Chlorido[2,2′-(oxydimethyl­ene)­dipyridine]copper(II) perchlorate–aqua­chlorido[2,2′-(oxydimethyl­ene)­dipyridine]copper(II) perchlorate (1/1)

摘要

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [CuCl(C12H12N2O)][CuCl(C12H12N2O)(H2O)](ClO4)2, contains two different discrete cations. In one cation, the CuII ion is coordinated in a slightly distorted square-planar geometry, while in the other the CuII ion is in a slightly distorted square-pyramidal environment. In the crystal structure, there are O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between coordinated water mol­ecules and perchlorate anions. Both types of cations are linked into one-dimensional chains along the b axis by weak electrostatic Cu⋯Cl inter­actions, with Cu⋯Cl distances of 2.8088 (16) and 3.2074 (17) Å.
