X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray absorption spectroscopic (XAS) studies have been conducted on two copper complexes, i.e., copper macrocyclic complex of succinic acid and ortho aminophenol (complex-1) and copper macrocyclic complex of pthalic acid and ortho aminophenol (complex-2). The diffraction pattern of the complexes have been recorded using Rigaku RINT-2000 X-ray diffractometer equipped with rotating anode X-ray tube operated at 40 kV and 100 mA. The X-ray absorption spectra of the complexes have been recorded at the K-edge of copper on Cauchois type bent crystal spectrograph having radius 0.4 m employing a mica crystal, oriented to reflect from (100) planes, for dispersion. The X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) parameters, viz., chemical shift, energy position of the principal absorption maximum and edge-width have been determined and discussed. From the extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) data, the bond lengths have been calculated using three methods, namely, Levy's method, Lytle, Sayers and Stern's (LSS) method and Fourier transformation method. The results obtained have been compared with each other and discussed.
