In situ reduction of Cu(II) forming a double-stranded di-nuclear copper(I) helicate of a bis azino-pyridyl ligand
摘要:
A helical N-4-donor tetradentate Schiff base ligand (L) on reaction with Cu-II(ClO4)(2)center dot 6H(2)O at room temperature affords a double-stranded di-nuclear copper(l) helicate [(Cu2L2)-L-I](ClO4)(2).2H(2)O (1) by in situ reduction. Solid state structure of 1 has been determined by single-crystal X-ray studies. Solution studies of 1, performed by cyclic voltammetry, UV-Vis, ESI-MS and NMR spectroscopy reveal that 1 exits as both single helical [CuL](+) and double helical [Cu2L2](2+) in dichloromethane solution. The oxidation states of the metal ions have also been tested by Bond Valence Sum (BVS) method. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
