In the title dinuclear complex, [Cu(2)(C(5)H(10)NO(2))(2)(C(10)H(8)N(2))(3)(H(2)O)(2)](NO(3))(2)·2H(2)O, each of the two l-valinate anions chelates a Cu(II) center through the amino N and carboxyl-ate O atom, forming a five-membered ring. A 4,4'-bipyridine mol-ecule bridges two water-coordinated Cu atoms, each of which is connected to another 4,4'-bipyridine, giving rise to a square-pyramidal coordination geometry for the Cu(II) centers. The dinuclear dications, nitrate anions and uncoord-inated ...[more]
