Tetrakis(mu-benzoato-kappa2O:O)bis{[4-(dimethylamino)pyridine-kappaN1]copper(II)}.
The title compound, [Cu2(C(7)H(5)O(2))4(C(7)H(10)N(2))2], is a crystallographically centrosymmetric binuclear complex, with Cu atoms [Cu...Cu = 2.6982 (4) A] bridged by four benzoate ligands. Each of the Cu atoms in this bunuclear copper(II) acetate hydrate analogue is present in an approximately square-pyramidal environment, with four O atoms in a plane and the pyridine N atom at the apical site. Selected geometric parameters are compared with values for related tetrabenzoate complexes of copper(II).
