Abstract
The title compound, [Cu2(C7H4NO4)4(C3H7NO)2]·(C3H7NO)2, is a binuclear copper(II) complex located on an inversion center midway between the two copper(II) cations. The asymmetric unit consists of one CuII cation, two 3-nitro-benzoato ligands, and two di-methyl-formamide (DMF) mol-ecules, one of which coordinates to the CuII cation and one is a solvate mol-ecule. The carboxyl-ate groups of the ligands bridge two CuII cations with a Cu-Cu distance of 2.6554 (6) Å, completing a distorted octa-hedral O5Cu coordination environment. The dihedral angles between the carboxyl-ate and the aromatic ring planes of the two independent ligands are different from one another, viz. 5.2 (3) and 23.9 (3)°. The three-dimensional structure is consolidated by weak C-H⋯O inter-actions and stabilized by π-π stacking inter-actions between the aromatic rings. The complex and the free ligand were further characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and the energies of the frontier mol-ecular orbitals of the complex were determined by DFT calculations at the B3LYP/def2-TZVP level of theory.
