Abstract
Abstract Compounds of 1,1-cyclobutanedicarboxylic acid with cobalt, nickel and copper have been prepared in aqueous solution. The compounds have the stoichiometry M(C 6 H 6 O 4 )· x H 2 O where x = 1 for cobalt and copper, and x = 3 for nickel. The cobalt and nickel complexes have octahedral structures while the copper complex has a tetragonal structure. Thermal decomposition studies show that the complexes lose water, followed by the organic ligand, to give the metal oxides.
