Abstract A new monomeric copper(II) complex with 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) and betaine (bet), [Cu(byy)(bet)2(H2O)](ClO4)2 · H2O, has been prepared and characterized by X-ray crystallography. The complex crystallizes in the triclinic space groupP-1 witha=8.859(2),b=11.191(2),c=14.850(3) Å, α=91.41(1), β=97.19(1), γ=91.97(1)°,V=1459.2(7) Å3, andZ=2. The structure comprises discrete cations [Cu(bpy)(bet)2(H2O)]2+ in which the metal atom is coordinated in a distorted square-pyramidal environment by two oxygen atoms from a pair of monodentate carboxylato ligands [Cu−O=1.950(2) Å] and two nitrogen atoms of a bidentate bpy ligand [Cu−N=1.997(3)−2.005(3) Å] on the basal plane, and one aqua [Cu−O=2.267(3) Å] ligand at the apical position.
