Abstract: The title complex has been synthesized by o-acetamidobenzoic acid and 2,2′-bipyridine(bipy) in the mixture solvent of water and methanol. It crystallizes(C28H26CuN4O7, Mr=594.07) in Triclinic space group P1 with a=0.805 3(4) nm, b=0.845 5(4) nm, c=2.001 8(9) nm; α=100.797(8)°, β=93.054(7)°, γ=97.297(7)°, V=1.323 9(10) nm3, Dc=1.490 g·cm-3, Z=2, F(000)=614. R1=0.035 9, wR2=0.080 5. The crystal structure shows that the copper atom is coordinated with four oxygen atoms from two o-acetamidobenzoic acid and two nitrogen atoms from the 2,2′-bipyridine, forming a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. The cyclic voltametric behavior of the complex is also reported. CCDC: 619084. |
