Tetrakis[μ-2-(3-phenoxyphenyl)propionato-κ2O:O′]bis[(dimethylformamide-κO)copper(II)]

The title compound, [Cu2(C15H13O3)4(C3H7NO)2], is formed by the chelate coordination of four racemic fenoprofenate (fenoprofenate is 2,3-phenoxyphenyl propionate) anions and two dimethylformamide molecules to two copper(II) ions, building a paddle-wheel dinuclear molecule. The distorted square-pyram...

Description
Summary:The title compound, [Cu2(C15H13O3)4(C3H7NO)2], is formed by the chelate coordination of four racemic fenoprofenate (fenoprofenate is 2,3-phenoxyphenyl propionate) anions and two dimethylformamide molecules to two copper(II) ions, building a paddle-wheel dinuclear molecule. The distorted square-pyramidal coordination of each CuII atom is made up of four O atoms of the four fenoprofenate units and another O atom from a dimethylformamide molecule. The two enantiomeric forms of the fenoprofenate anions are present in the complex, in an optically inactive centrosymmetric arrangement.
