Aqua(2,2'-bipyridyl)chloronitratocopper(II).
In a new hydrogen-bonded three-dimensional complex, [CuCl(NO3)(C10H8N2)(H2O)], the Cu atom has an elongated tetragonal octahedral environment, with two 2,2'-bipyridyl N atoms, one nitrate O atom and one Cl atom forming the equatorial plane, and a second O atom of the nitrate anion and a water molecule in the axial positions. The complex molecules are linked to form a three-dimensional supramolecular array by hydrogen-bonding interactions both between the water O atom and nitrate O atoms, and between the water O atom and the Cl atom of a neighboring molecule.
