In the title complex, [Cu2Cl4(C17H22N2)2], the CuII cation is coordinated by a N,N′-dibenzylpropane-1,2-diamine ligand and two Cl− anions, and a Cl− anion from an adjacent molecule further bridges to the CuII cation in the apical position, with a longer Cu—Cl distance of 2.9858 (18) Å, forming a centrosymmetric dimeric complex in which each CuII cation is in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry. Intramolecular N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonding is observed in the dimeric complex.

A solution of N,N'-dibenzylpropane-1,2-diamine (1 mmol) in ethanol (20 ml) and a solution of cupric chloride (1 mmol) in ethanol (10 ml) was mixed, the reaction mixture was stirred for 3 h at 323 K. The solution was then cooled slowly to room temperature and filtered. Blue crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction were obtained by evaporation of an ethanol solution.
H atoms were placed in calculated positions with N—H = 0.91 and C—H = 0.93 to 0.97 Å, and refined in riding mode with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl H atoms and 1.2Ueq(C,N) for the others.
Copper(II) complexes bridged by a pair of Cl atoms have been widely investigated in both bioinorganic chemistry and coordination chemistry (Yang et al., 2007; Alves et al., 2004). As a further study of the structures of such complexes, the
of the title complex is reported here.The molecular structure of the title complex is illustrated in Fig. 1. The CuII atom are in a distorted square-pyramidal coordination environment (Table 1). The two copper atoms are bridged by a pair of Cl atoms, resulting in complex with centro-symmetric structures. The apical Cu—Cl bond length is 2.9858 (18) Å, whic is longer than 2.737 Å reported by Alves et al. (2004), and 2.852 (1) and 2.971 (2) Å reported by Yang et al. (2007). The N—H···Cl hydrogen boding is present in the
(Table 2).For Cu—Cl bond distances, see: Alves et al. (2004); Yang et al. (2007).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Copper(II) complexes bridged by a pair of Cl atoms have been widely investigated in both bioinorganic chemistry and coordination chemistry (Yang et al., 2007; Alves et al., 2004). As a further study of the structures of such complexes, the crystal structure of the title complex is reported here.
The molecular structure of the title complex is illustrated in Fig. 1. The CuII atom are in a distorted square-pyramidal coordination environment (Table 1). The two copper atoms are bridged by a pair of Cl atoms, resulting in complex with centro-symmetric structures. The apical Cu—Cl bond length is 2.9858 (18) Å, whic is longer than 2.737 Å reported by Alves et al. (2004), and 2.852 (1) and 2.971 (2) Å reported by Yang et al. (2007). The N—H···Cl hydrogen boding is present in the crystal structure (Table 2).
