A new dumbbell-type 4,4'-bipy-bridged dinuclear copper(II) complex, [Cu 2 (4,4'-bipy)L 2 (H 2 O) 2 ](ClO 4 ) 4 ·8CH 3 OH·10H 2 O, where L = 1-[bis(3-aminopropyl)amino]-2-propanol and bipy = bipyridine, has been synthesized and characterized, X-ray crystallographic analysis shows that the [Cu 2 (4,4'-bipy)L 2 (H 2 O) 2 ] 4+ cations and water molecules generate layer structures extending parallel to bc planes through hydrogen bonding interactions of O-H···O and C-H···O.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
