catena-Polycyclo-tetra--chlorotetracopper(I)-bis{-3-(2-morpholino-4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1,3-thiazol-5-ylidene)methylphenoxypropene}-2N,1'2;12,2'N
Abstract
Crystals of a new copper(I) complex of composition Cu4Cl4(C17H18N2O3S)2n have been obtained by alternating-current electrochemical synthesis. In the crystal structure, the Cu and Cl atoms form a chair-like Cu4Cl4 cyclic fragment. The organic ligand acts as a bridge, being connected via the C=C bond of the allyl group to a Cu atom from one inorganic cycle and via the N atom of the thiazole ring to a Cu atom of another copper-chloride fragment. The geometry of the center indicates that the Cu-(C=C) interaction is moderately effective.
