Abstract: The title complex, [Cu₂(C₁₃H₁₈N₂O₃)₂]·C₃H₆O, has been synthesized by the reaction of copper(II) acetate monohydrate with 5,5'-bis(diethylamino)-2,2'-[ethylenedioxybis(nitrilomethylidyne)]diphenol, where one of the N-O bonds of the ligand was cleaved during the reaction. The complex molecule has a -dialkoxo-bridged binuclear structure with both Cu^II centers exhibiting a square-planar coordination geometry.
