Aqua(2-hydrazino-1,10-phenanthroline)nitratocopper(II) nitrate

H. L. Li and Q. S. Liu

Abstract: In the title mononuclear complex, [Cu(NO₃)(C₁₂H₁₀N₄)(H₂O)]NO₃, the Cu^II ion assumes a distorted square-pyramidal geometry. There is a - stacking interaction between the five-membered ring containing the Cu atom and a pyridine ring of a neighboring complex [centroid-centroid distance = 3.567 (2) Å and a perpendicular distance of 3.394 Å]. The crystal structure also contains intermolecular N-HO, O-HO and C-HO hydrogen bonds, linking cations and anions. In addition, there is a short intermolecular contact [2.784 (6) Å] between an O atom of the coordinated nitrate group and its symmetry-related atom.
