{4,4'-Dimeth-oxy-2,2'-[ethyl-enedioxy-bis(nitrilo-methyl-idyne)]diphenolato}copper(II).

ABSTRACT: The title complex, [Cu(C(18)H(18)N(2)O(6))], was synthesized by the reaction of copper(II) acetate mono-hydrate with the ligand 4,4'-dimeth-oxy-2,2'-[ethyl-enedioxy-bis(nitrilo-methyl-idyne)]diphenol (H(2)L). The Cu atom is coordinated by two O atoms and two N atoms of the L(2-) unit. A bridged dimer is formed through inter-molecular Cu⋯O inter-actions [Cu⋯O = 1.9408 (15) Å], creating a distorted square-pyramidal geometry about the Cu atoms.
