Structural characterization of a new metallopolymer complex of 1,10-phenanthroline and nitrate [Cu(C12H8N2)(NO3)2]n
A new mixed-ligand copper(II) complex of 1,10-phenanthroline and nitrate ligands [Cu(C 12 H 8 N 2 )(NO 3 ) 2 ] n is prepared and its crystal structure is determined by X-ray diffraction. The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/ n , with unit cell dimensions a = 8.8226(3) Å, b = 9....
