Rubidium zinc iron(III) phosphate is isostructural to KCoAl(PO4)2. Its structure consists of a three-dimensional framework built up from corner-sharing PO4 and (Zn,Fe)O4 tetrahedra. This mode of linkage forms tunnels parallel to the [100], [010] and [001] directions in which the Rb+ ions are located.

In the title copper(II) complex, the metal atom is coordinated by two N atoms and two O atoms from two bidentate (E)-1-[(2,4,6-tribromophenyl)diazenyl]naphthalen-2-ol ligands, forming a slightly distorted square-planar environment. In the isotypic nickel(II) and palladium(II) complexes, the metal atoms are located on centres of inversion, hence the metal coordination spheres have perfect square-planar geometries.

The 6-methyl-2-oxo-N-(quinolin-6-yl)-2H-chromene-3-carboxamide coumarin derivative displays intramolecular N—H⋯O and weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which probably contribute to the approximate planarity of the molecule [dihedral angle between the coumarin and quinoline ring systems = 6.08 (6)°]. The supramolecular structures feature C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions, as confirmed by Hirshfeld surface analyses.
