✦ Synopsis
The title compound, [Cu(C 15 H 14 NO) 2 ], adopts a stepped conformation and displays a square-planar trans-[CuN 2 O 2 ] coordination geometry. The asymmetric unit contains two independent half molecules and each Cu atom is located on a center of symmetry. For one molecule, the CuÐN and CuÐO bond distances are 2.013 (2) and 1.893 (2) A Ê , respectively, while for the other molecule, these distances are 2.008 (2) and 1.896 (2) A Ê . The extended conformation of the phenethylimine pendant groups results in crystal packing formed by weakly aggregated planar molecules.
