Bis{2-[2-(isopropylammonio)ethyliminomethyl]-5-methoxyphenolato}copper(II) bis(perchlorate)

In the title compound, [Cu(C13H20N2O2)2](ClO4)2, the CuII atom in the complex dication is chelated by two phenolate O atoms and two imine N atoms from two zwitterionic 2-[2-(isopropylammonio)ethyliminomethyl]-5-methoxyphenolate ligands, forming a distorted square-planar geometry. One of the perchlorate anions is disordered over two sites with occupancies of 0.611 (15) and 0.389 (15). Intramolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds are observed in the complex dication. In the crystal structure, the perchlorate anions are linked to complex dications by intermolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
