✦ Synopsis
In the title compound, {[Cu(1,4-chdc)(L) 2 ]ÁH 2 O} n , where 1,4chdc is the 1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylate dianion, C 8 H 10 O 4 2À , and L is 2-methyl-1H-imidazole, C 4 H 6 N 2 , each Cu II atom is four-coordinated by two N atoms from two L ligands and two O atoms from two 1,4-chdc anions in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. Each 1,4-chdc ligand bridges two neighbouring Cu II atoms in a bidentate mode, forming a unique helical chain. These chains are decorated with L ligands alternately on the two sides. O-HÁ Á ÁO and N-HÁ Á ÁO hydrogen bonds complete the structure.
