title: Bis(acetato-κO,O')bis-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole-κN)copper(II).
abstract: In the title compound, [Cu(C(2)H(3)O(2))(2)(C(5)H(8)N(2))(2)], the Cu(II) atom has a distorted tetra-gonal-bipyramidal geometry, with the equatorial plane formed by two N atoms belonging to two 3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole ligands and two O atoms from two acetate anions. The second O atoms of the acetate groups provide elongated Cu-O axial contacts, so that the acetates appear to be coordinated in a pseudo-chelate fashion. The pyrazole ligands are situated in cis positions with respect to each other. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked through inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a one-dimensional chain.
