Chlorobis(1,10-phenanthroline)copper(II) 5-nitroisophthalate(1-) dihydrate

M.-D. Ye, H.-P. Xiao and M.-L. Hu

Abstract: In the title compound, [CuCl(C₁₂H₈N₂)₂](C₈H₄NO₆)·2H₂O, the coordination geometry of the Cu atom is best described as distorted trigonal bipyramidal, made up of four N atoms of two phenanthroline molecules and one chloride anion. The 5-nitroisophthalate(1-) anion is uncomplexed and balances the charge. - stacking and intermolecular hydrogen-bond interactions link the components units into a three-dimensional network structure.
