(2,2'-Bipyridine-?(2)N,N')bis-(4-formyl-benzoato-?O(1))copper(II).


ABSTRACT: The title mononuclear Cu(II) complex, [Cu(C(8)H(5)O(3))(2)(C(10)H(8)N(2))], is comprised of a Cu(II) cation, two 4-formyl-benzoate (L(-)) ligands and a 2,2'-bipyridine (bipy) ligand. The Cu(II) ion and bipy ligand lie on a crystallographic twofold rotation axis; the Cu(II) ion is coordinated by two N atoms from one bipy ligand and two O atoms from two different carboxyl-ate groups of two L(-) ligands, exhibiting effectively a distorted square-planar geometry. The complex mol-ecules are inter-linked to generate two-dimensional supra-molecular layers in the ab plane, formed by C-H?O hydrogen bonds, where the O acceptor is the O atom from the carboxyl-ate group not involved in coordination to the Cu(II) ion. The two-dimensional layers are stacked in a sequence via C-H?O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions where the formyl O atom acts as acceptor.
