  • The specific compound [Cu(C(5)H(4)NOS)(2)] is a significant fungicidal agent whose detailed structural properties warrant investigation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the precise three-dimensional crystal structure of the fungicidal material [Cu(C(5)H(4)NOS)(2)].
  • To elucidate the coordination geometry and bonding characteristics around the central copper atom.
  • To provide a foundational structural understanding for the development of improved fungicidal agents.

Main Methods:

  • Single-crystal X-ray diffraction was performed on a microcrystalline fragment of [Cu(C(5)H(4)NOS)(2)].
