The preparation, spectroscopic study and crystal structures of two copper(II) complexes of closely related carboxyphenylazopyrimidine ligands, involving distorted square-pyramidal CuN4O and CuN3O2 chromophores
摘要:
The preparation, spectroscopic properties and crystal structures of two isostructural complexes [Cu(L(1))(dpa)] (l) [H(2)L(1)-6-amino-1,3-dimethyl-5(2'-carboxyphenyl)azo- uracil, dpa-2,2'-dipyridylamine] and [Cu(L(2))(dpa)] (2) [H(2)L(2) is 1,3-dimethyl-5(2'-carboxyphenylk)azobarbituric acid] are reported. The H(2)L ligands act in a double-deprotonated tridentate mode giving rise to CuN4O and CuN3O2 chromophores with distorted square-pyramidal geometry. The EPR spectra of 1 and 2 show that the replacement of the 6-amino group in the former by a hydroxyl group in the latter increases g parallel to and decreases A(\) values, clearly indicating that the in-plane ligand field strength of L(1) is greater than that of L(2) in 2.
