metal-organic compounds
In the title compound, [Cu2(C2H3O2)2(C20H36N8)(H2O)2](C2H3O2)2·6H2O, the dinuclear cation has inversion symmetry and contains square-pyramidal CuII ions separated by 7.471 (1) Å. Symmetry-related cations are linked to a framework of rings of five water molecules, where each water molecule acts as both a single hydrogen-bond donor and acceptor, an arrangement very close to that believed to exist in liquid water.
