title: Bis[μ-4,4',6,6'-tetra-chloro-2,2'-(piperazine-1,4-diyldimethyl-ene)diphenolato]dicopper(II).
abstract: In the centrosymmetric dinuclear Cu(II) title complex, [Cu(2)(C(18)H(16)Cl(4)N(2)O(2))(2)], the Cu(II) atom adopts a square-pyramidal geometry with a tetra-dentate ligand in the basal plane. The apical site is occupied by a phenolate O atom from an adjacent ligand, forming a dimer. The mol-ecular structure is stabilized by intra-molecular C-H⋯O and C-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds.
