Abstract:
The crystal structure of the title compound, chloro(1, 10-phenanthroline-N,N')(1-phenyl-1,3-butanedionato-O,O')copper(II), [CuCl(C(10)H(9)O(2))(C(12)H(8)N(2))], has been determined. The Cu(II) ion displays a distorted square-pyramidal coordination, being linked to the two O atoms of the benzoylacetonate ligand and the two N atoms of the 1,10-phenanthroline ligand in the basal plane, and the Cl atom in the apical site. TheCu-N, Cu-O and Cu-Cl bond lengths are 2.043 (2)/2.025 (2), 1.914 (2)/1.941 (2) and 2.485 (1) A, respectively.
