X-ray structure of 1D-coordination polymer of copperII bearing 1,4-pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid and 2-aminopyrimidine

The new 1D-coordination polymer of CuII ion, {(2- apymH)2[Cu(pyzdc)2] .6H2O}n, (2-apym = 2-aminopyrimidine, pyzdcH2 = 1,4- pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid), was synthesized based on proton transfer mechanism and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The coordination polymer consists of infinite anionic chains of [Cu(pyzdc)2]2- anion bridged crossing double chain running along a-axis and discrete (2-apymH)+ fragment. The CuII ion is located on inversion centre in the basal plane of an elongated octahedron and two oxygen atoms from adjacent (pyzdc)2-ligands occupy axial position. The interaction between oxygen atoms of water molecules along with the dicarboxylic acid play an important role in the overall supramolecular assembly. nema
