{NN′-Bis1-(2-pyrid­yl)ethyl­ideneethane-12-diamine-κ4 NN′N′′N′′′}bis­(trifluoro­methane­sulfanato-κO)copper(II)

摘要

A discrete neutral Cu^II complex, [Cu(CF3SO3)2(C16H18N4)], has been derived from the symmetrical tetra­dentate Schiff base, N,N′-bis­[1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl­idene]ethane-1,2-diamine. The copper centre assumes a tetra­gonally distorted pseudo-octa­hedral geometry with the O atoms of two trifluoro­methane­sulfonate anions coordinated weakly in the axial positions. The Cu—N distances lie in the range 1.941 (3)–2.011 (3) Å and the Cu—O distances are 2.474 (3) and 2.564 (3) Å.
