The title compound, [Cu2(NO3)2(OH)2(C12H8N4O)2(H2O)2]n, consists of a neutral polymeric CuII complex in which each CuII atom has a distorted octahedral geometry defined by a pyridyl N atom from a 3-(pyridin-3-yl)-5-(pyridin-4-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole ligand and five O atoms from a water molecule, two nitrates and two hydroxides. Two CuII ions are bridged by two hydroxide anions resulting in a Cu2O2 loop, located across an inversion center and connected by the nitrate anions into a broad two-dimensional polymeric structure parallel to (100). In the crystal, there are O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the coodinated water molecule and the nitrate and hydroxide, and between the hydroxide and the nitrate. Intermolecular π–π interactions are present between pyridine rings in adjacent two-dimensional structures, with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.582 (2) Å.

A solution of 3-(pyridin-3-yl)-5-(pyridin-4-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole(0.2 mmol) in methanol(10 ml) was layered carefully on the solution of Cu(NO3)2.3H2O(0.2 mmol) in water(5 ml) in a straight test tube. The test tube was covered and kept in the refrigerator. Green crystals suitable for X-ray
were obtained after 2 weeks.H atoms bonded to O atoms were located in a difference map and refined with distance restraints of O—H = 0.86 (2) Å. Other H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model with C—H = 0.93(aromatic) and C—H = 0.96(CH3) Å. All H atoms were refined with Uiso(H) = 1.2 (1.5 for methyl groups) timesUeq(C).
The title compound, [Cu2(C12H8N4O)2(H2O)2(OH)2 (NO3)2]n, was obtained unintentionally during an attempted synthesis of infinite network complex of copper(II) with a rod-like nitrogen containing ligand, 3-(pyridin-3-yl)-5-(pyridin-4-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole(Chiou and Shine, 1989).
In the structure, each CuII ion has a distorted octahedral geometry defined by a pyridyl N atom from a 3-(pyridin-3-yl)-5-(pyridin-4-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole ligand and five O atoms from a water molecule, two nitrates, and two hydroxides(Fig.1). For each CuII center, the equatorial sites are occupied by a water molecule, a pyridyl N atom, and two hydroxides, the apical sites being occupied by two oxygen atoms of nitrate anions. The equatorial bond distances are in the range 1.945 (2)-1.999 (2) Å while the axial bond distances are 2.431 (2) and 2.716 (2) Å. Neighbouring CuII ions are connected by two hydroxide anions into Cu2O2 loops with a Cu···Cu distance of 2.956 (1) Å. Similar Cu2O2 structure can be constructed by acetates (Sarkar et al. 2008). The result is the formation of centrosymmetric dimeric units, further connected by the nitrate anions to form broad two-dimensional structures parallel to (100).
In the crystal, there are O—H···O hydrogen bonds between the coodinated water molecule and the nitrate or hydroxide, and between the hydroxide and the nitrate. The details are listed in Table 1. There are also intermolecular π—π interactions between pyridine rings in neighboring two-dimensional structures, with a centroid—centroid distance of 3.582 (2)Å (Fig 2).

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. |

The title compound, [Cu2(C12H8N4O)2(H2O)2(OH)2 (NO3)2]n, was obtained unintentionally during an attempted synthesis of infinite network complex of copper(II) with a rod-like nitrogen containing ligand, 3-(pyridin-3-yl)-5-(pyridin-4-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole(Chiou and Shine, 1989).
In the structure, each CuII ion has a distorted octahedral geometry defined by a pyridyl N atom from a 3-(pyridin-3-yl)-5-(pyridin-4-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole ligand and five O atoms from a water molecule, two nitrates, and two hydroxides(Fig.1). For each CuII center, the equatorial sites are occupied by a water molecule, a pyridyl N atom, and two hydroxides, the apical sites being occupied by two oxygen atoms of nitrate anions. The equatorial bond distances are in the range 1.945 (2)-1.999 (2) Å while the axial bond distances are 2.431 (2) and 2.716 (2) Å. Neighbouring CuII ions are connected by two hydroxide anions into Cu2O2 loops with a Cu···Cu distance of 2.956 (1) Å. Similar Cu2O2 structure can be constructed by acetates (Sarkar et al. 2008). The result is the formation of centrosymmetric dimeric units, further connected by the nitrate anions to form broad two-dimensional structures parallel to (100).
In the crystal, there are O—H···O hydrogen bonds between the coodinated water molecule and the nitrate or hydroxide, and between the hydroxide and the nitrate. The details are listed in Table 1. There are also intermolecular π—π interactions between pyridine rings in neighboring two-dimensional structures, with a centroid—centroid distance of 3.582 (2)Å (Fig 2).
