Abstract
The octadentate ligand [N(CH2CH2NH2)(CH2CH2CH2OH)(CH2CH2S)]2CH2, (NNOS-232)2CH2, was synthesized accidentally by the reaction of the unsymmetrically substituted tripod [N(CH2CH2NH2)(CH2CH2CH2OH)(CH2CH2SH)], NNOS-232, with dichloromethane in the presence of aluminum hydroxide. Ligand (NNOS-232)2CH2 was reacted with zinc bis(perchlorate) hexahydrate to yield the complex [Zn((NNOS-232)2CH2)](ClO4)2 1 exhibiting a distorted octahedrally coordinated zinc atom in an N4S2 coordination environment, as shown by an X-ray diffraction study.
