Abstract The tridentate Schiff base, β-resorcylidene aminoguanidine (RAG)1 was synthesized from 2,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde and aminoguanidine and complexed with copper(II) to form a copper(II)-β-resorcylidene aminoguanidine (Cu-RAG)2 complex. X-ray diffraction analysis of compound2 (orthorhombic, Pnma,a=11.674(1);b=6.7198(7);c=17.836(2) Å) revealed a square-planar copper(II) cation with a tridentate·ligand bound through two nitrogen atoms (N1 and N3) of the aminoguanidine moiety and an oxygen (O1) of the monodeprotonated dihydroxybenzaldehyde function. The remaining coordination site was occupied by chloride and the structure was rigidly planar as demanded by the restrictions of the crystallographic space group. The unit cell contents exhibited an extended sheet-like structure constructed via hydrogen bonds both intermolecularly and involving two water molecules (O3 and O4) also restricted by the same mirror symmetry. The remaining water (O5) provided for interlayer hydrogen bonding.
