Abstract:
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [CuCl(3)(C(8)H(14)N(3))(H(2)O)]·H(2)O, comprises a neutral complex and a mol-ecule of free water. The complex contains coordinated Cu(II) ions, with Cu-Cl distances ranging from 2.3471 (8) to 2.4011 (8) Å, and with Cu-N and Cu-O distances of 2.0775 (19) and 2.0048 (18) Å, respectively. The resulting coordination polyhedron is a trigonal bipyramid with the Cl atoms in the equatorial plane. In the crystal, O-H⋯Cl and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into a three-dimensional structure.
