Bis[N-(2-aminoethyl)morpholine]copper(II) bis(tetrafluoroborate)

O. Sander, F. Tuczek and C. Näther

Abstract: In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Cu(C₆H₁₄N₂O)₂](BF₄)₂, the Cu atom is coordinated by four N atoms of two symmetry-related N-(2-aminoethyl)morpholine ligands in a slightly distorted square-planar geometry. Including two longer contacts to two F atoms of two symmetry-related tetrafluoroborate anions, the coordination polyhedron can be described as a tetragonal bipyramid. The Cu atom is located on a centre of inversion, whereas the N-(2-aminoethyl)morpholine ligand and the tetrafluoroborate anion are located in general positions. The crystal packing is stabilized by N-HF and N-HO hydrogen bonds.
