Abstract

The title compound, [Cu(C2H3N)(2)(C10H24N4)](C32H12BF24)(2).0.31H(2)O, crystallizes as an ionic species with no interactions between the ions. The [Cu-II(cyclam)(MeCN)(2)](2+) dication (cyclam is 1,4,8,11-tetraazatetradecane), located on a 2/m symmetry site, forms as a distorted octahedral species with four Cu-N-cyclam bonds of 2.013 (2) Angstrom and two C-N-MeCN bonds of 2.499 (4) Angstrom. The [B{C6H3(CF3)- 3,5}(4)](-) anion, located on a twofold axis, is a distorted octahedral species. A small amount of water is present, occupying sites between columns of ions.
