Abstract
The copper complex [Cu(bzac)2(bpee)]⋅H2O (1) (bzac = benzoylacetonate, bpee = trans-1, 2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene) has been synthesized and structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group C2221, a = 18.348(4) A, b = 19.657(4) A, c = 15.490(3) A, V = 5586.9(19) A3, Z = 8. In the crystal of complex 1, the copper atoms have distorted octahedral geometry with four shorter and two longer bonds defined by two nitrogen donors from two trans-1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethene (bpee) ligands and four oxygen donors from two benzoylacetonate (bzac) chelating ligands. The compound possesses a one-dimensional linear chain structure with copper ions linked through the rod-like bpee ligands.
