Detailed information:

Chemistry name:	copper-8; copper oxinate; copper-8-hydroxyquinoline
M Formula:	Cu(C9H6ON)2
Properties:
Yellow-green, nonhygroscopic, odorless powder. Insoluble in water; somewhat soluble in weak acids; soluble in strong acids. Insoluble in most organic solvents but somewhat soluble in pyridine and quinoline. Soluble copper-8 refers to the product formed by heating copper-8-quinolinolate with certain organic acids (naphthenic, lactic, stearic, etc.) or their salts. In such products, the copper-8-quinolinolate does not settle out on standing, even after dilution with various solvents.
Derivation:
From 8-quinolinol and copper salt such as copper acetate.
Grade:
