Journal of Chemical Crystallography Aims and scope Submit manuscript

The title compound [Cu2(OOC-(CH2)6-COO)2] was synthesized and its crystal structure has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1 with a=5.1077(5) Å, b=8.362(2) Å, c=11.378(2) Å, α=93.773(6)°, β=97.587(9)°, γ=90.493(’9)° and D cal=1.629 mg/m3 for Z=1.

 The structure is polymeric and consists of discrete anhydrous centrosymmetric binuclear units [Cu2(OOC-(CH2)6-COO)2]. The two copper(II) centres bridged by the suberate groups in a syn-syn conformation, are in pentacoordinated distorted square-pyramidal coordination environment, with an intramolecular Cu–Cu distance of 2.5793(10) Å. Each binuclear unit, related to the next through μoxo bridges with a Cuμoxo–Cuμoxo separation of 3.2326(10)Å, defines infinite chains of one-edge sharing CuO5 square pyramid.
