Bis{N-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)-N'-[1-(2-pyridyl)ethylidene}hydrazinato]copper(II)

D.-B. Dang, Y. Bai and C.-Y. Duan

Abstract: The title complex, [Cu(C₁₄H₁₂N₃O₂)₂], consists of two deprotonated 2-acetylpyridine salicylhydrazone ligands coordinated to the copper as N,N,O-tridentate ligands, forming a neutral complex. The Cu atom lies on a twofold rotation axis. The structure is stabilized by intramolecular O-HN hydrogen bonding, and - stacking interactions between the pyridyl and benzene rings lead to a two-dimensional network in the crystal structure.
