catena-Poly[[[(2,2′-bipyridyl)copper(II)]-μ-l-alaninato] perchlorate monohydrate]

Abstract

In the structure of the polymeric title complex, {[Cu(C3H6NO2)(C10H8N2)]ClO4·H2O}n, the carboxylate group of the chelating amino acid is further linked to a neighbouring Cu centre, generating a supramolecular single-stranded chain parallel to [010]. The structure displays intermolecular N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonding, which consolidates the crystal packing.
