An Exact Quasi-Ferrodistortive Ordering in (N,N'-Di-n-butylthiourea-S)(N-salicylideneglycinato-O,N,O')copper(II)

The Cu^II atom in the title compound, [Cu(C₉H₇NO₃)(C₉H₂₀N₂S)], adopts distorted square-planar coordination with a tridentate N-salicylideneglycinato Schiff base dianion and an N,N'-dibutylthiourea ligand bonded via its S atom. The molecules stack along [001] and are ordered quasi-ferrodistortively with two different magnetic orientations.
