We present the results of magnetic properties and entanglement of the
distorted diamond chain model for azurite using pure quantum exchange
interactions. The magnetic properties and concurrence as a measure of pairwise
thermal entanglement have been studied by means of variational mean-field like
treatment based on Gibbs-Bogoliubov inequality. Such a system can be considered
as an approximation of the natural material azurite, Cu3(CO3)2(OH)2. For values
of exchange parameters, which are taken from experimental results, we study the
thermodynamic properties, such as azurite specific heat and magnetic
susceptibility. We also have studied the thermal entanglement properties and
magnetization plateau of the distorted diamond chain model for azurite
