Conclusion

The study presents the crystal structure of a copper complex with a distorted square-pyramidal geometry and weak hydrogen bonding.

Supporting Evidence

  • The copper atom in the complex is coordinated in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry.
  • Weak intermolecular hydrogen bonding is observed in the crystal structure.
  • One thienyl ring in the structure is disordered over two orientations.

Takeaway

The researchers studied a copper compound that has a special shape and bonds with other molecules in a unique way.

Methodology

The compound was synthesized using a literature procedure and characterized using X-ray crystallography.
