Under identical conditions, CuI reacts with PhS(CH 2 ) 8 SPh and p ‐TolS(CH 2 ) 8 STol‐ p affording, respectively, a luminescent 1D coordination polymer [Cu 4 I 4 {μ 2 ‐PhS(CH 2 ) 8 SPh} 2 ] n ( 1 ) and an unprecedented 2D network [Cu 8 I 8 {μ 2 ‐ p ‐TolS(CH 2 ) 8 STol‐ p } 3 (MeCN) 2 ] n ( 2 ), which incorporate closed‐cubane Cu 4 I 4 and octanuclear Cu 8 I 8 clusters of as connecting nodes. Their thermal and photophysical properties exhibit notable differences.
