%X The crystal structure of [C13H10N] [CuCl3(C13H9N)].H2O(C13H9N &#8801; acridine ) has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods at 295 K, being refined by least squares to a residual of 0.037 for 1942 independent 'observed' reflections. Crystals are triclinic, P&#299; , a 16.27(2), b 10.080(8), c 7.236(5) &#506;, &#945; 88.85(6), &#946; 82.68(8), &#947; 81.12(9)&#176;, Z 2. The metal atom stereochemistry is unusual, being of pseudo-m symmetry; one of the chlorine atoms is coplanar with the copper and the acridine [Cu- Cl 2.237(2) &#506;, N-Cu- Cl 143.5(1)&#176;], with the other two disposed to either side of that plane [Cu- Cl 2.252(3), 2.243(2) &#506;; Cl-Cu-Cl 145.62(7)&#176;]. Cu-N is 2.018(5) &#506;.
