Catena-Poly[[diaqua-copper(II)]-μ-7-oxa-bicyclo-[2.2.1]heptane-2,3-dicarboxyl-ato].

ABSTRACT: In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Cu(C(8)H(8)O(5))(H(2)O)(2)](n), the Cu(II) cation is in a Jahn-Teller distorted six-coordination by two O atoms from water molecules, by the bridging O atom from the bicyclo moiety, by two carboxylate O atoms from two different carboxylate groups and by one carboxylate O atom from a symmetry-related bridging ligand.The polymeric structure is made up from double-strands propagating parallel to the c axis that are held together via inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
