Abstract

The complete mol-ecule of the title complex, [Cu(3)(C(15)H(13)N(2)O(3))(2)(C(5)H(5)N)(2)], is generated by crystallographic twofold symmetry, with the central Cu atom lying on the rotation axis: it is coordinated by two N,O-bidentate ligands in a trans-CuN(2)O(2) distorted square-planar arrangement. The other Cu atom is coordinated by an N,O,O'-tridentate ligand and a pyridine mol-ecule in a distorted trans-CuN(2)O(2) arrangement. In the crystal structure, a C-H⋯π inter-action occurs.
