The CuII atom in the title compound, [CuCl2(C16H15N3O)]·H2O, is N,N′,O-chelated by the neutral Schiff base ligand and exists in a square-pyramidal geometry. It is displaced by 0.316 (1) Å out of the square plane (r.m.s. deviation = 0.015 Å) in the direction of the apical Cl atom. The apical Cl atoms of adjacent complex units are hydrogen-bond acceptors to two water molecules, the interaction generating a centrosymmetric dimer through a cyclic R42(8) association.

1-[(E)-[Phenyl(pyridin-2-yl)methylidene]amino]pyrrolidin-2-one was synthesized in situ from 2-benzoylpyridine (0.183 g, 1 mmol) and 1-aminopyrrolidin-2-one (0.100 g, 1 mmol) by heating in methanol for 2 h. Copper(II) chloride dihydrate (0.170 g, 1 mmol) was added, and the mixture heated for 5 h. The resulting pale green solid was collected and recrystallized from methanol.
Carbon-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H = 0.93–0.97 Å) and were included in the
in the riding model approximation, with Uiso(H) set to 1.2Ueq(C). The water H-atoms were located in a difference Fourier map, and were refined with a distance restraint of O—H = 0.84±0.01 Å, with their displacement parameters refined. The (0 1 0) reflection was omitted owing to interference from the beam stop.Data collection: APEX2 (Bruker, 2010); cell

Among the plethora of Schiff bases that have been synthesized for the purpose of furnishing coordination compounds, some are synthesized in situ, and their formulation is inferred from the crystal structure of the product. Phenyl[(pyridin-2-yl)methylidene]amino]pyrrolidin-2-one is an example of such a Schiff base, which possess a carbonyl group and it forms a monohydrated complex with copper(II) chloride (Scheme I, Fig. 1). The CuII atom in this complex is N,N',O-chelated by the neutral Schiff ligand and has a square-pyramidal geometry, with the atom displaced out of the square plane in the direction of the apical Cl atom by 0.316 (1) Å. The apical Cl atoms of adjacent complex units are hydrogen-bond acceptors to two water molecules (Table 1), the interaction generating a centrosymmetric dimer (Fig. 2) through a cyclic R24(8) association (Etter et al., 1990).
