Bis(acesulfamato‐κ2O4,N)bis­(3‐methyl­pyridine)copper(II)

In the crystal structure of the title compound {systematic name: bis­6‐methyl‐1,2,3‐oxa­thia­zin‐4(3H)‐one 2,2‐dioxide(1?)‐κ²N³,O⁴]bis­(3‐meth­yl­pyridine)copper(II)}, Cu(C₄H₄NO₄S)₂(C₆H₇N)₂], the Cu^II centre resides on a centre of symmetry and has an octa­hedral geometry that is distorted both by the presence of four‐membered chelate rings and because of the Jahn–Teller effect. The equatorial plane is formed by the N atoms of two methyl­pyridine ligands and by the more basic O atoms of the acesulfamate ligands, while the weakly basic N atoms of these ligands are in elongated axial positions with a misdirected valence. The crystal is stabilized by two inter­molecular C—H?O inter­actions involving the methyl and CH groups, and the sulfonyl O atoms of the acesulfamate group.
