The Tetra–μ–[N-phenylanthranilato](O,O’)–bis[(2-amino-4-methyl)pyridine Copper(II)] Complex Crystal

Abstract

Tetra–μ–[N-phenylanthranilato](O,O′)–bis[2-amino-4-methyl) pyridine copper(II)] (bisdichloromethane solvate and unsolvate) in one crystalline contains two independent binuclears, one of which is unsolvate and the other one is dichloromethane solvate. The phenyl ring planes in the asymmetric units were not parallel to each other [44.47(14)° and 52.50(13)° for unsolvate unit, 53.30(14)° and 49.59(13)° for solvate unit] and the distance between the two centers of phenyl rings was measured as 5.064 Å (for Cg2-Cg3), 5.005 Å (for Cg4-Cg5), 5.048 Å (for Cg7-Cg8), and 5.088 Å (for Cg9-Cg10) for NPA ligands. The complex molecules showed three dimensional supramolecular networks by O–H···O, C–H···O, C–H···π, and π···π interactions.
