Complex 2 consists of a one-dimensional chain-dppzC u(Ⅱ)-Clμ_2-Cu(Ⅰ)-Cl-dppzC u(Ⅱ)-Clμ_2-Cu(Ⅰ)-with Cu(Ⅱ) and Cu(Ⅰ) atoms linked together by chloride anion. Complex 3 is a discrete complex,which is the same as complexes 1 and 2 involving two different copper valent Cu(Ⅰ) and Cu(Ⅱ). The Cu(Ⅰ) ion presents a pseudo-trihedral geometry,while the Cu(Ⅱ) ion presents a slightly distorted square-pyramidal geometry. This fact proved that halogen ions play a vital role in the assembly procedure. Our research results demonstrate the structural diversification that can be achieved by halogen ions mediated. Moreover,halogen ions-mediated self-assembly may provide useful information for further design of compounds with novel structures and properties.
