Absolute configuration of di(perchlorato-O)tetra(pyridine-N)copper(II), [Cu(ClO4)2(py)4]
摘要:
The crystal of the title complex consists of neutral [Cu(ClO4)2(C5H5N)4] units. The two perchlorate ligands occupy the axial positions of a distorted octahedral environment around the metal ion; the axial Cu-O bonds are relatively weak. The absolute configuration has been established; the four pyridine molecules display a right-handed screw arrangement around the Cu2+ ion.
