Abstract

Cu(II) complexes of β-diketiminate ligands with divergent N-aryl substitutions are reported. Exclusive formation of mononuclear [LCu(OAc)] complexes in the case of –CN substituted ligands and hydroxy bridged dinuclear [LCu(OH)]2 complexes in the case of –NO2 substituted ligands is observed. Most of the complexes were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Cyclic-voltammetric studies carried out on these complexes show that the reduction potentials correlate well with the expected electronic effects.
