NN′-Bis(4-bromo­benzyl­idene)-22-di­methyl­propane-κ2 NN′iodidocopper(I)

摘要

The title compound, [CuI(C19H20Br2N2)], lies across a crystallographic mirror plane. The coordination around the copper centre is distorted trigonal planar, with a bite angle of 94.7 (3)°. A six-membered chelate ring in a chair conformation is formed by the coordination of the imine N atoms of the bidentate ligand to the Cu^I atom. This conformation is required by the crystallographic mirror symmetry. The inter­planar angle between the benzene rings is 74.85 (19)°. The crystal structure exhibits weak inter­molecular C—H⋯π inter­actions, which link the mol­ecules into chains along the b axis.
