The crystal structure of bis(acetato)bis(2-methylbenzimidazole)copper(II) has been determined. The complex is monoclinic, P21/n, with a = 8.128(1) Å, b = 18.577(2) Å, c = 9.524(2) Å and β = 94.92(2)°. The metal is six-coordinated forming with the ligands a slightly distorted octahedron. Eight water molecules were found in the crystal lattice.
