Bis(ethylenediamine-κ²N,N′)bis(methanol-κO) copper(II) benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate methanol disolvate

چکیده مقاله

In the cation of the title compound, [Cu(C₂H₈N ₂)₂(CH₃OH)₂](C₈H ₄O₄)·2CH₃OH, the Cu^II atom lies on an inversion centre. The four N atoms of two ethylenediamine ligands around the Cu^II atom form the equatorial plane, while two methanol O atoms in the axial positions complete a Jahn-Teller distorted octahedral coordination. The benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate anion is centrosymmetric. In the crystal, C - H⋯O, N - H⋯O and O - H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the cations, the anions and the methanol solvent molecules. © 2012 International Union of Crystallography.
