Abstract

In the title dinuclear CuII complex, [Cu2(NO3)(C24H46N8)(H2O)](NO3)3·3H2O, the two CuII mol-ecules both have a square-pyramidal geometry, but the ligands in the axial positions are different: a water mol-ecule and a nitrate ion. All nitrate ions, water mol-ecules, and N-H groups are involved in an inter-molecular hydrogen-bond network.

Keywords: copper(II) complex; crystal structure; cyclen; dinuclear complex; p-xylene.
