Dichlorido-2κ2Cl-{μ-6,6′-dimethoxy-2,2′-[propane-1,3-diylbis(nitrilomethylidyne)]diphenolato-1κ4O1,N,N′,O1′:2κ2O1,O1′}copper(II)zinc(II)

Abstract

In the title compound, [CuZnCl2(C19H20N2O4)], the CuII ion exhibits a slightly distorted square-planar coordination geometry defined by two N atoms and two O atoms of the 6,6′-dimethoxy-2,2′-[propane-1,3-diylbis(nitrilomethylidyne)]diphenolate Schiff base ligand. The ZnII ion is also four-coordinated by the two phenolate O atoms of the Schiff base ligand and by two cis-coordinated chloride anions.
