Abstract: The new mononuclear copper(II) complex, [CuCl(C₁₀H₈N₂)₂]BF₄·CH₂Cl₂, was prepared by a new procedure using photo-irradiation and a nitrogen atmosphere. X-ray analysis reveals a slightly distorted trigonal-bipyramidal coordination geometry of copper(II); the axial ligands and the Cu^II atom deviate slightly from linearity [N-Cu-N = 175.3 (3)°].
