CuC8H12(NO4)2 is Indium-like structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four CuC8H12(NO4)2 clusters. Cu(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to two equivalent O(3) and two equivalent O(4) atoms. Both Cu(1)-O(3) bond lengths are 1.97 Å. Both Cu(1)-O(4) bond lengths are 1.97 Å. There are four inequivalent C sites. In the first C site, C(4) is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one O(2) and one O(3) atom. The C(4)-O(2) bond length is 1.26 Å. The C(4)-O(3) bond length is 1.28 Å. In the second C site, C(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one N(1), one H(1), and one H(2) atom. The C(1)-N(1) bond length is 1.46 Å. The C(1)-H(1) bond length is 1.10 Å. The C(1)-H(2) bond length is 1.10 Å. In the third C site, C(2) is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one N(1) and one O(1) atom. The C(2)-N(1) bond length is 1.34 Å. The C(2)-O(1) bond length is 1.25 Å. In the fourth C site, C(3) is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one N(1), one H(3), and one H(4) atom. The C(3)-N(1) bond length is 1.45 Å. The C(3)-H(3) bond length is 1.10 Å. The C(3)-H(4) bond length is 1.10 Å. N(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one C(1), one C(2), and one C(3) atom. There are six inequivalent H sites. In the first H site, H(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C(1) atom. In the second H site, H(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C(1) atom. In the third H site, H(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C(3) atom. In the fourth H site, H(4) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C(3) atom. In the fifth H site, H(5) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one O(1) and one O(4) atom. The H(5)-O(1) bond length is 1.65 Å. The H(5)-O(4) bond length is 1.00 Å. In the sixth H site, H(6) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one O(2) and one O(4) atom. The H(6)-O(2) bond length is 1.61 Å. The H(6)-O(4) bond length is 1.01 Å. There are four inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one C(4) and one H(6) atom. In the second O site, O(3) is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cu(1) and one C(4) atom.
