[2,2'-(1,1'-Binaphthyl-2,2'-diyldiimino)-diethanol-κN,N',O]dichloridocopper(II).

In the title complex, [CuCl2(C24H24N2O2)], the CuII cation is N,N′,O-chelated by a 2,2′-(1,1′-binaphthyl-2,2′-diyldiimino)diethanol ligand and coordinated by two chloride anions in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry. In the diethanol ligand, the two naphthalene ring systems are twisted with respect to each other at a dihedral angle of 68.30 (9)°. The uncoordinated hydroxy group links with a coordinated chloride anion via an intramolecular O—H⋯Cl hydrogen bond. Intermolecular N—H⋯O and N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds occur in the crystal structure.
