Abstract:
In the title compound, {[Cu(C(5)H(6)O(4))(ClO(4))(C(16)H(22)N(4))]ClO(4)·2H(2)O}(n), square-pyramidally coordinated Cu atoms with perchlorate and dimethyl-malonate ligands are connected into cationic sinusoidal coordination polymer chains by doubly protonated bis-(3-pyridylmeth-yl)piperazine (3-bpmp) ligands. The chains aggregate into pseudo-layers parallel to the (101) crystal planes by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonding. Unligated perchlorate anions and water mol-ecules of crystallization provide additional hydrogen bonding between pseudo-layers.

In these complexes, transition metals form coordinate covalent bonds, a kind of Lewis acid-base interaction in which both of the electrons in the bond are contributed by a donor (Lewis base) to an electron acceptor (Lewis acid). The Lewis acid in...

The nitrous acid is unstable. Hence, it is formed in situ from a solution of sodium nitrite and cold aqueous acids such as hydrochloric or sulfuric acid. In an acidic solution, the –OH group of nitrous acid undergoes protonation to give oxonium ion, followed by water loss...
