Abstract: | The title complex, {Cu2(C8H4O4)2(C3H4N2)4(H2O)]·H2O}n, is a three‐dimensional polymer formed through bridging by phthalate dianions of two different CuII cations and a network of O(N)—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The Cu—O and Cu—N interaction distances are in the ranges 2.0020 (16)–2.4835 (17) and 1.968 (2)–1.9855 (19) Å, respectively. The structure is composed of alternating polymer chains parallel to the c axis, with a shortest Cu⋯Cu distance of 6.3000 (5) Å. |
