In the title molecule, C19H18Br4N2O2, the dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 73.9 (2)°. Two intramolecular N—HO hydrogen bonds make S(6) ring motifs. In the crystal, molecules are linked via C—HO interactions, forming chains propagating along the a-axis directon. A short CBr [3.401 (5) Å] contact is present in the crystal structure, which is further stabilized by a π–π interaction [centroid–centroid distance = 3.739 (3) Å].

In the title compound, [Cu(C19H16Br4N2O2)], the CuII ion and the substituted C atom of the diamine fragment lie on a crystallographic twofold rotation axis. The geometry around the CuII ion is distorted square-planar, which is defined by the N2O2 donor atoms of the coordinated Schiff base ligand. The dihedral angle between the symmetry-related substituted benzene rings is 25.33 (14)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by an intermolecular π–π interaction [centroid–centroid distance = 3.8891 (18) Å].
