Abstract
The title compound, [Cu(C10H9O5)2(H2O)4]·2H2O, is a neutral mononuclear complex. The CuII ion, which lies on an inversion center, displays an octahedral coordination geometry defined by two carboxylate O atoms of two different 3-(4-carboxyphenoxy)propionate ligands and four water molecules. The crystal structure is stabilized through strong O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds involving uncoordinated carboxylic acid groups, and coordinated and solvent water molecules, leading to a three-dimensional network. The O⋯O separations range from 2.623 (3) to 2.909 (3) Å and O—H⋯O angles range from 163 (4) to 179 (4)°.
