Abstract

The interaction of 5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-[(8-quinolylhydrazono)]pyrazol-3-one (2) and 5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-(8-quinolylhydrazono)pyrazole-3-thione (4) with copper(II) acetate monohydrate under reflux in ethanol results in the formation of copper(II) azo chelates incorporating CuN4O2 (5) and CuN3S2 (6) chromophores. All the compounds were characterized with FT-IR, EPR, X-ray absorption spectroscopy and magnetic measurements. The structures of complexes 5 and 6 were determined by X-ray single-crystal diffraction. Complex 5 adopts a pseudo-octahedral geometry with a cis disposition of the oxygen atoms around the copper(II) centre, whilst in 6 the copper(II) ion displays a square-pyramidal geometry with a {N3S2} ligand environment.
