Tetra-μ-acetato-bis[(1,3-benzothiazole)copper(II)](Cu—Cu)

The title compound, [Cu2(CH3CO2)4(C7H5NS)2] or [(C7H5NS)Cu]2(μ-O2CCH3)4, crystallizes with one molecule per unit cell. The coordination number of copper is six with four basal O atoms, one axial N atom and one axial Cu atom. Four acetate ligands act as bidentate linker and connect two Cu atoms, with a crystallographic inversion center located at the mid-point of the Cu—Cu bond. The acetate ligands form slightly distorted square planes around each metal ion, while the copper ions are displaced by 0.2089 (4) Å from these planes towards the N atoms. Thus, the Cu—Cu distance is elongated to 2.6378 (7) Å, compared with the 2.2180 (7) Å distance between the two basal planes. The angle between the basal plane and the Cu—N bond is 4.84 (6)°.
