Abstract

The title compound, [Cu(C5H3N6)2(H2O)2], is isostructural with the manganese(II) analogue, but different from the two-dimensional structures of the zinc(II), iron(II), cobalt(II) and nickel(II) complexes with the same 5-(pyrimidin-2-yl)tetrazolate ligand. Each of the two symmetry-independent but structurally similar mononuclear molecules in the crystallographic asymmetric unit occupies a special position with the CuII atom on an inversion centre. Both CuII atoms have a highly distorted octahedral coordination geometry formed by two trans water molecules and two chelating ligands. Intermolecular O—H...N hydrogen bonds are present, which lead to the formation of a two-dimensional network.
