Abstract:
The title compound, [Cu2(C5H6O4)2(C11H10N4O)], contains square-pyramidally coordinated CuII ions linked by anti-gauche conformation glutarate (glu) ligands into [Cu2(glu)2] di-periodic coordination polymer layers with embedded [Cu2(OCO)4] paddlewheel clusters. In turn, the layer motifs are connected by 1,3-di(pyridin-3-yl)urea (3-dpu) linkers to form a [Cu2(glu)2(3-dpu)] tri-periodic coordination polymer network. Treating the [Cu2(OCO)4] clusters as 6-connected nodes reveals an underlying 41263 pcu topology according to TOPOSPRO software [Blatov et al. (2014 ▸). Cryst. Growth Des. 14, 3576-3586].

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...
