Synthesis, characterization and crystal structure of tetranuclear copper(II) complex [Cu4(μ-Salophen)2(μ1,1-N3)2(N3)2] with alternating μ1,1-azido and phenoxo bridges

Tetranuclear copper(II) complex [Cu₄(??-Salophen)₂(??_1,1-N₃)₂(N₃)₂] (I) has been synthesized from the reaction of Cu(NO₃)₂ · 3H₂O with the Schiff-base ligand salophen condensed from salicylaldehyde and 1,2-phenylenediamine at the presence of a large excess of NaN₃, which has been characterized by elemental analyses, FT-IR spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

The reaction of salpnH₂ Schiff-base ligand (salpnH₂ = N,N′-bis(salicylidene)-1,3-propylenediamine) with Cu(NO₃)₂·3H₂O and a large excess of NaN₃ (1:2:8 molar ration), lead to the formation of [Cu₄(μ-salpn)₂(μ_1,1-N₃)₂(N₃)₂(H₂O)₂] (1), which has been successfully obtained and characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The strong absorption band at about 2000–2100 cm^?1 and at 1597 cm^?1 regions of the IR spectrum of 1 clearly proves the presence of the both end-on (EO) bridging and terminal azido ions and CN (azomethine) groups, respectively. Single-crystal X-ray analyses revealed that the copper atoms are bridged alternately by end-to-on (EO) azido and phenoxo-salpn ligands in the prepared tetranuclear copper(II) complex [Cu₄(μ-salpn)₂(μ_1,1-N₃)₂(N₃)₂(H₂O)₂] (1).
