CO.
