A total of 4082 unique reflections were collected, of which 2916 with I 〉 2σ（I） were observed. The Cu（Ⅱ） atom is five-coordinated in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry by one I atom in the apical position, two S atoms from a prdtc ligand and two N atoms from a phen ligand in the basal plane. There exist face-to-face aromatic π-π stacking interactions between adjacent phen ligands stabilizing the structure and making the complex assemble into a 1D structure along the a axis. It can be concluded that the difference of the dtc flexibility and reaction conditions result in the structural difference between complex 1 and CuI（dmdtc）（phen） （dmdtc = N, N-dimethyldithiocarbamate）.
