Diazido{(S)-1-phenyl-N,N-bis[(2-pyridyl)methyl]ethanamine}copper(II)

In the title compound, [Cu(N3)2(C20H21N3)], the CuII ion is coordinated by the three N atoms of the (S)-1-phenyl-N,N-bis[(2-pyridyl)methyl]ethanamine ligand and two N atoms from two azide anions, resulting in a distorted square-pyramidal environment. A weak intermolecular C—H...N hydro...

Description
Summary:In the title compound, [Cu(N3)2(C20H21N3)], the CuII ion is coordinated by the three N atoms of the (S)-1-phenyl-N,N-bis[(2-pyridyl)methyl]ethanamine ligand and two N atoms from two azide anions, resulting in a distorted square-pyramidal environment. A weak intermolecular C—H...N hydrogen-bonding interaction between one pyridine group of the ligand and an azide N atom of an adjacent complex unit gives a one-dimensional chain structure parallel to the c axis.
