Synthesis of CuO by Cu-CPPs with the determination of Cu(II) coordination modes from a novel complex of [Cu(terpyOH)2]·(HBTC)·2H2O

Demonstrating a general method to synthesize CuO microrods via simple calcination of Cu-CPPs and Cu(II) coordination modes from a novel complex of [Cu(terpyOH)2]∙(HBTC)·2H2O constructed by hydrogen bonding.
