A ferromagnetically coupled single hydroxido bridged tetranuclear nickel(II) Schiff base complex incorporating a Ni4O4 cubane core: Crystal structure and magnetic study

Abstract The new tetranuclear nickel(II) complex [Ni4(OH)(L)(HL)2(CH3OH)1.5(H2O)1.5]·9H2O (1) has been synthesised by the reaction of NiCl2·6H2O and the Schiff base ligand H3L (H3L = (CH3O)(OH)C6H3CH N–C(CH3)(CH2OH)2), prepared by the 1:1 condensation of 2-amino-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol and o-vanillin, and characterized by different physicochemical methods. Single crystal X-ray structural determination identifies a Ni4O4 cubane moiety as the central part of the complex unit. The presence of a single μ3-hydroxido bridged oxygen occupying only one vertex of the Ni4O4 cubane core is rare in Ni4O4 cubanes (ca. 5% of occurrence). Structural analysis also reveals two similar alkoxido oxygen atoms…

Ferromagnetic copper(II)–copper(II) interaction in a single chlorido and dicyanamido bridged mixed–valence copper(I/II) 2D polymer generated by in situ partial reduction of copper(II)

A mixed-valence 2-D Cu(I/II) complex, [{Cu(II)(dmen)(μ-Cl)(μ1,5-dca)}{Cu(I)(μ1,5-dca)}]n (1) (dmen = N,N-dimethylethylenediamine, dca = dicyanamide = [N(CN)2]−), has been synthesized by in situ partial reduction of Cu(II) to Cu(I) using benzoin (2-hydroxy-1,2-di(phenyl)ethanone) as reductant. Complex 1 was characterized by spectroscopic techniques, single crystal X-ray diffraction, and low temperature magnetic measurements. Structural investigation reveals that 1 represents a mixed-valence 2-D coordination polymer formed by parallel 1-D [Cu(II)(dmen)(Cl)Cu(I)(μ1,5-dca)2]n chains running along the b axis, where chloride bridges Cu(II) ions of adjacent polymers through long connections (2.840…

Double azido/cyanato bridged copper(II) dimers incorporating tridentate nitrogen donors Schiff base: Structure, EPR and magnetic studies

Abstract A neutral tridentate nitrogen donor Schiff base ligand L (L = (E)-N-(phenyl(pyridin-2-yl)methylene)-2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethanamine) has been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic techniques, and employed to synthesize two new μ1,1-azido/cyanato bridged dinuclear copper(II) complexes, [Cu(L)(μ1,1-N3)(ClO4)]2 (1) and [Cu(L)(μ1,1-NCO)(ClO4)]2 (2). Both compounds have been spectroscopically and structurally characterized. Structural investigation reveals centro-symmetric nature of the complexes in which the center of inversion lies at the midpoint of the two copper(II) ions. The metal ions display distorted octahedral geometry. The tridentate neutral ligand L coordinates the metal…

The key role of hydrogen bonding in the nuclearity of three copper(II) complexes with hydrazone-derived ligands and nitrogen donor heterocycles

International audience; Three new Cu(II) complexes of formula [Cu(L1)(pyz)(CH3OH)]ClO4 (1), [Cu(L1)(4,4′-bpy)(ClO4)]·0.5H2O (2) and [{Cu(L2)(ClO4)}2(μ-4,4′-bpy)] (3) have been synthesised by using pyrazine (pyz) and 4,4′-bipyridine (4,4′-bpy) and tridentate O,N,O-donor hydrazone ligands, L1H and L2H, obtained by the condensation of 1,1,1-trifluoro-2,4-pentanedione with salicyloylhydrazide and benzhydrazide, respectively. The ligands and their complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, FT-IR, and UV–Vis spectroscopies. Single crystal X-ray structure analysis evidences the metal ion in a slightly deformed square pyramidal geometry in all the complexes. However complexes 1 and 2 …
