Abstract

In the title heterodinuclear salen-type complex, [CuDy(C19H 20N2O4)(NO3)3] ·CH3OH, the copper(II) ion is tetracoordinated by two imino N atoms [Cu - N = 1.961 (4) and 1.968 (4) Å] and two phenolate O atoms [Cu - O = 1.931 (3) and 1.938 (3) Å] in a planar geometry. The tencoordinate DyIII ion is ligated by six O atoms of three nitrate groups and four O atoms from the ligand [Dy - O = 2.368 (3)-2.601 (3) Å]. In the crystal, complex molecules and solvent molecules are linked by intermolecular O - H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
