Abstract
The coordination polyhedron of the Cu-II ion in the title compound is best described as a distorted trigonal bipyramid with an imidazole and two pyridine N atoms bonded in the equatorial plane, and a Cl- ion an d an amine N atom bonded along the axial direction. The Cu-N(amine) bo nd length is 2.087 (4) Angstrom, while the Cu-N(imidazole) and Cu-N(py ridine) bond lengths are 1.979 (3), 2.044 (3) and 2.153 (3) Angstrom, respectively. The Cu-Cl distance is 2.232(1) Angstrom. A fairly satisf actory model was found for the disordered PF6- counterion.
