A novel 1D neutral coordination polymer, {[Cu(dtmp)(dmf)Cl2]dmf}n (1) (dtmp=1,6-di(triazole-1-yl-methyl)-4-methylphenol, dmf=dimethyl formamide) was synthesized by reacting CuCl2 Æ 2H2O with the dtmp ligand. The crystal and molecular structure of the complex was determined by X-ray diffraction, in which the coordination geometry around the copper center is slightly distorted trigonal bypyramidal. One-dimensional chains have been formed through the metal and the ligand via oordination bonds, which are assembled further into a two-dimensional network by inter-chain synergic π-π stacking and hydrogen bonding.
