description

A unique cyanide-bridge mixed-valence CuI/CuII clathrate of formula [CuI2(CN)3][{CuII(tren)}2(μ-CN)](CF3SO3)2 [tren = tris(2-aminoethyl)amine] containing cyanide-bridged [{CuII(tren)}2(μ-CN)]3 + binuclear cations stacked between anionic honeycomb layered copper(I) cyanide networks, was synthesized and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility studies showed that the cyanide bridge mediates a strong antiferromagnetic interaction between the copper(II) centers (J = − 160 cm− 1, the spin Hamiltonian being defined as H = − JSA⋅SB).
