Abstract: | A novel copper(II) coordination polymer, polyaquacopper(II)]‐μ3‐2,2′‐bipyridyl‐3,3′‐dicarboxylato‐κ4N,N′:O:O′] dihydrate], {Cu(C12H6N2O4)(H2O)]·2H2O}n, was obtained by the reaction of CuCl2·2H2O and 2,2′‐bipyridyl‐3,3′‐dicarboxylic acid (H2L) in water. In the molecule, each CuII atom is five‐coordinated and lies at the centre of a square‐pyramidal basal plane, bridged by three L ligands to form a two‐dimensional (4,4)‐network. Each L moiety acts as a bridging tetradentate ligand, coordinating to three CuII atoms through its two aromatic N atoms and two O atoms of the two carboxyl groups. The two‐dimensional square‐grid sheets superimpose in an off‐set fashion through the inorganic water layer. |
