Crystal structure of {2-[({2-[(2-amino­eth­yl)amino]­eth­yl}imino)­meth­yl]pheno­lato}aqua­copper(II) bromide

In the mononuclear copper(II) title complex, [Cu(C₁₁H₁₆N₃O)(H₂O)]Br, the Cu^II atom is coordinated by one O and three N atoms of the Schiff base ligand that forms together with one water mol­ecule a slightly distorted [CuN₃O₂] square-pyramidal polyhedron. The deviation of the Cu^II atom from the mean equatorial plane is 0.182 (2) Å. The equatorial plane is nearly coplanar to the aromatic ring of the ligand [angle between planes = 10.4 (1)°], and the water molecule is situated in the apical site. All coordinating atoms (except the imine nitro­gen) and the bromide ion contribute to the formation of the N—H...Br, O—H...Br and O—H...O hydrogen bonds, which link mol­ecules into chains along [01-1].
