The title compound, [Cu(HL)2(H2O)2] or [Cu(C4H4N3O2)2(H2O)2], is a mononuclear octahedral CuII complex based on 5-methyl-1H-1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxylic acid (H2L). [Cu(HL)2(H2O)2] was synthesized by reaction of H2L with copper(II) nitrate hexahydrate (2:1 stoichiometric ratio) in water under ambient conditions to produce clear light-blue crystals. The central Cu atom exhibits an N2O4 coordination environment in an elongated octahedral geometry provided by two bidentate HL− anions in the equatorial plane and two water molecules in the axial positions. Hirshfeld surface analysis revealed that the most important contributions to the surface contacts are from H...O/O...H (33.1%), H...H (29.5%) and H...N/N...H (19.3%) interactions.

The title compound, bis[μ-3-ethyl-5-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-ido]bis[acetato(dimethylformamide)copper(II)], [Cu2(C9H9N4)2(C2H3O2)2(C3H7NO)2] or [Cu2(LEt)2(OAc)2(dmf)2], is a triazolate complex, which contains two 3-(2-pyridyl)-5-ethyl-triazolates (LEt)− in bidentate-bridged coordination modes. Both copper atoms are involved in the formation of a planar six-membered metallocycle Cu–[N—N]2–Cu. The inversion center of the complex is located at the mid-point of the Cu...Cu vector. Each CuII atom has a distorted trigonal–bipyramidal environment formed by the three nitrogen atoms of the deprotonated bridging 3-(2-pyridyl)-5-ethyl-triazolate unit, oxygen atoms of the OAc− group and dmf molecule. In the crystal, C—H...O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into chains running along the c-axis direction.

In the title compound [Fe2(C2O4)(C8H8N4)4](CH3C6H4SO3)2·2.75H2O, the two FeII ions have a highly distorted octahedral FeN4O2 environment formed by two bidentate triazole-based chelating ligands and a bis-bidentate oxalate bridging anion that connects the metal ions. Stabilization within the crystal structure is provided via a system of O—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen bonding, which determines the formation of a two-dimensional architecture along the a-axis direction.
