Abstract
In the structure of the title complex, [Cu(C7H5O2)(OH)(C12H12N2)(C7H6O2)]·H2O, the CuII ion is pentacoordinated in a tetragonal-pyramidal geometry with one O atom of a hydroxide group, one O atom of a benzoate anion and two N atoms of a 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine ligand occupying the basal plane, and one O atom of a benzoic acid molecule located at the apical site. The title complex was refined with a metal-coordinated OH group and a ‘free’ benzoic acid molecule, although it can be assumed that the proton is delocalized between the OH and the COOH group. The uncoordinated water molecule is equally disordered over two positions. The structure displays O—H⋯O hydrogen bonding.
