Bis(nitrato-κO)(5,7,12,14-tetramethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane-6,13-diaminium-κ4N1,N4,N8,N11)copper(II) dinitrate tetrahydrate

Abstract

In the title compound, [Cu(NO3)2(C14H36N6)](NO3)2·4H2O, the CuII atom, lying on an inversion center, is six-coordinated in a distorted octahedral environment by four N atoms from a centrosymmetric 14-membered tetraazacyclotetradecane macrocyclic ligand and two O atoms from two nitrate anions. The supramolecular network is consolidated by extensive O—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen-bonding interactions.
