Bis(3-methyl-pyridinium) tetra-chlorido-cuprate(II).

ABSTRACT: The title compound, (C(6)H(8)N)(2)[CuCl(4)], is composed of two 3-methyl-pyridinium cation and one tetra-chloridocuprate(II) anion. The geometry around the copper(II) ion is that of a distorted tetra-hedron. In the crystal structure, the anions and cations are linked by three different N-H?Cl hydrogen bonds. In addition, the crystal structure exhibits aromatic ?-? inter-actions between the pyridinium rings of two discrete units [centroid-centroid distance = 3.704?(2)?Å].

The title compound, (C(6)H(8)N)(2)[CuCl(4)], is composed of two 3-methyl-pyridinium cation and one tetra-chloridocuprate(II) anion. The geometry around the copper(II) ion is that of a distorted tetra-hedron. In the crystal structure, the anions and cations are linked by three different N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds. In addition, the crystal structure exhibits aromatic π-π inter-actions between the pyridinium rings of two discrete units [centroid-centroid distance = 3.704 (2) Å]. ...[more]
