2-Hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde (1.0 mmol, 172.3 mg), N-propylethane-1,2-diamine (1.0 mmol, 102.2 mg), sodium azide (1.0 mmol, 65.0 mg), and copper acetate (1.0 mmol, 199.1 mg) were dissolved in a methanol solution (150 ml). The mixture was refluxed at 340 K for about 1 h to give a clear blue solution. After keeping the cooled resulting solution in dark for 12 days, blue block-shaped crystals were formed.
All the H atoms were placed in idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H distances in the range 0.93–0.97 Å, N—H distances of 0.91 Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C/N) and 1.5Ueq(C16 and C16'). The propyl group is disordered and it was modelled using two sets of atom sites, refined isotropically with occupancies of 0.37 (3) and 0.63 (3), respectively.

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. |

During the last few years, there has been a great effort to identify the biological role of copper (Collinson & Fenton, 1996; Hossain et al., 1996; Tarafder et al., 2002). It appears that the biological role of copper is primarily in redox reactions and as a biological catalyst, although much remains to be understood (Musie et al., 2003; García-Raso et al., 2003). The peculiarity of copper lies in its ability to form complexes with coordination number four, five, and six (Ray et al., 2003; Arnold et al., 2003; Raptopoulou et al., 1998). Recently, we have reported several Schiff base copper(II) complexes with azide ligand (Zhu et al., 2006; Wei & Wang, 2006). Here the structure of the title complex (I), Fig. 1, is reported.
Complex (I) is a mononuclear copper(II) compound. The CuII ion is four-coordinated by one imine N, one amine N, and one phenolate O atoms of a Schiff base ligand, and by one terminal N atom of an azide anion, forming a square planar coordination. All the bond lengths are in normal ranges (Allen et al., 1987). The bond lengths (Table 1) related to the CuII ion are comparable to the values of the complexes we reported previously corresponding, and also comparable to the values of other Schiff base copper(II) complexes (Hebbachi & Benali-Cherif, 2005; Butcher et al., 2003). The bond angles around the central metal ion show somewhat deviations from ideal square planar geometry, ranging from 87.2 (2) to 93.8 (2) °. The two trans bond angles are 177.3 (2) and 177.8 (2) °, respectively.
