Chlorido{μ-2,6-bis-[(2-amino-eth-yl)imino-meth-yl]-4-chloro-phenolato}-μ-oxido-dicopper(II) trihydrate.

ABSTRACT: In the title dinuclear complex, [Cu(2)(C(14)H(20)ClN(4)O)ClO]·3H(2)O, one Cu(II) cation assumes a distorted square-planar coordination geometry and the other a distorted square-pyramidal coordination geometry. Both Cu(II) cations are N,N',O-chelated by one arm of the 2,6-bis-[(2-amino-eth-yl)imino-meth-yl]-4-chloro-phenolate anion, and one oxide anion bridges the two Cu(II) cations, forming a dinuclear complex. One of the Cu(II) cations is further coordinated by an Cl(-) anion in the apical direction. In the crystal, lattice water mol-ecules are linked with the complex mol-ecule via O-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds while O-H⋯O hydrogen bonding occurs between lattice water mol-ecules , forming three-dimensional network structure.
