Dinukleare Kupfer(II)‐Komplexe mit chiralen makrocyclischen Liganden vom Schiff‐Basen‐Typ: Synthesen und Strukturen

Complexes with Macrocyclic Ligands. V Dinuclear Copper(II) Complexes with Chiral Macrocyclic Ligands of Schiff‐Base Type: Syntheses and Structures The synthesis and properties of four chiral, dinuclear, macrocyclic, cationic copper(II) complexes, Cu₂(L^m,n)]²⁺ ( 1 – 4 ), are described. The two symmetrical compounds Cu₂(L^2,2)]ClO₄]₂ ( 1 and 2 ) were synthesized in a one‐step reaction from 2,6‐diformyl‐4‐tert.‐butylphenol, copper(II)‐perchlorate and the chiral diamine (1S,2S)‐1,2‐diphenylethylenediamine (synthesis of 1 ) and (1R,2R)‐1,2‐diaminocyclohexane (synthesis of 2 ), respectively. For the synthesis of the two unsymmetrical compounds Cu₂(L^Ph,n)]ClO₄]₂ ( 3 and 4 ) the mononuclear, neutral copper(II) complex CuL^Ph] ( 5 ) synthesized from 2,6‐diformyl‐4‐tert.‐butylphenol, copper(II)‐acetate and 1,2‐phenylenediamine] was reacted with (1R,2R)‐1,2‐diaminocyclohexane (synthesis of 3 ) and (S)‐1,1′‐binaphthyl‐2,2′‐diamine (synthesis of 4 ), respectively. The structures of the two unsymmetrical copper(II) compounds ( 3 and 4 ) were determined by X‐ray diffraction.
