Crystal structure of a low-spin poly[di-μ3-cyanido-di-μ2-cyanido-bis(μ2-2-ethylpyrazine)dicopper(I)iron(II)]
In the title metal–organic framework, [Fe(C6H8N2)2{Cu(CN)2}2] n , the low-spin FeII ion lies at an inversion centre and displays an elongated octahedral [FeN6] coordination environment. The axial positions are occupied by two symmetry-related bridging 2-ethylpyrazine ligands, while the equatorial positions are occupied by four N atoms of two pairs of symmetry-related cyanide groups. The CuI centre is coordinated by three cyanide carbon atoms and one N atom of a bridging 2-ethylpyrazine molecule, which form a tetrahedral coordination environment. Two neighbouring Cu atoms have a short Cu...Cu contact [2.4662 (7) Å] and their coordination tetrahedra are connected through a common edge between…
Crystal structure of catena-poly[[[(2-ethoxypyrazine-κN)copper(I)]-di-μ2-cyanido] [copper(I)-μ2-cyanido]]
The title compound, {[Cu(EtOpz)(CN)2][CuCN]}n, where EtOpz is 2-ethoxypyrazine, is a two-dimensional polymeric copper complex with different coordination environments of the two CuI ions. One Cu atom is coordinated to the 2-ethoxypyrazine molecule and two bridging cyanide ligands, equally disordered over two sites. The second Cu atom is coordinated by two disordered over two sites bridging cyanide groups. Two copper–cyanide chains are connected through Cu⋯Cu contact.
