N)bis(3,5-dihydroxybenzoato-O)copper(II) trihydrateAbstract: In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Cu(C7H5O4)2(C7H6N2)2]·3H2O, the CuII ion is coordinated by two benzimidazole (bzim) molecules and two 3,5-dihydroxybenzoate (dhba) anions in a tetrahedrally distorted square-planar geometry. Aromatic ![[pi]](/logos/entities/pi_rmgif.gif)
- stacking is observed between parallel bzim ligands and between roughly parallel bzim and dhba units. An extensive O-H
O and N-HO hydrogen-bonding network helps to consolidate the crystal structure.
