Abstract: | In the title complex, [Cu(C7H4NO3S)2(C2H7NO)2], the CuII centre lies on an inversion centre and exhibits octahedral coordination, with the two ethanolamine (Hea) and two saccharinate [sac; anionic 1,2-benzisothiazol-3(2H)-one 1,1-dioxide] ligands in a trans configuration. The bidentate Hea ligands bridge axial and equatorial positions and the sac anions occupy equatorial sites around the distorted octahedral copper(II) centre [Cu—O = 2.3263 (16), Cu—NHea = 1.9923 (16) and Cu—Nsac = 2.1776 (16) Å]. |
