Abstract
Reaction of copper(II) bromide with 3,5-dichloropyridine (3,5-Cl2py) or 3,5-dimethylpyridine (3,5-Me2py) led to the isolation of the coordination polymers catena-poly[[bis(3,5-dichloropyridine)copper(II)]-di-μ-bromido], [CuBr2(C5H3Cl2N)2]n or [CuBr2(3,5-Cl2py)2]n (1), and catena-poly[[bis(3,5-dimethylpyridine) copper(II)]-di-μ-bromido], [CuBr2(C7H9N)2]n or [CuBr2(3,5- Me2py)2]n (2), respectively. The structures are characterized by bibromidebridged chains [d(av.)Cu Cu = 3.93 (9) A ]. In 1, the chains are linked perpendicular to the a axis by non-classical hydrogen bonds and halogen bonds, while in 2, only non-classical hydrogen bonds are observed. © 2025 International Union of Crystallography.
