Abstract

The reaction of copper(II) perchlorate hexahydrate with 4-pyridone and pyrazine in 1-propanol serendipitously yielded crystals of the solvated title double salt, [Cu(C5H5NO)2(H2O)4][Cu2(ClO4)2(C5H5NO)4(H2O)2](ClO4)4·2C5H5NO, as a biproduct. The copper cations in both the monometallic complex and the dimeric species exhibit classic Jahn-Teller-like elongations. All coordinating 4-pyridone molecules are in the κ-O coordination mode. The dimeric component exhibits both bridging 4-pyridone and perchlorate ligands. Both complexes and the 4-pyridone molecules are bound together by a network of classical hydrogen bonds. The non-coordinating perchlorate ions were modeled as three-site disordered and one of the coordinating 4-pyridone molecules was modeled as two-site disordered. © 2026 International Union of Crystallography.
