title: Bis(hexa-methyl-enetetra-mine)bis-(tri-chloro-acetato)copper(II).
abstract: In the title compound, [Cu(C(2)Cl(3)O(2))(2)(C(6)H(12)N(4))(2)], the Cu(II) ion (site symmetry 2) is coordinated by two trichloro-acetate anions and two hexa-methyl-enetetra-mine mol-ecules, resulting in a distorted CuN(2)O(2) geometry that is inter-mediate between tetra-hedral and square planar. The Cl atoms are disordered over two sets of sites, with relative occupancies of 0.749 (7) and 0.251 (7). In the crystal, the packing is consolidated by inter-molecular C-H⋯O inter-actions.
