Three new copper(ii) complexes of formula [Cu(tppz)(NCO)(2)].0.4H(2)O (1), [Cu(2)(tppz)Br(4)](2) and [Cu(3)(tppz)(C(5)O(5))(3)(H(2)O)(3)].7H(2)O (3)[tppz = 2,3,5,6-tetrakis(2-pyridyl)pyrazine; C(5)O(5)(2-) = croconate, dianion of 4,5-dihydroxycyclopent-4-ene-1,2,3-trione] have been synthesised and structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction methods. The structure of complex is made up of neutral [Cu(tppz)(NCO)(2)] mononuclear units and uncoordinated water molecules. The mononuclear units are grouped by pairs to give a rather short copper-copper distance of 3.9244(4) angstroms. The structure of complex 1 consists of neutral tppz-bridged [Cu(2)(tppz)Br(4)] dinuclear units, the copper-copp…

Compound 1 is a tris-chelated mononuclear complex where the manganese atom is six-coordinate: four nitrogen atoms from two pyim molecules and two oxygen atoms from a croconate group build a somewhat distorted octahedral surrounding around the metal atom. The resulting neutral mononuclear units are linked to each other through double bridges which are constituted by th…

Hydrogen-bonded 2-(2-pyridyl)imidazole (pyim) manganese(II) complexes as building blocks for molecular assembling: Syntheses and structural characterization of cis-[Mn(pyim)2X2] compounds (X=, NCO− and NCS−)

Abstract The preparation and crystal structures of three new manganese(II) complexes with 2-(2-pyridyl)imidazole (pyim) and pseudohalides as ligands, cis-[Mn(pyim)2(N3)2] (1), cis-[Mn(pyim)2(NCO)2] (2) and cis-[Mn(pyim)2(NCS)2] (3), are reported. The structural building block in each structure is a mononuclear, neutral complex unit. The metal ion in each case adopts a distorted octahedral coordination geometry with the two pseudohalide ligands in cis positions. The main differences between the molecular structures of the three compounds are associated with the orientation of the anionic ligands. Hydrogen bonds between imidazole N–H and the metal-coordinated nitrogen atom of the pseudohalide…
