Abstract: In the title complex, [CuI(C₉H₂₀N₂S)₃]·0.6H₂O, the Cu^I and I atoms lie on a threefold rotation axis. The partially occupied water molecule is disordered across an inversion centre. Each Cu^I centre binds to the S atoms of three N,N'-dibutylthiourea ligands and I^- in a distorted tetrahedral environment. N-HI and C-HS interactions are observed in the complex molecule. Intermolecular N-HS hydrogen bonds link the molecules into a two-dimensional network parallel to the ab plane.
