Abstract
The tetraazamacrocyclic copper(II) complex, [Cu(L)](ClO4)2 (L = 3,14-dimethyl-2,6,13,17-tetraazatricyclo[14.4.01.18.07.12]docosane), hydrolyzes DMF at room temperature. The formate anion which is one of the hydrolyzed species of DMF coordinates to the copper(II) ion to form [Cu(L1)(O2CH)](ClO4) · H2O (1). The crystals of the complex 1 were isolated and structurally characterized by a combination of analytical, spectroscopic, and crystallographic methods. In 1, the macrocyclic ligand contains two trans fused cyclohexane rings, and the coordination geometry about the copper(II) ion adopts a square pyramid with four equatorial nitrogen atoms from the macrocycle and an oxygen atom from the formato ligand with an uncoordinated perchlorate ion.
