(2,2′-Bipyridine)bis­(triphenyl­phosphine)copper(I) nitrate chloro­form solvate hemihydrate

In the title compound, [Cu(C(10)H(8)N(2))(C(18)H(15)P)(2)]NO(2)·CHCl(3)·0.5H(2)O, the Cu atom is tetra­hedrally coordinated by a bidentate 2,2′-bipyridine ligand and two PPh(3) ligands. The Cu—N and Cu—P distances are similar to those observed in similar compounds. The range of coordination angles shows a moderate distortion from ideal tetra­hedral geometry. The bipyridine ligand is twisted [14.2 (4)°] about the ring–ring C—C bond. The nitrate anion and the water and chloro­form mol­ecules of solvation are disordered. In the crystal structure, there are O(water)—H⋯O(nitrate), C—H⋯O(water) and C—H⋯O(nitrate) hydrogen bonds.
