Abstract

One-pot solvothermal treatments of acetonitrile, water, LiOH, Cu(CH 3COO)2·H2O and 3-(5-(pyridin-4-yl)-1H-1, 2,4-triazol-3-yl)pyridine (HL) yielded a rare copper cyanide coordination polymer, [Cu2(L) (CN)]n (1). The existence of a cyanide group in compound 1 may be due to the decomposition of acetonitrile at the relatively high temperature (160 C) and autogenous pressure of the reaction. Compound 1 has been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, XRPD, IR, and elemental analysis. Compound 1 is a 3D copper cyanide coordination polymer, and a ({6.8.10}2{6.83.102}) topology in 1 is created. In addition, the optical and catalytic properties have been investigated.
