Abstract: The title complex, [Cu(C₂F₃O₂)(C₂H₃O₂)(C₁₀H₉N₃)], has been prepared. The Cu^II cation has a slightly distorted square-pyramidal environment, with a basal plane formed by two N atoms of the di-2-pyridylamine ligand and two O atoms of the acetate group. The apical position is occupied by an O atom of the trifluoroacetate group. Two molecules related by a crystallographic center of symmetry are linked into a dimer by hydrogen bonds and further hydrogen bonds link the dimers into sheets.
