Crystal structure of bis­[μ-N-(η(2)-prop-2-en-1-yl)piperidine-1-carbo­thio­amide-κ(2) S:S]bis­[(thio­cyanato-κN)copper(I)]

The title crystalline compound, [Cu(2)(NCS)(2)(C(9)H(16)N(2))(2)], was obtained from the reaction of copper(I) thio­cyanate (CuSCN) with (N-prop-2-en-1-yl)piperidine-1-carbo­thio­amide as a chelating and bridging thio­urea ligand in chloro­benzene. The Cu(2)S(2) core of the dimeric mol­ecule is situated on a crystallographic inversion centre. The copper atom is coordinated by a thio­cyanate nitro­gen atom, each sulfur atom of the two thio­urea ligands, and the C=C double bond of the ligand in a distorted tetra­hedral geometry. The dimers are linked by N—H⋯S hydrogen bonds, forming a network extending in two dimensions parallel to (100).
