Abstract
Reaction of a cluster precursor [Et4N]2[MoOS 3(CuCN)] (1) with equimolar [Cu(MeCN)4](PF6) in MeCN/aniline gave rise to an interesting polymeric cluster {[Et 4N]2[MoOS3Cu2(μ-CN)I 2·;aniline}n (2), while treatment of 1 in MeCN with 2 equiv of CuCN and KCN in H2O afforded the other polymeric cluster {[Et4N]4[MoOS3Cu3CN(μ′-CN)] 2(μ-CN)2}n (3). Generated by addition of one or two Cu+ onto the [MoOS3Cu] cluster core in 1, the butterfly shaped [MoOS3Cu2] fragment in 2 or the incomplete cubanelike [MoOS3Cu3] fragment in 3 was dimerized into a prismatic [MoOS3Cu2]2 cage core or a double incomplete cubanelike [MoOS3Cu3] 2 core. These two expanded cores serve as a unique planar 4-connecting node (2) or a rare chairlike 4-connecting node (3) to link equivalent nodes via cyanide bridges, forming two kinds of different 2D (4,4) networks. The third-order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of 1-3 in DMF were also investigated.
