Two new Ar-BIAN Cu(II) complexes (where Ar-BIAN = bis(aryl-imino)acenaphthene) of formulations [CuCl2(Mes-BIAN)] (1) (Mes = 2,4,6-Me3C6H2) and [CuCl2(Dipp-BIAN)] (2) (Dipp = 2,6-iPr2C6H3) were synthesised by direct reaction of CuCl2 suspended in dichloromethane with the respective ligands Mes-BIAN (L1) and Dipp-BIAN
