Popis: Reaction of Me 3 SnCl/K 3 [Cu(CN) 4 ] with the bipodal nitrogen bases (μ-L): bis(4-pyridyl)- trans -ethene (bpe), bis(4-pyridyl)-1,2-ethane (bpeH 2 ), 4-cyanopyridine (cpy) and bis(4-pyridyl)- trans -1,4-divinylbenzene (pdvb) affords the new coordination polymers [CuCN·Me 3 SnCN·0.5bpe] ( 2 ), [CuCN·Me 3 SnCN·0.5bpeH 2 ] ( 3 ), [CuCN·Me 3 SnCN·cpy] ( 4 ) and [CuCN·pdvb] ( 5 ). While 2 and 3 display layered structures with rhomboic {Cu 2 (μ-CN) 2 } units as basic building blocks (Cu⋯Cu distances: 2.634 and 2.758 A, respectively), 4 crystallizes in a distorted-diamondoid structure 3 ∞ [Cu I {μ-CNSn(Me 3 )NC}{μ-cpy}] with four equivalent and independent, interlocking frameworks. In contrast, 5 consists of strongly corrugated, stapled sheets composed of parallel running –[Cu-pdvb] ∞ – zigzag chains tied together by CN bridges. Compounds 2 and 3 belong to the rapidly growing family of supramolecular assemblies containing the quite unusual [Cu 2 (μ-CN) 2 ] unit the repeated appearance of which raises the question if cuprophilic interactions therein are the basic cause of the existence of that family.
