Synthesis,crystal structure and electronic properties of bis(N-2-bromophenyl-salicydenaminato)copper(II) complex

A new series of complexes of the type bis(N-substituted-salicydenaminato)copper(II) (1–9), have been synthesized and characterized by IR, UV–Vis and elemental analysis methods. The molecular structure of bis(N-2-bromophenyl-salicydenaminato)copper(II) (6), was determined using X-ray crystallography. There are two independent molecules in the structure. Each shows a neutral, mononuclear, four-coordinate, square-planar trans-Cu[N₂O₂] geometry and, in each, the Cu atom and the ligating atoms are coplanar. The chelating N–Cu–O angle is 91.39(11)° for molecule one and 91.20(11)° for molecule two, whereas the non-chelating N–Cu–O angles are 88.61(11) and 88.80(11)°, respectively. The trans-N–Cu–N and trans-O–Cu–O bond angles are 180°. The electronic absorption spectra of copper(II) complexes (1–9), indicate that the d–d band energy is dependent on the nature and position of substituent on phenyl ring of the salicyldenimine ligand. The UV–Vis spectra in various solvents were measured and a relationship between absorption spectra and dielectric constant of the solvents is reported.

An unexpected dinuclear Cu(II) complex, [Cu₂(L²)₂], has been synthesized via complexation of Cu(II) acetate monohydrate with a bis(Salamo) ligand H₂L¹. Catalysis of Cu(II) ions results in unexpected cleavage of two N–O bonds in H₂L¹, giving a dialkoxo-bridged dinuclear Cu(II) complex. Each Cu(II) complex possesses a Cu–O–Cu–O four-membered ring instead of the usual bis(Salamo) [Cu₂L¹] complex with H₂L¹. The H₂L¹ molecule is stabilized by intramolecular O1–H1?N1 hydrogen bonds and π?π stacking interactions linking adjacent molecules into a 1-D infinite zigzag chain. In the structure of the Cu(II) complex, intermolecular hydrogen bonds have stabilized the Cu(II) complex to form a self-assembling infinite 1-D linear chain. Furthermore, the H₂L¹ ligand shows intense photoluminescence with two emissions at ca. 370 and 464 nm upon excitation at 310 nm. The Cu(II) complex shows photoluminescence with maximum emission at ca. 423 nm upon excitation at 370 nm.     

Synthesis,crystal structure,and magnetic properties of a linear trinuclear Cu(II) complex

In the trimer, the three linear copper ions are bridged by two NTA carboxylate groups in a syn–anti conformation and connected by 4,4′-bpt to produce a 1-D array. Temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibilities reveal the presence of weak antiferromagnetic exchange between metal centers.     

Synthesis,crystal structure,antioxidation and DNA-binding properties of a dinuclear copper(II) complex with bis(N-salicylidene)-3-oxapentane-1,5-diamine

A Schiff base bis(N-salicylidene)-3-oxapentane-1,5-diamine (H₂L) and its Cu(II) complex, [Cu₂(L)₂]?CHCl₃, have been synthesized and characterized by physicochemical and spectroscopic methods. Single-crystal X-ray analysis revealed that the complex is a centrosymmetric binuclear neutral entity, in which Cu(II) is a five-coordinate in a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry. The DNA-binding properties of the free ligand and the complex have been investigated by electronic absorption, fluorescence, and viscosity measurements. The results suggest that the H₂L and the complex to DNA via the intercalation mode and the binding affinity of the complex were higher than that of the H₂L. The intrinsic binding constants K_b of the ligand and the complex are 2.2 × 10⁴ and 2.7 × 10⁴ M^?1, respectively. Antioxidant assay in vitro shows the Cu(II) complex possesses significant antioxidant activities and better scavenging activity than the H₂L and other antioxidants.     

Synthesis, molecular and crystal structure of bis(triethanolamine)manganese(II) saccharinate: a seven-coordinate manganese complex with tri- and tetradentate triethanolamine ligands

The synthesis, molecular and crystal structure of bis(triethanolamine)Mn(II) saccharinate, [Mn(tea)₂](sac)₂ are reported. The configuration of the tea ligands results in an unusual example of coordination number seven for the Mn(II) ion. The two triethanolamine (tea) ligands coordinate to the Mn(II) ion forming a monocapped trigonal prism geometry, in which one of the tea ligands behaves as a tridentate ligand, while the other one acts as a tetradentate donor. The free and coordinated hydroxyl hydrogens of the tea ligands are involved in hydrogen bonding with the amine nitrogen, carbonyl and sulfonyl oxygens of the neighbouring sac ions to form a three-dimensional infinite network. A weak π–π interaction between the phenyl rings of the sac ions also occurs.     

Mercury(II) complexes of stabilized phosphine-phosphonium ylide derived from bis(diphenylphosphino)methane: Synthesis, spectra and crystal structures

The reaction of a mixed phosphine-phosphonium ylide, PPh₂CH₂PPh₂C(H)C(O)Ph with mercury(II) halides in methanol under mild conditions yielded the P, C-chelated complexes, [HgX₂(PPh₂CH₂PPh₂C(H)C(O)Ph)] where X = Cl (2), Br (3), I (4).

A V-shaped ligand bis(N-methylbenzimidazol-2-ylmethyl)benzylamine (L) and its zinc(II) complex, [ZnL ₂](pic)₂?·?2CH₃CN (pic?=?picrate), have been synthesized and characterized by physico-chemical and spectroscopic methods. Single-crystal X-ray crystallographic analysis revealed that the Zn(II) complex possesses a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry. Supramolecular interactions arising from various intra- or intermolecular π···π stacking interactions contributed to the form of the multidimensional configuration. Interactions of L and Zn(II) complex with DNA were monitored using spectrophotometric methods and viscosity measurements. The results suggest that L and Zn(II) complex both bind to DNA via intercalation and Zn(II) complex binds to DNA more strongly than L. Moreover, the Zn(II) complex also exhibited potential antioxidant properties in vitro.     

Synthesis and characterization of Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II) and Cu(II) complexes with a new tetraazamacrocyclic Schiff base ligand containing a piperazine moiety: X-ray crystal structure determination of the Co(II) complex

Two macrocyclic Schiff base ligands, L¹ [1+1] and L² [2+2], have been obtained in a one-pot cyclocondensation of 1,4-bis(2-formylphenyl)piperazine and 1,3-diaminopropane. Unfortunately, because of the low solubility of both ligands, their separation was unsuccessful. In the direct reaction of these mixed ligands (L¹ and L²) and the appropriate metal ions only [CoL¹(NO₃)]ClO₄, [NiL¹](ClO₄)₂, [CuL¹](ClO₄)₂ and [ZnL¹(NO₃)]ClO₄ complexes have been isolated. All the complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, IR, FAB-MS, conductivity measurements and in the case of the [ZnL¹(NO₃)]ClO₄ complex with NMR spectroscopy.     

A copper(II) complex of benzimidazole-based ligand: synthesis,structure, redox aspects and fluorescence properties

Employing 1-(2-methoxybenzyl)-2-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1H-benzimidazole (bpb) as a monodentate ligand, a new greenish-blue copper(II) complex, [Cu(bpb)₂(NO₃)₂] (1a), has been synthesized. 1a has been characterized analytically and spectroscopically. The X-ray crystal structure of 1a reveals that it adopts a cis disposition with respect to the ligands. The solid state structure of 1a is stabilized by intramolecular offset face-to-face π–π stacking. Non-covalent supramolecular edge-to-face C–H?π interactions with neighboring molecules give 1-D supramolecular chains that further lead to the formation of an assembled 3-D supramolecular metal-organic framework via hydrogen bonding interactions. 1a shows blue fluorescence most likely due to intramolecular offset face-to-face π–π stacking. At room temperature, 1a is one-electron paramagnetic. It shows a rhombic EPR spectrum with g₁ = 2.12, g₂ = 2.42, and g₃ = 2.52 in the solid state at liquid nitrogen temperature. In cyclic voltammetry, 1a displays a one-electron oxidative Cu(II)/Cu(III) couple. Our DFT calculations, corroborate the observed experimental results of 1a.
