The complex [Cu(l-Leu)(phen)(H2O)]NO3 has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductivity, spectroscopic and X-ray diffraction methods, where phen = 1,10-phenanthroline and l-Leu = l-leucinate. The complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group Pī with two molecules in a unit cell of dimensions a = 7.288(4) Å, b = 11.588(7) Å, c = 12.349(3) Å, α = 86.388(10)o, β = 76.175(11)°, γ = 72.132(3)°, V = 963.8(10) Å3, Z = 2, Dc = 1.564 g/cm3, μ = 1.177 mm-1, F(000) = 470, R1 = 0.0611, and wR2 = 0.0711. The copper(II) is ligated in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry by the two nitrogen atoms of phen and the amino nitrogen atom and one carboxylate oxygen atom from each independent l-Leu moiety in the basal plane, and one water oxygen at the apical position. A supramolecular configuration is formed from strong phen-phen stacking interactions between neighboring [Cu(l-leu)(phen)(H2O)]+cations in the crystal.
