A new complex, [Cu(imme2py)2](ClO4) (imme2py = 2-(2'-(6'-methylpyridyl))-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1H-imidazolyl-1-oxyl) has been synthesized and structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction methods. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic crystal system, space group P212121. The structure consists of [Cu(imme2py)2]+ cations and chloride anions. The coordination geometry about Cu(I) is tetrahedral with the four coordination sites being occupied by four nitrogen atoms. Magnetic measurements show intramolecular antiferromagnetic interactions between the imino nitroxides.
