Abstract: The title compound, [Cu(C₉H₉BrNO₂)₂], is a centrosymmetric mononuclear copper(II) complex. The Cu atom is four-coordinated in a trans-CuN₂O₂ square-planar geometry by two phenolate O and two oxime N atoms from two symmetry-related N,O-bidentate (E)-4-bromo-2-(ethoxyiminomethyl)phenolate oxime-type ligands. An interesting feature of the crystal structure is the centrosymmetric intermolecular CuO interaction [3.382 (1) Å], which establishes an infinite chain structure along the b axis.
