Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of dichlorido(methanol-κO)bis(2-methylpyridine-κN)copper(II)
In the title complex, [CuCl2(C6H7N)2(CH3OH)], the copper atom is five-coordinated by two nitrogen atoms of 2-methylpyridine ligands, two chloro ligands and an oxygen atom of the methanol molecule, being in a tetragonal–pyramidal environment with N and Cl atoms forming the basal plane. In the crystal...

| Summary: | In the title complex, [CuCl2(C6H7N)2(CH3OH)], the copper atom is five-coordinated by two nitrogen atoms of 2-methylpyridine ligands, two chloro ligands and an oxygen atom of the methanol molecule, being in a tetragonal–pyramidal environment with N and Cl atoms forming the basal plane. In the crystal, complex molecules related by the twofold rotation axis are joined into dimeric units by pairs of O—H...Cl hydrogen bonds. These dimeric units are assembled through C—H...Cl interactions into layers parallel to (001). |
