Abstract

Two new halido-bridged dinuclear copper(II) complexes, [Cu2Cl2L2]·1.5H2O (1) and [Cu2Br2L2]·H2O (2), where L is the deprotonated form of the Schiff base 4-bromo-2-[(2-hydroxypropylimino)methyl]phenol, have been prepared and structurally characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra, and single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Each Cu atom in the complexes is coordinated by three donor atoms of Schiff bases and by two halide atoms, forming a square pyramidal geometry. The Cl and Br atoms are preferred bridging groups for the construction of dinuclear copper complexes with Schiff bases.
