Abstract

A new cis-dihalo copper(II) complex, [CuII(HLbz)(Cl)2].CH3CN (1), where HLbz = (S)-2-(((2-(2-(pyridin-2-yl)-2H-benzo[e][1,3]oxazin-3(4H)-yl)ethyl)amino)methyl)phenol), was isolated by reacting copper(II) chloride dihydrate and the H2L ligand (H2L = 2,2′-((2-(pyridin-2-yl)imidazolidine-1,3-diyl)bis(methylene))diphenol) in a MeOH/CH3CN (1:3 v/v) mixture. The complex formation occurred via the ligand modification during complexation, producing a unique structure containing 2H-benzo[e][1,3]oxazin, as observed from the single crystal X-ray structure determination. The complex was characterized by elemental analysis, potentiometric titration, spectroscopic techniques (UV–Vis, FT-IR) and conductance measurements. Complex 1 inhibits the growth of myelogenous leukemia cells with an IC50 of 17.3 μmol L−1.
