3,5-Bis[(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)methyl]-4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-amine (H2L) associates under deprotonation with CuSO4 in aqueous medium to form a new waisted barrel-shaped M6L4 cluster, namely hexaaquatetrakis{μ4-3,5-bis[(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)methyl]-4H-1,2,4- triazol-4-amine}-μ4-sulfato-hexacopper(II) sulfate hydrate, [Cu6(SO4) (C6H6N12)4(H2O)6]SO4·nH2O (n = ∼23) (1). Cluster 1 resembles concave cucurbit[6]uril and has one disordered sulfate anion trapped inside the cage, which additionally stabilizes the Cu6 unit. The CuII ions have either a square-pyramidal or a distorted octahedral geometry. The equatorial positions are filled by N atoms from the L2− ligand, while the axial positions are occupied by coordinated water molecules and O atoms of the sulfate counter-ion. In the solid state, the Cu6 clusters are connected through a large number of hydrogen bonds formed by uncoordinated water molecules and an additional sulfate anion. The compound shows good antimicrobial activity against E. coli tested with the Kirby Bauer approach. In addition, the cell viability towards HeLa and L-929 cells was studied.
