Abstract
The structure of [Cu(II)(bqdmpn)](NO3)2 [BQDMPN = N,N′-bis(2-methylquinolyl)dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine] was determined by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction method at 93 K. The compound crystallized in a orthorhombic system and was characterized thus: Pbcn, a = 12.666(2), b = 12.687(2), c = 15.113(3)Å, Z = 4, V = 2428.7(7)Å3. The R1 [I > 2σ(I)] and wR2 (all data) values are 0.0356 and 0.0994, respectively, for all 3907 independent reflections. The geometry around the copper center is distorted square planar with BQDMPN.
