The reaction of di-2-pyridyl ketone with copper dichloride dihydrate and tartaric acid in water afforded the title compound, [Cu(C(11)H(10)N(2)O(2))(2)]C(4)H(4)O(6). The Cu(II) atom lies on an inversion center N,O,N'-chelated by two di-2-pyridylmethane-diol ligands in a tetragonally distorted octa-hedral geometry. The tartrate anion is also located on an inversion center and has disordered hydr...

The title compound, octaaqua-(hydrogenfluorido)dicopper(II) hexa-fluoridoferrate(III) dihydrate, was synthesized under hydro-thermal conditions. The Cu atom is coordinated by one F and five O atoms within a highly distorted octa-hedron, forming dimeric [Cu(2)(H(2)O)(8)HF(2)](3+) units by edge sharing. These units are hydrogen bonded to [FeF(6)](3-) anions and to an inter-stitial water mol-ecule...

In combination with copper(II) ions, disulfiram (DSF) has been reported to be a potentially potent anticancer agent based on in vitro results. The interaction of DSF with copper(II) chloride in solution has been studied using a range of spectroscopic techniques. There is strong evidence for the rapid formation of the bis(N,N-diethyl dithiocarbamato)copper(II) complex in situ. Kinetic experiment...

The title compound, C(9)H(7)IN(+)·Cl(-)·2H(2)O, was obtained during the synthesis of 8-iodo-quinoline from 8-amino-quinoline using the Sandmeyer reaction. The 8-iodo-quinolinium ion is almost planar. Solvent water mol-ecules and chloride ions form a hydrogen-bonded chain along the c axis via O-H⋯Cl links. The 8-iodo-quinolinium ions, which are packed along the c axis with cationic aromatic π-π ...

In the title compound, C(9)H(12)NO(3) (+)·Cl(-)·2H(2)O, the cation has a protonated amino group resulting from proton transfer from chloridric acid. The structure displays double layers parallel to the [010] direction held together by N-H⋯O, N-H⋯Cl, O-H⋯O and O-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds. These layers are stacked along the c axis at b = 1/2; within each layer, the tyrosinium cations are arranged in an...

The reaction of CuSO4·5H2O, 4-chloro-pyrazole (4-Cl-pzH) and tri-ethyl-amine (Et3N) in di-methyl-formamide (DMF) produced crystals of di-aqua-hexa-kis-(μ-4-chloro-pyrazolato-κ(2) N:N')bis-(N,N-di-methyl-formamide)di-μ3-hydroxido-bis-(μ4-sulfato-κ(4) O:O':O'':O'')hexa-copper(II) N,N-di-methyl-formamide tetra-solvate dihydrate, [Cu3(OH)(SO4)(C3H2ClN2)3(C3H7NO)(H2O)]2·4C3H7NO·2H2O. The centrosymme...
