Copper salicylate describes a range of compounds containing copper(II) and salicylate. Many compounds are known. A simple species is: .
Many adducts of copper(II) salicylates are known with amines and N-heterocyclic ligands.
Complexes With other organic compounds Crystallization with dimethylacetamide (DMAA) produces various complexes such as:
This complex has a lantern structure.
Heterometallic Complexes Heterometallic complexes with various metals and solvents also exist, such as (with DMAA) the copper-strontium complex, , and the copper-barium complex, . Both these and the related complex took an excessively long time to crystallize, especially the copper-strontium complex which required an entire month. They share the lantern structure of the complex.
