An azido–CuII–triazolate complex with utp-type topological network, showing spin-canted antiferromagnetism.

An azido–metal–1,2,4-triazolate coordination polymer, [Cu(trz)(N3)]n (trz = 1,2,4-triazolate) was synthesized using hydrothermal methods; the complex has a rare three-dimensional non-interpenetrated utp or (10,3)-d topological network structure and exhibits spin-canted antiferromagnetism at low temperature.
