A novel three-dimensional copper(II) coordination polymer with 1,4-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene and thiocyanate.
In the title complex, poly[copper(II)-di-2-thiocyanato-2-1,4-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene], [Cu(NCS)2(C12H12N6)]n, the CuII atom lies on an inversion centre in a tetragonally distorted octahedral environment. Four N atoms from thiocyanate and 1,4-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene (bbtz) ligands fill the equatorial positions, and S atoms from symmetry-related thiocyanate ligands fill the axial positions. The benzene ring of the bbtz ligand lies about an inversion centre. Single thiocyanate bridges link the CuII atoms into two-dimensional sheets containing an unprecedented 16-membered [Cu4(-NCS-N:S)4] ring. The bbtz ligands further link the two-dimensional sheets into a three-dimensional network.
