Synthesis, characterization and computational studies of zinc(II)-halide complexes with a bidentate schiff base ligand (2,5-MeO-ba)2En: The crystal structure of (2,5-MeO-ba)2En
摘要:
In this study four coordinated complexes of zinc(II) halides with a new symmetrical bidentate Schiff base ligand (2,5-MeO-ba)(2)En are synthesized and characterized. The metal to ligand ratio of the complexes is found to be 1:1 with the formula of Zn((2,5-MeO-ba)(2)En)X-2 (X = Cl (1), Br (2), I (3)). The crystal structure of the Schiff base ligand (2,5-MeO-ba)(2)En is determined by X-ray crystallography from single crystal data. Also, the optimized geometries of the Schiff base ligand (2,5-MeO-ba)(2)En and its zinc(II) complexes are calculated using the density functional theory method (B3LYP/6-31G). The obtained structural parameters of (2,5-MeO-ba)(2)En are in agreement with the experimental data.
