•A new copper(II) 3D coordination supramolecular compound was synthesized.•Nano rods of the compound was prepared by ultrasound-assisted method.•The X-ray crystal structure of the compound is reported.•Ultrasound has found as an appropriate method for nanomaterials fabrication.
High-energy ultrasound irradiation has been used for the synthesis of a new copper(II) coordination supramolecular compound, [Cu2(μ-O2CCH3)2(μ-OOCCH3)(phen)2](BF4) (1), (“phen” is 1,10-phenanthroline) with nano-rods morphology. The new nano-structure was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), FT-IR spectroscopy and elemental analyses. Compound 1 was structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The utilization of high intensity ultrasound has found as a facile, environmentally friendly, and versatile synthetic tool for the supramolecular coordination compounds.
