Abstract: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Cu₂(C₁₂H₁₇N₂O₂)₂(N₃)(-N₃)(H₂O)]·H₂O, consists of a dinuclear complex molecule and a solvent water molecule. One Cu atom is six-coordinated by the phenol O atom and by one imine and one amine N atoms from one Schiff base ligand, the phenol and ether O atoms of the second Schiff base, together with a terminal N atom of the bridging azide ligand, in an octahedral geometry. The coordination environment of the second Cu atom contains a phenol O and imine and amine N atoms from one Schiff base ligand, two further N atoms, one from the bridging and the other from a terminal azide ligand, and a coordinated water molecule, also in an octahedral geometry. The crystal structure involves O-HN and O-HO hydrogen bonds.
