The infrared and Raman spectra of 5-chloro-7-iodo-8-hydroxyquinoline (clioquinol, CQ) and that of its Cu(II) complex of stoichiometry [Cu(CQ)2] were recorded and briefly discussed. Some comparisons were made with related complexes. The interest of the investigated systems in relation to Alzheimer’s disease is briefly commented.
