Abstract
The title copper(I) complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 with cell parameters a = 9.1932(18), b = 9.1550(18), c = 16.757(4)Å, α = 84.72(2), β = 86.45(2), γ = 65.20(2)°, V = 1274.5(4)Å3, Z = 2, Dcal = 1.386 g/cm3 and T = 220(2)K. The structure was refined to the final R1 = 0.0491 using all 4570 observed reflections. The complex is monomeric with a terminal cyano group C-coordinated to the copper atom. The solid-state structure consists of a distorted tetrahedron geometry around the copper with an N2P donor set.
