Additional information

Information on the physical state, form, colour and odour is given in the report on the melting point of the test substance. The test substance is there described as a greyish-blue solid with characteristic, slightly metallic odour.

Supporting data published in Gmelin's handbook of anorganic chemistry describe bis(glycinato)copper as a solid with blue to violet color.
