Di-mu-hydroxo-bis[aqua(1,10-phen-anthroline-kappa2N,N')copper(II)] trans-bis(2-([(E)-5-formyl-2-oxido-kappaO-benzylidene]amino-kappaN)ethanesulfonato(2-))copper(II) hexahydrate.
The title compound, [Cu(2)(OH)(2)(C(12)H(8)N(2))(2)(H(2)O)(2)][Cu(C(10)H(9)NO(5)S)(2)].6H(2)O, is comprised of a copper-centred complex cation and a copper-centred complex anion; the cation lies about an inversion centre and in the anion the Cu atom lies on an inversion centre. In the doubly charged bridged dicopper cation, each Cu centre has distorted square-pyramidal geometry. In the square-planar dianion, two sulfonate ligands are trans coordinated to the Cu atom via a deprotonated hydroxyl O atom and an imine N atom, forming two six-membered chelate rings. The structure is stabilized by an extensive hydrogen-bond system and aromatic-ring stacking interactions.
