Description
Summary:The title compound, {[Cu2I2(C12H8N6)(C18H15P)2]·2CH3CN}n, contains centrosymmetric dinuclear Cu2I2(PPh3)2 units bridged by 3,6-bis(4-pyridyl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine ligands lying also across crystallographic inversion centers, giving a chain structure in the ab plane. The distorted tetrahedral CuI atoms in the dinuclear unit are coordinated by two bridging iodide anions, one pyridine N atom from the substituted tetrazine ligand and one terminal triphenylphosphine P-atom donor. The Cu...Cu distance is 2.8293 (12) Å, implying a weak Cu...Cu interaction.
