Abstract:
In the title compound, [Cu(C9H6N3O2)2(C2H7N)2], the Cu2+ cation is situated on an inversion center and is coordinated by the N atoms of two di-methyl-amine ligands and the carboxyl-ate O atoms of two 4-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)benzoate anions, leading to a slightly distorted square-planar N2O2 coordination environment. In the crystal, inter-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds between the amine function and the central N atom of the triazole ring lead to the formation of ribbons parallel to [11]. Weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions are also observed that consolidate the crystal packing.

Structural 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...
Colors 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...
