trans-{1,8-Bis[(S)-1-phenyl­eth­yl]-1,3,6,8,10,13-hexa­aza­cyclo­tetra­deca­ne}bis(thio­cyanato­-κN)copper(II)

In the title thio­cyanate-coordinated aza-macrocyclic copper(II) complex, [Cu(NCS)(2)(C(24)H(38)N(6))], the Cu(II) atom is coordinated by the four secondary N atoms of the aza-macrocyclic ligand and by the two N atoms of the thio­cyanate ions in a tetra­gonally distorted octa­hedral geometry. The average equatorial Cu—N bond length is shorter than the average axial Cu—N bond length [2.010 (2) and 2.528 (4) Å, respectively]. An N—H⋯N hydrogen-bonding inter­action between the secondary amine N atom and the adjacent thio­cyanate ion leads to a polymeric chain along the a axis.
