%X A discrete neutral CuII complex, [Cu(CF3SO3)2(C16H18N4)], has been derived from the symmetrical tetradentate Schiff base, N,N¡ä-bis[1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethylidene]ethane-1,2-diamine. The copper centre assumes a tetragonally distorted pseudo-octahedral geometry with the O atoms of two trifluoromethanesulfonate anions coordinated weakly in the axial positions. The Cu¡ªN distances lie in the range 1.941 (3)¨C2.011 (3)   and the Cu¡ªO distances are 2.474 (3) and 2.564 (3)  .
