ABSTRACT
The title compound, [Cu(C7H5O3)2(C7H6N2)2]n, is a one-dimensional polymeric complex bridged by salicylate anions. The Cu(II) atom is surrounded by three salicylate and two benzimidazole ligands, with a tetragonally elongated octahedral coordination geometry. The Cu-O bond distances in the axial directions are 2.6092 (16) and 2.6834 (17) A. pi-pi stacking interactions exist between the benzimidazole rings of neighboring polymeric complex chains.
