Abstract

Reaction of CuII salts with phenanthroline and oxalate (ox) or oxamate (oxm) gives [Cu(phen)(ox)(H2O)] · H2O or [Cu(phen)(oxm)(H2O)] · H2O complexes while direct treatment of CuII salts with oxalate or oxamate gives [NH4]2[Cu(ox)2] and [Cu(oxm)2(H2O)2] respectively. The X-ray structures of one example of each system, aquo-oxamato-phenanthroline-copper(II)-dihydrate and the polymeric ammonium-bis(aquo)-tetraoxalato-dicopper(II)-dihydrate, are reported.
