A novel ligand transfer reaction: Transferring an N 3 -donor amine ligand from Ni(II) to Cu(II)—structural, spectral, theoretical, and docking studies

Abstract

Two complexes of N1-(2-aminoethyl)propane-1,3-diamine (AEPD), [Ni(AEPD)2](NO3)2 (1) and [Cu2(μ-Cl)2(AEPD)2](NO3)2·2H2O (2), are prepared and identified by elemental analysis, Fourier transform infr...
