Chlorobis[N'-ethoxycarbonyl-N-(4-methylphenyl)thiourea-kappaS]copper(I).

The title complex, chlorobis[ethyl N-[(4-methylanilino)thiocarbonyl]carbamate-kappaS] copper(I), [CuCl(C(11)H(14)N(2)O(2)S)(2)], was synthesized by the reaction of cupric chloride with the corresponding thiourea derivative. The complex has imposed crystallographic m symmetry and the Cu(I) coordination environment is trigonal planar, formed by two S atoms and one Cl atom. The formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds promotes the stability of the complex.
