Abstract

The reaction of 1,3-bis(pyridyl-4-ylthio)propan-2-one with Cu(ClO4)2·6H2O gave a new complex {[Cu2(4PDS)2(ox)(H2O)4](ClO4)2}n (4PDS = 4,4′-dipyridyldisulfide, ox = oxalate), with 4PDS and ox being created by the Cu(II)-assisted oxidation of 1,3-bis(pyridyl-4-ylthio)propan-2-one. The complex determined by X-ray crystallography is a 1D polymer, in which metallacycles formed by two 4PDS and two Cu(II) ions are further bridged through ox anions. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group Fddd, with lattice parameters a = 15.106(2), b = 23.667(4), c = 27.637(3) Å and Z = 8.
