Poly[bis-(μ(2)-3-carb-oxy-benzoato)bis-(dipyrido[3,2-a;2',3'-c]phenazine)bis-(μ(3)-isophthalato)tricopper(II)]

Abstract:
In the title compound, [Cu(3)(C(8)H(4)O(4))(2)(C(8)H(5)O(4))(2)(C(18)H(10)N(4))(2)](n), one Cu(II) atom, located on an inversion center, is hexa-coordinated and shows a distorted octa-hedral coordination geometry, while the other Cu(II) atom is penta-coordinated and exhibits a distorted square-pyramidal geometry. The Cu(II) atoms are bridged by isophthalate and 3-carb-oxy-benzoate ligands, forming a chain structure along the b axis. Furthermore, the chains are linked by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a layer parallel to the ab plane.

03:02Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human eye.
01:11Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds with Multiple Substituents
For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...
02:52Stereoisomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula.
Transition metal complexes often exist as geometric isomers, in which the same atoms are connected through the same types of bonds but with differences in their orientation in space. Coordination complexes with two different ligands in the cis and trans positions from a ligand of interest form isomers. For example, the octahedral [Co(NH3)4Cl2]+ ion has two isomers (Figure 1) In the cis...
02:34Structural Isomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula. Structural isomerism of coordination compounds can be divided into two subcategories, the linkage isomers and coordination-sphere isomers.
Linkage isomers occur when the coordination compound contains a ligand that can bind to the transition metal center through two different atoms. For example, the CN− ligand can bind through the carbon atom or through the nitrogen atom. Similarly, SCN− can be...
