| Abstract: | A metal-organic coordination compound formulated as Cu(MOPIP)(BDC)]n·0.5n(H2O) 1(MOPIP = 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo4,5-f]1,10] phenanthroline, BDC = 1,4-benze Nedicar- boxylate) has been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized by elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, IR spectrum, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The title compound crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P, with a = 8.872(5), b = 11.163(6), c = 12.589(6) ?, α = 94.687(7), β = 99.930(6), γ = 103.074(7)°, V = 1186.7(12) ?3, C28H19CuN4O5.5, Mr = 563.01, Dc = 1.576 g/cm3, μ(MoKα) = 0.973 mm(1, F(000) = 576, Z = 2, the final R = 0.0607 and wR = 0.1618 for 3419 observed reflections (I > 2((I)). |
