The C# minor chord (also known as Db minor) contains the notes C#-E-G#.
To build a C#m chord, take the minor triad formula (1-b3-5) and apply it to the C# major scale (C#, D#, E#, F#, G#, A#, B#).
Identify the first, third, and fifth scale degrees in a C# major scale which are C#-E#-G#.
Because the chord C#m is a minor chord, lower the third scale degree a half step in accordance with the minor triad formula, which results in the notes C#-E-G# for the C# minor chord.
