A new dinuclear Cu(II) complex, [Cu₂L(N₃)₂](ClO₄)₁.₅ (OH)_4.5 · 2H₂O 0.5C₂H₅OH (1), of a bis‐macrocyclic ligand, 2,6‐bis(l,4,7,10‐tetraazacyclododecan‐10‐ylmethyl)‐methoxybenzene (L), has been synthesized, characterized and structurally determined by X‐ray diffraction analysis. Complex 1 crystallizes in orthorhombic crystal system, Pca2(l) space group with a = 1.5371(3), b = 1.6641(3), c = 3.0950(6) nm, V = 7.917(3) nm³, F_w = 904.62, Z=8, D_c= 1.529 g/cm³ and final R = 0.0568, wR = 0.1406 for 10410 observed reflections with I≥2σ (I). Both Cu(II) centers in the structure are coordinated by four nitrogen atoms of 1,4,7, 10‐tetraazacyclododecane (cyclen) and a nitrogen donor of the axial azide anion. Each Cu(II) center is in a square‐pyramidal coordination environment, and the intra‐and nearest inter‐molecular Cu? Cu nonbonding distances are 0.9855 and 0.7298 nm, respectively.

Crystal structure and photoluminescence properties of a new monomeric copper(II) complex: bis(3‐{[(3‐hydroxypropyl)imino]methyl}‐4‐nitrophenolato‐κ3O,N,O′)copper(II)

Copper(II)–Schiff base complexes have attracted extensive interest due to their structural, electronic, magnetic and luminescence properties. The title novel monomeric Cu^II complex, [Cu(C₁₀H₁₁N₂O₄)₂], has been synthesized by the reaction of 3‐{[(3‐hydroxypropyl)imino]methyl}‐4‐nitrophenol (H₂L ) and copper(II) acetate monohydrate in methanol, and was characterized by elemental analysis, UV and IR spectroscopies, single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis and a photoluminescence study. The Cu^II atom is located on a centre of inversion and is coordinated by two imine N atoms, two phenoxy O atoms in a mutual trans disposition and two hydroxy O atoms in axial positions, forming an elongated octahedral geometry. In the crystal, intermolecular O—H…O hydrogen bonds link the molecules to form a one‐dimensional chain structure and π–π contacts also connect the molecules to form a three‐dimensional structure. The solid‐state photoluminescence properties of the complex and free H₂L have been investigated at room temperature in the visible region. When the complex and H₂L are excited under UV light at 349 nm, the complex displays a strong green emission at 520 nm and H₂L displays a blue emission at 480 nm.

X‐ray diffraction analysis shows that complex 1 consists of dimeric units in which the dicl ligand exhibits a bidentate syn,syn‐μ₂ coordination mode linking two copper(II) centres. Complexes 2 and 3 have mononuclear units with the general formula [Cu(dicl)₂L₂] (L is vim or im) in which the Cu^II ions are octahedrally coordinated by two L and two dicl chelating ligands. The L and dicl ligands both occupy the trans positions of the coordination octahedron. The different coordination modes of dicl in the title complexes were revealed by Fourier transform IR (FT–IR) spectroscopy. The spin matching between the copper(II) centres in the dimeric [Cu₂(μ‐dicl)₄(CH₃OH)₂] units was also confirmed by magnetic data to be lower than the spin‐only value and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra. The thermal properties of the complexes were investigated by thermogravimetric (TG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) techniques.

A binuclear copper(II) complex, [Cu₂(μ _1,3-N₃)(N₃)(pmp)₂(ClO₄)]ClO₄ (pmp = 2-((pyridin-2-yl) methoxy)-1,10-phenanthroline), was synthesized with a single azide as end-to-end bridge ligand, and pmp and perchlorate as ligands. In the crystal, Cu(II) is in a distorted square pyramidal geometry, and a single azide bridges equatorial-axial linking two Cu(II) ions with separation of 5.851 Å. There are π?π stacking interactions involving 1,10-phenanthroline rings. The variable-temperature (2–300 K) magnetic susceptibilities were analyzed using a binuclear Cu(II) magnetic formula and it indicates that there is a very weak ferromagnetic coupling with 2J = 2.82 cm^?1.     

An unexpected dinuclear Cu(II) complex with a bis(Salamo) chelating ligand: synthesis,crystal structure,and photophysical properties

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 and crystal structure of the dinuclear copper(II) Schiff base complex μ‐hydroxido‐μ‐chlorido‐bis{[bis(trans‐2‐nitrocinnamaldehyde)ethylenediamine]chloridocopper(II)} dichloromethane sesquisolvate

Transition metal complexes of Schiff base ligands have been shown to have particular application in catalysis and magnetism. The chemistry of copper complexes is of interest owing to their importance in biological and industrial processes. The reaction of copper(I) chloride with the bidentate Schiff base N,N′‐bis(trans‐2‐nitrocinnamaldehyde)ethylenediamine {Nca₂en, systematic name: (1E,1′E,2E,2′E)‐N,N′‐(ethane‐1,2‐diyl)bis[3‐(2‐nitrophenyl)prop‐2‐en‐1‐imine]} in a 1:1 molar ratio in dichloromethane without exclusion of air or moisture resulted in the formation of the title complex μ‐chlorido‐μ‐hydroxido‐bis(chlorido{(1E,1′E,2E,2′E)‐N,N′‐(ethane‐1,2‐diyl)bis[3‐(2‐nitrophenyl)prop‐2‐en‐1‐imine]‐κ²N,N′}copper(II)) dichloromethane sesquisolvate, [Cu₂Cl₃(OH)(C₂₀H₁₈N₄O₄)₂]·1.5CH₂Cl₂. The dinuclear complex has a folded four‐membered ring in an unsymmetrical Cu₂OCl₃ core in which the approximate trigonal bipyramidal coordination displays different angular distortions in the equatorial planes of the two Cu^II atoms; the chloride bridge is asymmetric, but the hydroxide bridge is symmetric. The chelate rings of the two Nca₂en ligands have different conformations, leading to a more marked bowing of one of the ligands compared with the other. This is the first reported dinuclear complex, and the first five‐coordinate complex, of the Nca₂en Schiff base ligand. Molecules of the dimer are associated in pairs by ring‐stacking interactions supported by C—H…Cl interactions with solvent molecules; a further ring‐stacking interaction exists between the two Schiff base ligands of each molecule.     

A new stepped tetranuclear copper(II) complex: synthesis,crystal structure and photoluminescence properties

Binuclear and tetranuclear copper(II) complexes are of interest because of their structural, magnetic and photoluminescence properties. Of the several important configurations of tetranuclear copper(II) complexes, there are limited reports on the crystal structures and solid‐state photoluminescence properties of `stepped' tetranuclear copper(II) complexes. A new Cu^II complex, namely bis{μ₃‐3‐[(4‐methoxy‐2‐oxidobenzylidene)amino]propanolato}bis{μ₂‐3‐[(4‐methoxy‐2‐oxidobenzylidene)amino]propanolato}tetracopper(II), [Cu₄(C₁₁H₁₃NO₃)₄], has been synthesized and characterized using elemental analysis, FT–IR, solid‐state UV–Vis spectroscopy and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The crystal structure determination shows that the complex is a stepped tetranuclear structure consisting of two dinuclear [Cu₂(L )₂] units {L is 3‐[(4‐methoxy‐2‐oxidobenzylidene)amino]propanolate}. The two terminal Cu^II atoms are four‐coordinated in square‐planar environments, while the two central Cu^II atoms are five‐coordinated in square‐pyramidal environments. The solid‐state photoluminescence properties of both the complex and 3‐[(2‐hydroxy‐4‐methoxybenzylidene)amino]propanol (H₂L ) have been investigated at room temperature in the visible region. When the complex and H₂L are excited under UV light at 349 nm, the complex displays a strong blue emission at 469 nm and H₂L displays a green emission at 515 nm.

Synthesis, molecular structure and intramolecular aromatic-ring stacking interaction of a novel binuclear Cu(Ⅱ) complex with 1, 10-phenanthroline and phenylacetate

The complex [Cu(phen)2(POAc)3]ClO·4H2O has been synthesized and investigated by elemental analysis, IR spec-troscopy and X-ray diffraction methods, where phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, POAc = phenylacetate group). The complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group PI with two molecules in a unit cell of dimensions a = 1.0579(2) nm, b = 1.2423(3) nm, c = 1.9190(4) nm, α = 71.84(1)°, β = 80.50(2)°, γ = 88.60(1)°, V = 2.3625(9) nm3, R = 0.0407 and Rw = 0.0656. The complex results from bridging of two Cu(phen)2 units by three carboxylate groups, and each Cu2 ion is in a distorted square pyramidal geometry with two nitrogen atoms of phen and three carboxylate oxygen atoms of POAc. It has been showed that intramolecular stacking interactions occur between the phenyl moieties of POAc and aromatic rings of phen, leading to a novel molecule structure with two coordinating modes of carboxylate ligands, of which two phenylacetates are μ2-carboxylate-O-bridging ligands, and the other is a μ2-carboxylate-     

Synthesis,crystal structures,and biological properties of a new naphthalimide Schiff base and its copper(II) complex

A new naphthalimide Schiff base N-allylamine-4-(ethylenediamine-3-methoxysalicylidene)-1,8-naphthalimide (HL) and its copper(II) complex {N-allylamine-4-(ethylenediamine-3-methoxysalicylidene)-1,8-naphthalimide copper(II)} (CuL₂) have been synthesized and characterized. The crystal structure of CuL₂ has been determined by X-ray single crystal diffraction. The central Cu(II) ion is four-coordinate with an N₂O₂ donor set which is afforded by two L ligands, forming a slightly distorted square planar geometry. The interactions of HL and CuL₂ with calf thymus DNA were investigated using electronic absorption titration, fluorescence titration, and viscosity measurements. The results indicate that free HL and CuL₂ bind to DNA in an intercalation mode, and their binding affinity for DNA takes the order CuL₂ > HL. Moreover, the antioxidant assay in vitro also shows that HL and CuL₂ possess significant antioxidant activities and CuL₂ is more effective than free HL.     

A mixed‐ligand copper(II) complex that inhibits growth and induces apoptosis by DNA targeting in human epithelial cervical cancer cells

A new mixed‐ligand copper(II) complex, [Cu(L)(phen)]⋅MeOH (L = 4‐chloro‐2‐[(2‐hydroxyphenyl)iminomethyl]phenol), was synthesized. It belongs to the orthorhombic crystal system and Cu(II) is five‐coordinated in a seriously distorted square pyramidal geometry. DNA binding experiments confirmed an intercalative mode of interaction of the complex with calf thymus DNA. In a DNA cleavage experiment with the complex, as hydrogen peroxide was involved, oxidative DNA cleavage occurred and double‐stranded breaks even appeared at certain concentration. The strong interaction with bovine serum albumin suggested that the complex might be transported by protein. The complex exhibited more significant cytotoxicity in HeLa cells (IC₅₀ = 0.46 ± 0.01 μM) for 48 h, compared with cisplatin (10.61 ± 0.86 μM). This work indicated that the complex could induce apoptosis in a dose‐dependent manner and was associated with cell cycle arrest to some extent. Being consistent with the results of DNA cleavage experiment, comet assay indicated that the complex induced severe DNA fragmentation. The results showed the production of reactive oxygen species increased with increasing concentration of the complex. The complex was suggested to be capable of promoting HeLa cell apoptosis through an oxidative DNA damage pathway.     

One‐dimensional copper(II) coordination polymers based on 1,3‐bis(pyridin‐4‐yl)propane and diimine ligands

Two one‐dimensional (1D) coordination polymers (CPs), namely catena‐poly[[[aqua(2,2′‐bipyridine‐κ²N,N′)(nitrato‐κO)copper(II)]‐μ‐1,3‐bis(pyridin‐4‐yl)propane‐κ²N:N′] nitrate], {[Cu(NO₃)(C₁₀H₈N₂)(C₁₃H₁₄N₂)(H₂O)]·NO₃}_n ( 1 ), and catena‐poly[[[aqua(nitrato‐κO)(1,10‐phenanthroline‐κ²N,N′)copper(II)]‐μ‐1,3‐bis(pyridin‐4‐yl)propane‐κ²N:N′] nitrate], {[Cu(NO₃)(C₁₂H₈N₂)(C₁₃H₁₄N₂)(H₂O)]·NO₃}_n ( 2 ), have been synthesized using [Cu(NO₃)(NN)(H₂O)₂]NO₃, where NN = 2,2′‐bipyridine (bpy) or 1,10‐phenanthroline (phen), as a linker in a 1:1 molar ratio. The CPs were characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and single‐crystal X‐ray structure determination. The 1,3‐bis(pyridin‐4‐yl)propane (dpp) ligand acts as a bridging ligand, leading to the formation of a 1D polymer. The octahedral coordination sphere around copper consists of two N atoms from bpy for 1 or phen for 2 , two N atoms from dpp, one O atom from water and one O atom from a coordinated nitrate anion. Each structure contains two crystallographically independent chains in the asymmetric unit and the chains are linked via hydrogen bonds into a three‐dimensional network.     

Synthesis,structures and magnetic properties of a series of polynuclear copper(II)‐lanthanide( III) complexes assembled with carboxylate and hydroxide ligands

Heterometallic copper(II)‐lanthanide(III) complexes have been made with a variety of exclusively O‐donor ligands including betaines (zwitterionic carboxylates) and chloroacetate, which are dinuclear CuLn, tetranuclear Cu₂Ln₂, pentanuclear C_u3Ln₂, and octadecanuclear C_u12 complexes. The results show that subtle changes in both the carboxylates and acidity of the reaction solution can cause drastic changes in the structures of the products. Magnetic studies exhibit that shielding of the Ln³⁺ 4f electrons by the outer shell electrons is very effective to preclude significant coupling interaction between the Ln³⁺ 4f electrons and Cu²⁺ 3d electrons in either a mono‐atomic hydroxide‐bridged, or a carboxylate‐bridged system.

The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n, with a?=?10.002(14), b?=?19.950(3), c?= 14.504(2) Å, β?=?108.842(3)° and Z?=?2. The structure refined to a final R value of 0.0644. The complex contains two copper(II) ions bridged by a reduced derivative of a nitronyl nitroxide biradical with a Cu?···?Cu separation of 8.430(2) Å.     

Synthesis,crystal structures and spectral properties of cobalt (Ⅱ) complexes:[ CoL (N_3) ] ·ClO_4 and CoL (N_3)_2 [L=tris ((3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl) methyl) amine

Two monomeric cobalt(Ⅱ)complexes,[CoL(N3)] ClO4(1)and CoL(N3)2(2),where L is tris((3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methyl)amine,were synthesized and their crystal structures were determined by X-ray diffraction technique.Complex 1 is five coordinated with one azide nitrogen atom and four nitrogen atoms of the tris((3,5-dimethylpyrazol-l-yl)-methyl)amine ligand,and the metal center is in distorted trigonal bipyramidal environment.Complex 2 is six coordinated distorted octahedron with the two azide nitrogen atoms and four nitrogen donors of the tris((3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-methyl)amine ligand.The solution behaviors of the title complexes have been further investigated by UV-Vis,and 1H NMR analysis.It is found that the formation of 1 and 2 depends on the molar ratio of the azide ion to metal salt and ligand Complex 1 attached with one azide group is more stable and easy to generate than complex 2 incorporated with two azide groups,and the reasons were well discussed.     

Synthesis,structure, and antioxidative properties of a copper(II) complex with 1,2-bis(benzimidazol-2-yl)ethane ligand

1,2-Bis(benzimidazol-2-yl)ethane (bbe) and its copper(II) complex, {[Cu(bbe)Br₂]₂}·2DMF ( 1 ), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, ultraviolet–visible, and infrared spectra. The single crystal structure analysis of 1 shows two crystallographically independent but chemically identical [Cu(bbe)Br₂] molecules. The coordination geometry of the copper atoms may best be described as a distorted tetrahedron (τ₄ = 0.740 for Cu1 and 0.696 for Cu2). The cyclic voltammogram of complex 1 represents quasi-reversible Cu²⁺/Cu⁺ pairs. in vitro antioxidant tests showed that complex 1 has significant antioxidant activity against superoxide and hydroxy radicals. Photoluminescence investigations showed that the fluorescence intensity of complex 1 is significantly weaker than that of the ligand. This may be due to the paramagnetic effect of divalent copper to cause quenching of fluorescence.

The preparation technique of a complex of copper(II) bromide with bis(benzotriazol-1-yl)methane (L), (Cu₂L₂Br₄)_n, is developed. The compound is studied by single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction and static magnetic susceptibility techniques. According to single crystal XRD data, the complex has a layered structure determined by bidentate bridging coordination of L with N(3) and N(3′) atoms to copper(II). The elementary unit of {Cu₂(μ-Br)₂Br₂} polymer has a binuclear structure. The coordination polyhedron is a trigonal pyramid, and the coordination core is CuN₂Br₃. The temperature dependence of effective magnetic moment is studied within an interval of 2–300 K. The nature of the μ_eff(T) dependence indicates that antiferromagnetic exchange interactions dominate in exchange clusters of the complex with an even number of paramagnetic centers.
