Study on a Structure of 2,6-Pyridine-Dicarboxylic Acid Europium Quarthydrate

A novel Eu metal complex C14H19EuN2O14 has been synthesized from hydrothermal reaction and the crystal structure has been determined by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The Eu atom is nine-coordinated by two N atom and seven O atoms. The crystal packing is stabilized by O-H...O hydrogen bonding interactions
