Binuclear copper(II) complexes of a 24-membered macrocyclic Schiff base ligand containing intramolecularly bound substrate molecules and ions: X-ray structure of a µ-imidazolate complex

Abstract

In some bi-CuII complexes of a 24-membered macrocyclic Schiff base ligand, the metal centres are linked intramolecularly by the imidazolate anion, pyrazine, and other small bridging ligands; the X-ray structure of a µ-imidazolate complex is described.
