In the title binuclear copper(II) complex, [Cu2(C7H3ClNO4)4(H2O)2], each of the two independent CuII center is five-coordinated by four O atoms of the carboxylate groups in the basal plane and one O atom of a water molecule in the apical position, in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry. The Cu—Cu distance is 2.6458 (4) Å. In the the dinuclear units are linked into a three-dimensional network by O—H⋯O, C—H⋯O and C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds. One of the Cl atoms is disordered over two positions with occupancies of 0.650 (2) and 0.350 (2).

An ethanol solution (50 ml) of 2-chloro-4-nitrobenzoic acid (4.84 g, 0.024 mol) was added to a solution of copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate (3.00 g, 0.012 mol) in ethanol (50 ml). This mixture was then stirred and refluxed and left to cool down to room temperature. After a few days of slow evaporation, blue crystals which are suitable for X-ray analysis were collected.
Water H atoms were located in a difference Fourier map and were allowed to ride on the O atom, with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O). All other H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model, with C-H = 0.93 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C). Atom Cl3 attached to one of the phenyl rings is disordered over two positions with occupancies of 0.650 (2) and 0.350 (2). The structure shows a pseudo centre of symmetry. It can be solved and refined in the
P21/c but the final R value (0.098) is large. The highest residual electron density peak is located at 1.02 Å from Cl3A and the deepest hole is located at 0.63Å from Cu1. The crystal is a twin with BASF = 0.526 (8).Data collection: APEX2 (Bruker, 2005); cell

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

In our quest to study the biological properties of CuII complexes, we have managed to prepare several water soluble CuII complexes. CuII complexes have been known to exhibit DNA cleavage activity in vitro (Balaraman et al., 2006). Herein, we report the preparation and crystal structure of the title compound.
The coordination geometry around each CuII atom is square-pyramidal. Four O atoms, one each from the carboxylate groups of four organic ligands, form the basal plane with an average Cu—O bond distance of 1.968 (2) Å. The O atom of the water molecules lie in the apical position with an average Cu—O distance of 2.148 (2) Å. The Cu1 and Cu2 atoms are slightly displaced from the corresponding basal plane by 0.2037 (2) and 0.1959 (2) Å, respectively. The Cu1—Cu2 distance is 2.6458 (4) Å. Similar characteristics of the copper atom were also reported by Kabbani et al. (2004) and Stachová et al. (2004).
Bond lengths in the ligand show normal values (Allen et al., 1987). Dihedral angles between nitro groups and benzene rings are: 6.3 (4) [C1-C6/O9,O10,N1], 16.0 (3) [C8-C13/O11,O12,N2], 6.5 (4) [C15-C20/O13,O14,N3] and 19.9 (3) Å [C22-C27/O15,O16,N4].
In the crystal structure, O—H···O, C—H···O and C—H···Cl intermolecular interactions (Table 2) form a three-dimensional network (Fig.2).
