Abstract
The title compound, [Cu(C12H16N3O3)(CH3COO)]n or [Cu(CMP)(CH3COO)]n {CMP is 2-[3-(dimethylamino)propyliminomethyl]-4-nitrophenol}, was synthesized by the reaction of 2-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzaldehyde, N,N-dimethylpropane-1,3-diamine and copper(II) acetate monohydrate in a methanol solution. The compound is an acetate-bridged polymeric copper(II) complex. The CuII atom is coordinated in a square-pyramidal manner by one Schiff base CMP ligand and two acetate anions. The Schiff base molecule acts as a tridentate ligand, coordinating the CuII ion through its phenolate O atom, imine N atom and amine N atom. The acetate anion acts as a bridging group, coordinating two adjacent CuII ions through its two O atoms, one in the basal plane and the other in the apical position. The [Cu(CMP)] units are linked through the bridging acetate groups, forming chains running along the c axis.
