Abstract

The reaction of the complex [Rh4(µ-PyS2)2(cod)4], containing two juxtaposed coordination donor sites, with CuCl creates the coordination polymer [ClCuRh4(µ-PyS2)2(cod)4]n. This polymeric structure results from the self-assembly of alternating rhodium tetranuclear complexes and CuCl as linking units, and shows zigzag chains containing exclusively homochiral tetranuclear building blocks
