Crystal structure of catena-poly[hemi[1,3-bis-(2,6-diisoprop-ylphenyl)imidazolium] [[μ3-acetato-κ(3) O:O:O'-tri-μ2-acetato-κ(6) O:O'-dicopper(II)(Cu-Cu)]-μ-chlorido] di-chloro-methane sesqui-solvate].

ABSTRACT: The title copper(II) complex, {(C27H37N2)[Cu4(CH3COO)8Cl]·3CH2Cl2} n , is a one-dimensional coordination polymer. The asymmetric unit is composed of a copper(II) tetra-acetate paddle-wheel complex, a Cl(-) anion situated on a twofold rotation axis, half a 1,3-bis-(2,6-diisoprop-ylphenyl)imidazolium cation (the whole mol-ecule being generated by twofold rotation symmetry) and one and a half of a di-chloro-methane solvent mol-ecule (one being located about a twofold rotation axis). The central metal-organic framework comprises of a tetra-nuclear copper(II) acetate 'paddle-wheel' complex which arises from the dimerization of the copper(II) tetra-acetate core comprising of three μ2-bidentate acetate and one μ3-tridentate acetate ligands per binuclear paddle-wheel complex. Both Cu(II) atoms of
