| Abstract: | The crystal structure of the title compound, [Cu2(C2F3O2)2(C10H8N3O)2]·2CH3CN, contains discrete [Cu2(CF3COO)2(O‐dpa)2] molecules (O‐dpaH is di‐2‐pyridylamine 1‐oxide) which have imposed crystallographic twofold symmetry and an acetonitrile molecule of solvation. The O‐dpa− ligand is both bidentate and bridging, linking two Cu atoms with a separation of 3.4270 (11) Å. Each Cu atom is surrounded by four coordinated atoms that are almost coplanar, with dimensions Cu—N = 1.940 (2) and 1.984 (3) Å, and Cu—O = 1.912 (2) and 1.945 (2) Å. |
