In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Cu(NCS)-(C 4 H 3 IN 2 )] n , each Cu atom is coordinated by three thiocyanate anions and one 2-iodopyrazine ligand within a distorted tetrahedron. The Cu-coordinated units form dimers, which are connected into layers by the thiocyanate anions.

✦ Synopsis
The asymmetric unit of the title compound [Cu~8~
^I^Cu~2~
^II^(CN)~4~(NCS)~8~(C~6~H~8~N~2~)~7~], consists of six crystallographically independent Cu atoms, four thiocyanate anions and two cyanide anions, as well as four 2,6-dimethylpyrazine ligands. Two of the six Cu atoms and one of the four 2,6-dimethylpyrazine ligands are located on centres of inversion. The ligand on a special position is therefore disordered due to symmetry. Altogether there are two copper(II) and eight copper(I) cations in the formula unit. The copper(II) cations are each coordinated by four N atoms within a slightly distorted square-planar coordination. The copper(I) cations, on the other hand, are coordinated by four ligands or anions within distorted tetrahedra. From this arrangement, a three-dimensional coordination network is formed.
