The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [CuCl(C(10)H(6)NO(2))(C(14)H(12)N(2))], contains two monomeric copper molecules, A and B. Each Cu atom is coordinated to one 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (neocuproine) ligand via both N atoms, to one isoquinoline-1-carboxylate anion (IQC(-)) via the N and one O atom, and to one Cl(-) anion. The environment of the Cu atom is approximately square pyramidal, with the apical position occupied by an N atom of neocuproine. In molecule A, the Cu atom is 0.301 (1) A above the basal plane; this distance is 0.316 (1) A in molecule B. The crystal packing is characterized by several hydrogen bonds.

D006860	Hydrogen Bonding	A low-energy attractive force between hydrogen and another element. It plays a major role in determining the properties of water, proteins, and other compounds.	Hydrogen Bonds,Bond, Hydrogen,Hydrogen Bond
D000894	Anti-Inflammatory Agents, Non-Steroidal	Anti-inflammatory agents that are non-steroidal in nature. In addition to anti-inflammatory actions, they have analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions. They act by blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenase, which converts arachidonic acid to cyclic endoperoxides, precursors of prostaglandins. Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis accounts for their analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions; other mechanisms may contribute to their anti-inflammatory effects.
