In the title complex, [Cu(C(14)H(13)N(2)O(2))(2)], the Cu(II) ion is located on a crystallographic inversion center. The complex thus adopts a square-planar trans-[CuN(2)O(2)] coordination geometry, with the Cu(II) ion coordinated by two 2-meth-oxy-6-(3-pyridylmethyl-imino-meth-yl)phenolate (Schiff base) ligands. The aryl and pyridyl rings in the Schiff base are almost perpendicular to each other, with a dihedral angle of 87.61 (6)° between the planes of the two six-membered rings. The pyridyl r ...[more]
