Abstract—The compound [Cu(TSC)2](H2SSal)2
(I) has been synthesized (TSC is thiosemicarbazide,
H3SSal is 5ꢀsulfosalicylic acid) and studied by IR spectroscopy and Xꢀray crystallography. The crystals of

1. The structural units of the crystal are the centrosymmetric [Cu(TSC)2]2+
cation, in which the Cu atom is in a squareꢀplanar coordination formed by the bidentate chelating (N,S) TSC
ligands, and (H2SSal)– anions (Cu(1)–N(3), 2.013(3) Å; Cu(1)–S(1), 2.275(1) Å; intrachelate angle, 86.8°).
The coordination polyhedron of the Cu(1) atom is completed to a prolate tetragonal bipyramid (4 + 2) by
Cu–O bonds (2.810(3) Å) of the sulfate moieties of both anions, which form together with hydrogen bonds
the [Cu(TSC)2(H2SSal)2] supermolecule. The complex cations are packed in layers and alternate with anionꢀ
containing layers. Hydrogen bonding and

be somewhat out of the coordination plane. In this
case, there is a small bend along the N···S line (an
envelope conformation). The linear and angular
parameters of the coordination polyhedron are almost
identical for the same metal but are somewhat differꢀ
