Abstract
The structure of bis(acetylacetonato)copper(II) has been redetermined from single crystal X-ray diffraction data. The unit cell parameters area=11.331(9),b=4.697(3),c=10.290(9) Å, andβ=91.84(7)dg. A finalR=0.056 for 727 observed reflections was obtained. The O-Cu-O chelate (bite) angle is 93.2(2)°. The two Cu-O bond lengths are 1.914(4) and 1.912(4) Å. The complex has a slight chair structure and a step angle of 7.05°.
