Y. Xi, J. Li and F. Zhang

Abstract: In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Cu(C₁₃H₉N₂O)₂]·2C₃H₇NO, the Cu^II ion is coordinated by two N and two O atoms from two deprotonated 2-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)phenol ligands to give a four-coordinate distorted tetrahedral geometry. The Cu atom lies on a twofold rotation axis.
