Abstract

In the title compound, [Cu(C15H11N3O3)(C10H8N2)], the CuII atom is five-coordinated in a distorted square-pyramidal CuN3O2 geometry. The basal positions are occupied by three donor atoms from the tridentate Schiff base ligand and by one N atom from the 2,2′-bipyridine ligand. The axial position is occupied by the other N atom of the 2,2′-bipyridine ligand. The crystal structure is consolidated by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. In addition, π–π inter­actions between adjacent pyridine rings (centroid–centroid distances = 3.238 and 3.313 Å) may also stabilize the crystal packing.

Highlights

  • The basal positions are occupied by three donor atoms from the tridentate Schiff base ligand and by one

  • The axial position is occupied by the other N atom of the 2,20 -bipyridine ligand

  • The crystal structure is consolidated by weak C—H O
