Abstract
Blue needle-shaped crystals of bromo{2-methoxy-6-[(pyridin-2-ylmethylimino)methyl]phenolate}copper(II), [CuBr(C14H13N2O2)], have been obtained and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectrum, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with unit cell dimensions a = 7.059(1) A, b = 18.504(3) A, c = 10.664(2) A, β = 105.415(2)°, V = 1,342.8(4) Ǻ3, Z = 4, R 1 = 0.0377 and wR 2 = 0.0751. X-ray structural determination revealed that the molecule of the mononuclear copper(II) complex is nearly coplanar. The Cu atom in the complex is tetra-coordinated by one phenolate O atom, one imine N atom, and one pyridine N atom of the Schiff base ligand, and by one terminal Br atom, forming a square planar coordination. A mononuclear copper(II) complex derived from the Schiff base 2-methoxy-6-[(pyridin-2-ylmethylimino)methyl]phenol has been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectrum, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The Cu atom in the complex is tetra-coordinated by one phenolate O atom, one imine N atom and one pyridine N atom of the Schiff base ligand, and by one terminal Br atom, forming a square planar coordination.
