Novel copper complexes based on the thiocyanate bridge - Synthesis, X-ray studies and magnetic properties

► Three novel copper complexes based on the tiocyanate bridge were synthesized and characterized. ► {[CuII(bpzm)(SCN)][CuII(bpzm)(MeOH)][CuI(SCN)4]}n is a mixed-valence coordination polymer. ► Magnetic measurements confirm weak antiferromagnetic interactions between Cu(II) centers.
