Abstract

The reaction of copper(II) sulphate pentahydrate with 2,2′,2″-iminotris (acetamidoxime) yields green needles of the formula [Cu(C6H15N7O3)(SO4)]·H2O for which the X-ray structure determination shows the five coordinate nature of the central CuII atom which is bonded to the imine and three oxime nitrogen atoms plus a sulphate molecule to give a slightly distorted trigonal bipyramidal chelate. A solvent water molecule which hydrogen bonds to a sulphate oxygen was located in the crystal lattice.
