title: Bis[bis(methoxycarbimido)amine-kappa2N,N']bis(perchlorato-kappaO)copper(II) bis[bis(methoxycarbimido)amine-kappa2N,N']bis(methanol-kappaO)copper(II) bis(perchlorate) methanol disolvate.
abstract: The title compound, [Cu(ClO4)2(C4H9N3O2)2][Cu(C4H9N3O2)2(CH4O)2](ClO4)2.2CH3OH, comprises two independent Cu(II) species lying on different inversion sites. In the Cu complexes, a distorted octahedral geometry arises (from basic square-planar N4 coordination) from the weak coordination of two perchlorate ions (as Cu-O) in one species and two methanol molecules in the other (also as Cu-O). Interactions between the O atoms of the perchlorate anions or methanol groups and the imide or amine NH groups afford an extensive intermolecular hydrogen-bonding network.
