Abstract
In the title compound, [Cu(C3H5N)3(C12H18N6)](ClO4)2·2H2O, the CuII atom lies on a threefold rotation axis and is coordinated in a distorted N6 octahedral environment by three tertiary amines from the tridentate chelating azamacrocyclic ligand and three propionitrile molecules. Intermolecular non-classical C—H⋯N hydrogen bonding interlinks the [Cu(C3H5N)3(C12H18N6)]2+ cations into a two-dimensional supramolecular sheet extending along the ab plane. The crystal packing also exhibits weak C—H⋯O interactions.

The cell s.u.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of s.u.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between s.u.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry
