Abstract
In the title compound, [Cu(C6H10NS2)I(C10H8N2)], the CuII ion is coordinated by one iodide ion, two N atoms of the bipyridine ligand and two S atoms from the piperidinecarbodithioate ligand in a distorted square-pyramidal environment. π–π stacking interactions, with centroid–centroid distances of 3.643 (4) Å, between pyridyl rings of the bipyridyl ligands of neighbouring molecules lead to chains propagating parallel to the a axis.

Comment
Research into transition metal complexes has been rapidly expanding because of their fascinating structural diversity, as well as their potential applications as functional materials and enzymes (Noro et al., 2000; Yaghi et al., 1998). Dialkyldithiocarbamate anions, which are typical sulfur ligands, acting as monodentate, bidentate or bridging ligands, are often chosen for the preparation of complexes with a considerable structural variety (Engelhardt et al., 1988; Fernández et al., 2000; Koh et al., 2003). I report here the crystal structure of the title copper(II) complex, (I), containing a piperidyldithiocarbamate ligand.
The crystal structure of (I) is built of discrete molecules of the CuII complex (Fig. 1). The CuII ion is five-coordinated in a distorted square-pyramidal environment by one I atom in the apical position, two N atoms from the bipyridine ligand and two S atoms from the piperidyldithiocarbamate ligand in the basal plane (Table 1).
There is a π-π stacking interaction between the pyridyl rings R1 [N(2)/C(7)–C(11)] and R2 [N3/C(12)–C(16)] with a centroid-to-centroid distance of 3.643 (4) Å. These face-to-face interactions result in the complexes assembling into chains.
Experimental
A mixture of Cu(Ac)2.H2O (0.08 g, 0.4 mmol), NaS2CNC5H10.2H2O (0.09 g, 0.4 mmol), 2,2'-bipyridine (0.06 g 0.4 mmol) and NaI.2H2O (0.07 g, 0.4 mmol) was stirred in DMF (15 ml). 2-PrOH was diffused into the resulting solution, yielding single crystals of (I).
Refinement
H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined as riding atoms, with C—H = 0.93 (aromatic) or 0.97 Å (piperidyl); Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

Special details
| Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
| Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |
