{2-[2-(1H-1,3-Benzimidazol-2-yl)ethyl­iminometh­yl]-4-chloro­phenolato}thio­cyanato­copper(II) monohydrate

In the title compound, [Cu(C16H13ClN3O)(NCS)]·H2O, the CuII atom adopts a distorted square-planar coordination with two N atoms and one O atom of the tridentate phenolate ligand, and one N atom of the thio­cyanate anion. N—H⋯S, O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds give rise to a two-dimensional network.
