In the title compound, [Cu 3I 3(C 5H 5NS) 3] n , a polymeric structure is formed along [100] through bridging iodide and pyridine-2-thione ligands. The metal atoms are engaged in [Cu 3S 3] and [Cu 2S 2] rings sharing Cu—S edges, with the [Cu 2S 2] rings located about inversion centers. Cu I atoms bridged by iodide ions exhibit the shortest Cu⋯Cu separation in the polymer [2.8590 (14) Å]. The three independent Cu I atoms all display distorted tetrahedral coordination geometries.
