Self-assembly, electrochemistry and magnetic behaviors of cobalt complexes with featuring imidazole–tripodal ligand
摘要:
The coordination chemistry of imidazole-tripodal ligand N,N-bis(2-(1-methylimidazolyl)methyl)glycine (HL) has been studied with cobalt (II). Single-crystal X-ray analysis showed that the mononuclear complex [CoLCl] (1) could further act as the charge-negative metalloligand to assemble a heptanuclear complex of Co[CoLCl](6)(NO3)(2) (2) through the bridge linking of carboxylato O of L and the cooperation of the central metal ions. The electrochemical and magnetic properties were explored. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
