title: Chlorido(pentane-2,4-dionato-κO,O')(1,10-phenanthroline-κN,N')copper(II).
abstract: The Cu(II) atom in the title compound, [Cu(C(5)H(7)O(2))Cl(C(12)H(8)N(2))], shows a distorted square-planar coordination; the chelating N and O atoms occupy the basal sites and the Cl atom the apical site. The square-pyramidal character along the Berry D(3h)-C(4v) pseudorotation pathway is 92%.
