Synthesis, crystal structure and spectral properties of copper(II) monomer decorated copper(II) coordination polymer

• First copper coordination polymer with non-interacting neutral octahedral copper monomer was synthesized.
• Solution state and solid state UV-vis spectra were compared.
• Thermal decomposition and magnetic susceptibility were studied.

The novel copper (II) coordination polymer decorated with copper (II) monomer of general formula, [{Cu(ONO2)2(4,4′-bpy)(py)2}·{Cu(ONO2)2(Py)4}]n (CuCP) has been obtained from one pot reaction between 4,4′-bipyridine (4,4′-bpy), pyridine (py) and Cu(NO3)2·3H2O. The structural and spectural properties have been analyzed by FT-IR, UV–vis, 1H NMR, single crystal X-ray techniques. Besides, the magnetic susceptibility and thermal properties have also been studied.
