Popis: X-ray crystal structures, solid-state photoluminescence, and Kurtz−Perry powder second harmonic generation (SHG) efficiencies of two novel noncentrosymmetric polymeric adducts of CuI with 4-acetylpyridine, a double-stranded “stair” and a single-stranded “chain”, are reported, the latter being a rare example of a [CuX(L)2]n motif (X = halide, L = pseudoaromatic η1-nitrogen donor ligand). In a series of structurally related noncentrosymmetric [CuX(L)]n chains and stairs, the powder SHG responses are interpreted in terms of both structural motifs (chains showing definitely greater efficiency than stairs) and “intrastrand” charge transfers involving the bridging halides.
