A coordination polymer of copper(i) iodide with 654 topology constructed from Cu4I4(DABCO)4

The coordination polymer of copper(I) iodide Cu4I4(DABCO)2 (DABCO = 1,4-diazabicyclo-[2.2.2]octane) was prepared by solvothermal methods, and its structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The structure contains a novel 654 topology and displays interesting self-penetration.
