Abstract
In the binuclear title complex, [Cu2(ClO4)1.5(NO3)1.5(C18H16N6Se)(H2O)5]NO3·H2O, both CuII ions are hexacoordinated by O and N atoms, thus forming axially elongated CuO4N2 octahedra. The equatorial plane of each octahedron is formed by one chelating pyrazole–pyridine fragment of the organic ligand and two water molecules. The axial positions in one octahedron are occupied by a water molecule and a monodentately coordinated perchlorate anion, while those in the other are occupied by a nitrate anion and a disordered perchlorate/nitrate anion with equal site occupancy. The pyrazole–pyridine units of the organic selenide are trans-oriented to each other with a C—Se—C angle of 96.01 (14)°. In the crystal, uncoordinated nitrate anions and the coordinating water molecules are involved in O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a bridge between the pyrazole group and the coordinating water molecules. Further O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the complex molecules and a π–π stacking interaction with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.834 (4) Å are also observed.
