摘要

Single crystals of the title polyoxometallate-based organic inorganic hybrid, [Cu(C12H8N2)(2)](4)[SiW12O40], were grown under hydrothermal conditions. The discrete [SiW12O40](4-) anions are of the Keggin type and are packed in a slightly distorted orthorhombic F-centred mode, with the complex [Cu-I(phen)(2)](+) cations (phen is 1,10-phenanthroline) located in the voids of this arrangement. The four independent Cu-I cations are situated in the centres of more or less distorted tetrahedra made up of N atoms from the phen ligands. The anions and cations are linked together via weak hydrogen-bonding interactions, forming an extended three-dimensional network. Additional stabilization is achieved via pi-pi interactions between different phen molecules of adjacent [Cu-I(phen)(2)](+) cations with shortest distances between 3.416 and 3.499 angstrom.
