Abstract
In the title compound, [Cu(H2O)6](NO3)2, the geometry around the CuII ion is approximately octahedral, formed by six O atoms from the coordinated water molecules. The Cu—O distances are rather similar [2.014 (2)–2.084 (2) Å] and not related by symmetry. The Jahn–Teller effect is, at best, only weakly observed in this structure, in contrast to many other structures where the hexaaquacopper(II) ion has been characterized. An extensive mesh of hydrogen-bond interactions between the coordinated water molecules and nitrate ions is a feature of the structure and may limit the degree to which the Jahn–Teller effect can be observed.
