Abstract
A dinuclear copper(II) complex, [(CH3CN)Cu(L)2Cu](ClO4)2, has been synthesized by reacting an oxime-based tridentate Schiff base ligand, 3-[2-(dimethylamino)-ethylimino] butan-2-one oxime (HL), with copper(II) perchlorate hexahydrate. The complex has been characterized by elemental and spectral analyses. Structure of the complex has been confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction technique. The complex may be used as moderate catalyst for the oxidation of o-aminophenol to 2-aminophenoxazine-3-one.
