Bis[N'-(9H-fluoren-9-yl-idene)benzohydrazidato-κN',O]copper(II).

ABSTRACT

In the title complex, [Cu(C(20)H(13)N(2)O)(2)], the Cu(II) ion is tetra-coordinated by an N(2)O(2) set of two ligands in a distorted recta-ngular-planar geometry. The dihedral angle between the two coordinated five-membered metalla rings is 37.5 (3)°. The mol-ecular configuration is stabilized by two C-H⋯O and two C-H⋯N intra-molecular hydrogen bonds. The crystal packing is dominated by van der Waals inter-actions. Three atoms of the phenyl ring of the benzohydrazidate moiety are disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.625 (18)0.375 (18) ratio.
