Bis(1-methylpiperazine-1,4-diium) tetrachloridocuprate(II)
The title compound, (C5H14N2)[CuCl4], was synthesized by hydrothermal reaction of CuCl2 with 1-methylpiperazine in an HCl/water solution. Both amine N atoms are protonated. The piperazine ring adopts a chair conformation. The Cu—Cl distances in the tetrahedral anion are in the range 2....

Summary: | The title compound, (C5H14N2)[CuCl4], was synthesized by hydrothermal reaction of CuCl2 with 1-methylpiperazine in an HCl/water solution. Both amine N atoms are protonated. The piperazine ring adopts a chair conformation. The Cu—Cl distances in the tetrahedral anion are in the range 2.2360 (7)–2.2732 (7) Å. In the crystal, moderately strong and weak intermolecular N—H...Cl hydrogen bonds link the anion and cation units into an infinite two-dimensional network parallel to the ab plane. |
