The Cu(II) atom in the title compound, [Cu(C(13)H(11)N(4)O)(NCO)], is N,N',O-chelated by the mono-deprotonated Schiff base ligand and it is also covalently bonded to the nitro-gen end of the cyanate ion. The Cu(II) atom shows a square-planar coordination that is distorted towards square-pyramidal owing to an inter-molecular Cu⋯N(cyanate) inter-action [2.623 (2) Å], which gives a centrosymmetric dimer. In the square-planar description, the Cu(II) atom is displaced out of the square plane [r.m.s. ...[more]
