Abstract
The crystal structure of the title compound, [Cu 2 (C 2 F 3 O 2 ) 2 (C 10 H 8 N 3 O) 2 ]·2CH 3 CN, contains discrete [Cu 2 (CF 3 COO) 2 (O-dpa) 2 ] molecules (O-dpaH is di-2-pyridylamine 1-oxide) which have imposed crystallographic twofold symmetry and an acetonitrile molecule of solvation. The O-dpa − ligand is both bidentate and bridging, linking two Cu atoms with a separation of 3.4270 (11) Å. Each Cu atom is surrounded by four coordinated atoms that are almost coplanar, with dimensions Cu—N = 1.940 (2) and 1.984 (3) Å, and Cu—O = 1.912 (2) and 1.945 (2) Å.
