{N,N'-Bis[1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl-idene]-propane-1,3-diamine}-(thio-cyanato-κN)copper(II) tetra-fluoridoborate.

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, [Cu(NCS)(C(17)H(20)N(4))]BF(4), the Cu(II) ion is five-coordinated by the four N atoms of the tetra-dentate Schiff base ligand and one N atom of a thio-cyanate ligand, thereby forming a square-pyramidal CuN(5) ccoordination geometry. The dihedral angle between the pyridine rings of the Schiff base is 55.58 (14)°. The F atoms of the tetra-fluoridoborate anion are disordered over two sets of sites with occupancies of 0.614 (3) and 0.386 (3). In the crystal, the components are linked by C-H⋯F inter-actions.
