Metal complexes of anxiolitic drugs. X-Ray crystal structure and electronic properties of aquobromazepam(oxalato O1 O2) copper(II)

1987

The crystal structure of the title compound has been determined from single-crystal x-ray diffraction data. The copper(II) ion is surrounded by two nitrogen atoms of the bromazepam** molecule [N(imine) and N(pyridine)], and two oxygen atoms of the oxalate ion in a square planar arrangement. One molecule of water is linked to the copper(II) ion in the axial position. The complex has been also characterized by electronic, e.s.r. and i.r. spectra.
