Crystal Structure Of Catena-Poly[[Bis(N-Acethylthiomorpholine-Kappa S)Copper(I)]-Mu-Iodido]

The reaction of copper(I) iodide with N-acetylthiomorpholine (L, C6H11NOS) in acetonitrile results in a coordination polymer with composition [CuI(L)(2)](n). The Cu-I atom is coordinated by two S atoms and two I atoms, adopting a distorted tetrahedral environment. The mu(2)-bridging mode of the I atoms gives rise to chains extending parallel to [010]. C-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen-bonding interactions between the chains lead to a three-dimensional network.
