An unusual anionic copper(I) cyanide 3D framework encapsulating a cationic copper(II) complex as a guest.
From the reaction of CuICN with conc-NH4OH, a host-guest type 3D network complex , [[CuII(NH3)4(H2O)](H2O)@[CuI3(CN)5]]n was isolated and characterised. A unique cationic complex guest [CuII(NH3)4(H2O)]2+ is encapsulated in the anionic host cage [CuI3(CN)5]2-.
