Abstract: The title compound, [Cu₂(C₃₁H₃₀Cl₂N₄O₄)Cl₂]·CH₃CN, was synthesized by cyclocondensation between N,N'-bis(2-furyl)-N,N'-bis(3-formyl-5-chlorosalicylaldehyde)ethylenediamine and 1,3-diaminopropane in the presence of Cu^II ions. It is an unsymmetrical dinuclear Cu^II complex. The coordination geometry for each Cu^II atom can be discribed as distorted square-pyramidal. The two Cu atoms are bridged by two phenolate O atoms with a CuCu distance of 3.0274 (9) Å.
