Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Fluorescence Property of a Binuclear Zn(II) Complex: [Zn2(μ-N3)2(N3)2(L)2] [L = 1-(1,10-phenanthrolin-2-yl)-2-pyridone

Abstract

AbstractHydrated zinc perchlorate reacted with sodium azide and 1-(1,10-phenanthrolin-2-yl)-2-pyridone (L) in methanol solution and resulted in the formation of a new binuclear complex: [Zn 2 (μ-N 3 ) 2 (N 3 ) 2 (L) 2 ]. The complex has been characterized by elemental analysis and IR spectrum, and its crystal structure determined by X-ray crystallography and the complex crystallizes in the monoclinic system with space group P2 1 /c and a = 11.409(2), b = 8.0733(15), c = 18.163(3) Ǻ, β = 99.095(3)°. In the complex two azide anions act as bridge ligand and another two azide anion and two 1-(1,10-phenanthrolin-2-yl)-2-pyridone function as terminal ligands, and Zn(II) ion lies in a distorted triangle bipyramid geometry.Index AbstractThe title binuclear Zn(II) complex was synthesized by zinc perchlorate, sodium azide and 1-(1,10-phenanthrolin-2-yl)-2-pyridone and its crystal structure determined. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that azide anion function as both bridge ligand and terminal ligand, and 1-(1,10-phenanthrolin-2-yl)-2-pyridone only acts as a terminal ligand.
