In the title compound, [CuCl2(C13H19N3O)]·H2O, the tridentate Schiff base ligand and the two Cl atoms complete a distorted square-pyramidal coordination geometry around the CuII ion in which the three N atoms and one Cl atom are located in the basal plane and the other Cl atom is at the apical position. In the crystal, O—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds link the complex molecules and the uncoordinated water molecules into infinite chains along the a axis. The chains are further connected into a three-dimensional network via C—H⋯O and C—H⋯Cl interactions.

A mixture of 2-acetylpyridine (0.20 g, 1.65 mmol) and 4-(2-aminoethyl)morpholine (0.21 g, 1.65 mmol) in ethanol (20 ml) was refluxed. After 2 hr a solution of copper(II) chloride dihydrate (0.28 g, 1.65 mmol) in a minimum amount of ethanol was added and the resulting solution was refluxed for 30 min, then set aside at room temperature. The crystals of the title complex were obtained after a few days.
The C-bound hydrogen atoms were placed at calculated positions (C—H 0.95–0.99 Å) and were treated as riding on their parent atoms. The O-bound H atoms were placed in a difference Fourier map, and were refined with distance restraint of O—H 0.84 (2) Å. For all hydrogen atoms Uiso(H) were set to 1.2–1.5 times Ueq(carrier atom).

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. |

The asymmetric unit of the title compound consists of a copper(II) complex and one molecule of water. Like the CdCl2 complex of the Schiff base, 2-morpholino-N-[1-(2-pyridyl)ethylidene]ethanamine, (Ikmal Hisham et al., 2010) the metal ion in the present structure is five-coordinated by the N,N',N"-tridentate Schiff base ligand and two Cl atoms in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry, the τ value (Addison et al.,1984) being 0.15. The Cu—Cl and Cu—N interatomic distances are comparable to the values reported in the literature (Saleh Salga et al., 2010; Wang et al., 2009). In the crystal, the adjacent metal complexes and water molecules are linked into a three-dimensional network via O—H···Cl, C—H···Cl and C—H···O interactions. In addition, intramolecular C—H···Cl hydrogen bonding is observed.
