{3-[Bis(2-pyridylmethyl-κN)amino-κN]propanol}bis(nitrato-κO)copper(II)

In the title compound, [Cu(NO3)2(C15H19N3O)], the CuII ion is coordinated by the N atoms of the tetradentate 3-[bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amino]propanol ligand and two O atoms from two monodentate nitrate anions, resulting in a distorted square-pyramidal environment. An intermolecular O—H......

Description
Summary:In the title compound, [Cu(NO3)2(C15H19N3O)], the CuII ion is coordinated by the N atoms of the tetradentate 3-[bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amino]propanol ligand and two O atoms from two monodentate nitrate anions, resulting in a distorted square-pyramidal environment. An intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen-bonding interaction between the free hydroxy group of the ligand and a nitrate O atom of an adjacent complex unit, gives a chain structure which extends across the (101) planes.
