A new polymorph of [Cu 2 Cl 2 (CH 2 =CH–CH 2 ) 2 O] has been obtained by an alternating‐current electrochemical synthesis starting from CuCl 2 and triallylphosphite. Diallylether was obtained in statu nascendi via transetherification of triallylphosphite. The structure is monoclinic, space group P 2 1 / n , a = 7.6738(7), b = 6.5128(4), c = 18.2689(18) Å, β = 91.644(11)°, V = 912.67(13) Å 3 (at 150 K), Z = 4; R 1 = 0.0339, wR 2 = 0.0822. Flexibility of the organic ligand and weak interactions copper···halogen have been identified as the main reasons enabling polymorphism in molecular π‐complexes of copper(I).
