Steric Effects of Alkyl Substituents at N-Donor Bidentate Amines Direct the Nuclearity, Bonding and Bridging Modes in Isothiocyanato-Copper(II) Coordination Compounds

A series of Cu(II)-isothiocyanato coordination compounds derived from sterically hindered N-donor diamines were synthesized and characterized: catena-[Cu(Me3en)(μ-NCS)(NCS)] (1), catena-[Cu(NEt2Meen)(μ-NCS)(NCS)] (2), catena-[Cu(N,N,2,2-Me4pn)(μ-NCS)(NCS)] (3), the dimeric: [Cu2...
