Bis(N,N-dimethylformamide-κO)bis(2,4,6-trinitrophenolato-κ²O¹,O²)copper(II)

Abstract

The mol­ecule of the title complex, [Cu(C6H2N3O7)2(C3H7NO)2], is disposed about a crystallographic centre of symmetry. The CuII cation is six-coordinated by two phenolate O atoms and two ortho-nitro O atoms of two picrate units and by two carbonyl O atoms from two coordinated dimethyl­formamide mol­ecules, forming a distorted octa­hedral geometry.
