Aquabis(6-bromopicolinato-κ2N,O)copper(II)
Abstract
In the title compound, [Cu(C6H3BrNO2)2(H2O)], the Cu atom adopts a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal coordination arising from two N,O-bidentate ligands and a water molecule, with one N atom in an axial site and the other in an equatorial site. The dihedral angle between the pyridine ring planes is 67.6 (2)°. In the crystal, O—H...O hydrogen bonds result in chains propagating in [100].
