Crystal structure of bis­(μ(2)-tetra­bromo­phthalato-κ(2) O (1):O (2))bis[aqua(N,N,N′,N′-tetra­methyl­ethane-1,2-di­amine-κ(2) N,N′)copper(II)]

In the title complex, [Cu(2)(C(8)Br(4)O(4))(2)(C(6)H(16)N(2))(2)(H(2)O)(2)], the Cu(II) cation is chelated by a tetra­methyl­ethane-1,2-di­amine ligand and coordinated by a water mol­ecule as well as bridged by two tetra­bromo­phthalate anions in a distorted O(3)N(2) trigonal–bipyramidal geometry. The two symmetry-related tetra­bromo­phthalate anions bridge the two Cu(II) cations, forming a centrosymmetric dinuclear complex in which the Cu⋯Cu separation is 5.054 (2) Å. Intra­molecular classic O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds occur in the dinuclear mol­ecule. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are linked by weak C—H⋯Br and C—H⋯O inter­actions into supra­molecular chains propagating along the b-axis direction.
