A novel 8-carboxyindeno[1,2-b]quinoxalin-11-one thiosemicarbazone zinc(II) Schiff base complex
摘要:
In the novel title binuclear zinc(II) Schiff base complex, bis(mu-11-thiosemicarbazonoindeno[ 1,2-b] quinoxaline-8-carboxylato) bis[(dimethyl sulfoxide) zinc(II)] dimethyl sulfoxide trisolvate, [Zn-2(C17H9N5O2S)(2)(C2H6OS)(2)]center dot 3C(2)H(6)OS, each Zn-II atom is five-coordinated and situated in a distorted square-pyramidal environment, coordinated by two L-2-ligands and one dimethyl sulfoxide molecule. Each L-2-ligand, which coordinates to two Zn-II atoms, has two parts. One part, acting in a tridentate chelating mode, coordinates to one Zn-II atom through two N atoms and one S atom, while another part coordinates to another Zn-II atom through a monodentate carboxylate group. The whole complex has a dimeric structure. The coordination mode of the nearly planar L-2-ligand is quite different from the most common mode for Schiff bases.
