presence of pyridine resulted in the formation of [Cu 2 (2-ClC 6 H 4 CH 2 COO) 4 (Py) 2](1).
The complex was characterized by FT-IR and X-ray single crystal analysis. The dinuclear
copper (II) complex has shown a paddle wheel arrangement with four bridging carboxylate
ligands around two copper centers. The axial positions around the paddle wheel copper
centers are occupied by pyridine co-ligands. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility …
