✦ Synopsis

The anion (loss of 3N hydrogen) of 2-acetylpyridine 4N-methylthiosemicarbazone coordinates in a planar conformation to copper(II) through the pyridyl nitrogen, azomethine nitrogen and thiolato sulphur atoms. The fourth coordination site is occupied by a bromo ligand and the complex is mononuclear and essentially planar. Bond distances and angles, as well as solid state and solution spectral properties, are compared to other rcccntly reported copper(II) thiosemicarbazone complexes.
