Diaquatetrakis(2,3,5-triiodobenzoato-²O:O')dicopper(II)(Cu-Cu) bis(methanol-O)tetrakis(2,3,5-triiodobenzoato-²O:O')dicopper(II)(Cu-Cu) methanol disolvate

Abstract: The title cocrystal, [Cu₂(C₇H₂I₃O₂)₄(H₂O)₂][Cu₂(C₇H₂I₃O₂)₄(CH₄O)₂]·2CH₄O, contains two dinuclear complexes. In both centrosymmetric molecules, four triiodobenzoates bridge a pair of Cu atoms. The Cu atoms show square-pyramidal coordination; for one, the apical position is occupied by a water molecule, and for the other, this site is occupied by a methanol molecule.
