Abstract

Crystals of the title compound BiCuI5(phen)2 were synthesized solvothermally by reacting CuCl2·2H2O, Bi(NO3)3·5H2O, NH4I, and 1,10-phenanthroline in an ethanol/water solvent mixture. BiCuI5(phen)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n. The asymmetric unit consists of a [Bi2I10] iodobismuthate group and a [CuI(phen)2] complex that are linked via a shared iodine. In this paper, we describe the synthesis and single crystal structure of the new metal–organic halobismuthate complex, BiCuI5(phen)2.

Graphical Abstract

X-ray diffraction quality single crystals of a novel metal–organic halobismuthate, BiCuI5(phen)2 were grown in water/ethanol solvent mixture at 120 °C and used for structure determination using single crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n.
