    abstract = "The crystal and molecular structure of the title compound,
[Cu-2(3,5-dihydroxybenzoate)(4) (acetonitrile)(2)] . 8H(2)O 1, is
reported. Crystal data for 1: tetragonal, space group I 4/m, a =
11.720(2) Angstrom, c = 15.304(3) Angstrom, V = 2102.4(6), and D-c =
1.53 g/cm(3), for Z = 2. The metal and organic components crystallize to
form a Cu paddle-wheel complex, of idealized D(4)h symmetry, that
assembles in the solid-state, along with eight equivalents of water, to
form a 3D hydrogen-bonded network held together by O-H ... O hydrogens
bonds. The metal complexes pack to form a 2D layered structure."
