Description
Summary:In the binuclear title compound, [Cu2(C8H4O4)Cl(C10H8N2)2(H2O)3]NO3·H2O, the two crystallographically independent CuII ions have similar coordination environments. One of the CuII ions has a square-pyramidal arrangement, which is defined by a water molecule occupying the apical position, with the equatorial ligators consisting of two N atoms from a 2,2′-bipyridine molecule, one carboxylate O atom from a terephthalate ligand and one O atom from a water molecule. The other CuII ion has a similar coordination environment, except that the apical position is occupied by a chloride ligand instead of a water molecule. An O—H...O and O—H...Cl hydrogen-bonded three-dimensional network is formed between the components.
