Conclusion
The study presents a new one-dimensional copper(II) coordination polymer with a unique double-chain structure.
Supporting Evidence
- The compound exhibits a one-dimensional double-chain structure.
- The copper atoms are coordinated in distorted geometries.
- Strong hydrogen bonds link the chains to form a layer structure.
Takeaway
Scientists created a new type of copper structure that looks like a long chain, which could be useful for making new materials.
Methodology
The compound was synthesized by heating a mixture of copper nitrate, dipyridophenazine, isophthalic acid, and water in a Teflon reactor.
