Tetrakis(μ-4-chlorobenzoato-κ2O:O′)bis[(ethanol-κO)copper(II)](Cu—Cu)

Abstract

In the centrosymmetric dinuclear title CuII complex, [Cu2(C7H4ClO2)(C2H5OH)2], the Cu—Cu distance is 2.5905 (4) Å. The two metal atoms are bridged by four 4-chlorobenzoate ligands and each has an ethanol molecule in the axial position of the overall octahedral coordination environment. The crystal packing features O—H...O hydrogen bonds.
