Conclusion

The study presents a new copper(II) complex with a distorted octahedral geometry formed by pipemidic acid and 4,4'-oxydibenzoic acid.

Supporting Evidence

  • The copper atom in the complex is coordinated by four oxygen atoms and two water molecules.
  • The study utilized a Bruker SMART CCD diffractometer for data collection.
  • The crystal structure exhibits classical hydrogen bonding interactions.

Takeaway

Scientists created a new compound using copper and certain acids, and they found that it has a special shape.

Methodology

The compound was synthesized by mixing copper(I) iodide, pipemidic acid, and 4,4'-oxydibenzoic acid in water and heating it in a hydrothermal bomb.
