Oxidation of substituted phenols using copper(II) metallatriangles formed through ligand sharing
Reaction of N(2),N(2')-bis-[(1-butyl-benzimidazol-2yl)methyl]biphenyl-2,2'-dicarboxamide (L) with CuX2⋅nH2O in methanol leads to the assembly of four trinuclear Cu(II) complexes with the general formula [Cu3(L)3X3]⋅3X⋅nH2O⋅mMeCN, where X=Cl(-), Br(-), NO3(-) and C6H5COO(-) and n=0-5, m=0-8 (compounds 1-4, respectively). The structure of one of the complex contains three Cu(II) metal ions at the corners of an equilateral triangle. Each of the copper(II) are coordinated through two benzimidazolyl imine N-atoms and two amide carbonyl O-atoms and the apical position is occupied by an anionic nitrate ion, leading to a distorted square pyramidal environment. The magnetic susceptibility data were …
