Abstract
Two new copper(II) complexes were synthesized by reaction of N-(3-aminopropyl)benzylamine (L1: apba, for complex 1) and N-salicylidene-apba (L2: for complex 2) with Cu2+. Crystals of complex 1 were orthorhombic, space group pccn, with a = 15.2149(10), b = 25.0071(16), c = 7.6280(5) Å and α = β = γ = 90°. Complex 2 crystals were monoclinic, space group P21/c, with a = 8.688(6), b = 12.812(9), c = 16.022(11) Å and β = 99.241(10)°. Structures of the two complexes were centro-symmetric and both Cu(II) atoms were four coordinate with a distorted square-planar geometry. The toxicity of the complexes was evaluated by testing antimicrobial activity against bacterial strands.
