Tetra-μ-acetato-κ8O:O′-bis[(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole-κN2)copper(II)]

The dinuclear centrosymmetric title compound, [Cu2(CH3CO2)4(C5H8N2)2], has a distorted square-pyramidal coordination geometry around each CuII atom in which four O atoms from the bridging acetate ligands form the basal plane while two N atoms from the pyrazole ligands occupy the apical positions.

description The dinuclear centrosymmetric title compound, [Cu2(CH3CO2)4(C5H8N2)2], has a distorted square-pyramidal coordination geometry around each CuII atom in which four O atoms from the bridging acetate ligands form the basal plane while two N atoms from the pyrazole ligands occupy the apical positions. The crystal has two half molecules in the asymmetric unit with a Cu...Cu distance of 2.6762 (4) Å. Disorder was found for two O atoms and two C atoms of one acetate ligand and refined with occupancies of 0.265 (7) and 0.735 (7). The crystal also features molecules linked through two N—H...O hydrogen bonds resulting in one-dimensional chains extending along the crystallographic b axis.
