Azide, water and adipate as bridging ligands for Cu(II): Synthesis, structure and magnetism of (μ4-adipato-κ-O)(μ-aqua)(μ-azido-κN1,N1)copper(II) monohydrate

The Distinguished Scientist Fellowship Program (DSFP) at King Saud University is gratefully acknowledged. The authors are grateful to the Algerian MESRS (Ministère de l’Enseignement Supérieur et de la Recherche Scientifique), the Université Ferhat Abbas Sétif 1, the KSU DSFP program and the Spanish MINECO (CTQ2014-52758-P and MAT2014-56143-R) and the Generalitat Valenciana (PrometeoII/2014/076) for financial support. The synthesis, characterization, single crystal structure and magnetic properties of the compound [(CuN3(OH2))2(adp)]n (1) are presented, in which adp stands for the adipate(2-) anion. This compound consists of layers containing chains of six-coordinated Cu(II) ions; the chains…
