(Dimethyl­formamide-κO)[2-meth­oxy-6-(2-pyridylmethyl­imino­meth­yl)phenolato-κ3N,N′,O1](thio­cyanato-κN)copper(II)

In the title compound, [Cu(C14H13N2O2)(NCS)(C3H7NO)], the Cu2+ ion is coordinated by an N,N′,O-tridentate 2-meth­oxy-6-(2-pyridylmethyl­imino­meth­yl)phenolate ligand, an N-bonded thio­cyanate ion and an O-bonded dimethyl­formamide (DMF) mol­ecule, resulting in a distorted CuN3O2 square-based pyramidal geometry for the metal ion, with the DMF O atom in the apical site. The dihedral angle between the aromatic rings in the ligand is 8.70 (16)°. The S atom is disordered over two positions in a 0.901 (6):0.099 (6) ratio. In the crystal, mol­ecules inter­act by way of π–π stacking inter­actions [centroid–centroid separation = 3.720 (2) A].
