Bis{μ-2-[bis(pyridin-2-yl)methylidene]hydrazinecarbothioamidato}bis[bromidocopper(II)] methanol disolvate

In the centrosymmetric binuclear title compound, [Cu2Br2(C12H10N5S)2]·2CH3OH, the CuII ion adopts a slightly distorted square-pyramidal coordination geometry. The hydrazine carbothioamide moiety and one of the pyridyl rings together adopt an almost planar arrangement, with a maximum deviation of 0.052 (4) for the C atom of the thiourea moiety. There are two molecules of methanol solvent per complex in the asymmetric unit. The nonconventional intramolecular C—H...Br hydrogen bonds make the molecule more rigid, whereas the conventional N—H...N and O—H...Br intermolecular hydrogen-bonding interactions, supported with N—H...π interactions, establish a supramolecular linkage among the molecules in the crystal. An intermolecular C—H...O interaction is also present.
