μ-Succinato-bis[aquanitrato(1,10-phenanthroline)copper(II)]
Abstract
The Cu atom in the title compound, [Cu2(C4H4O4)(NO3)2(C12H8N2)2(H2O)2], adopts an octahedral geometry that is distorted tetragonally, as seen in the copper–water [Cu—O 2.657 (4) Å] and copper–nitrate [Cu—O 2.525 (4) Å] bonds. The water molecule bridges adjacent molecules into a linear chain, and neighboring chains are linked by hydrogen bonds into a layer structure.
