A new chloride bridged polymeric Cu(II) complex, [Cu(HL)(μ-Cl).H2O]n, 1, (H2L = 2,4-dichloro-6-{[(2-hydroxyethyl)imino]methyl}phenol) has been synthesized and characterized by elemental-spectral an...

0000-0002-2032-8930 WOS: 000416568000019 In the current work, a new coordination complex, [Cu(HL)(2)], 1 [H2L = 2-((E)-(2-hydroxypropylimino) methyl)-4-nitrophenol] was successfully synthesized and characterized by IR, UV-vis and photoluminescence spectroscopic techniques, single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction measurements. In the crystalline structure of complex 1, the aliphatic -OH group of the ligand is not coordinated and points away from the metal coordination zone, and also actively participates in intermolecular bifurcated O-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds which link the molecules to form hydrogen-bonded linear chains. C-H center dot center dot center dot pi and pi center dot center dot center dot pi contacts also connect the molecules in the structure which form to 3D structure. This hydrogen bonded polymeric networks lie in the bc-plane and stacks along to the a-axis. Furthermore, complex 1 and its ligand H2L display an intense navy-blue emission and blue emission in the solid state at room temperature, respectively, when they are excited under UV light.

A new linear trinuclear MnIII-MnII-MnIII complex 1 has been synthesized and characterized by elemental, spectral, X-ray and magnetic analysis. X-ray diffraction studies show that the central MnII ion is located at a crystallographic inversion center and is triply bridged to the terminal MnIII ions through one methoxide, one syn-syn carboxylate and one hydroxyl oxygen bridges with the short MnIII…MnII distance that is 3.047 A. The intermolecular C-H…O, C-H…π and ring-metal interactions are observed in the hydrogen-bonded assembly of 1. Magnetic studies reveal that the mixed-valence complex 1 has S = 3/2 ground state with antiferromagnetic exchange interactions between MnII and MnIII ions.

Two Schiff base complexes, [Cu(HL)2], 1 and [Ni(HL)2], 2 [H2L = 2–((E)–(2–hydroxyethylimino)methyl)–1–naptaphenol] have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. In the crystalline architecture of 1 and 2, intermolecular O−H···O hydrogen bonds link the molecules which form one-dimensional polymeric chain structure along the c axis. C−H···O and C−H···π intermolecular interaction also connect the molecules in the structures which form to 3D structures of 1 and 2. The ligand and metal complexes 1 and 2 were screened for antibacterial and antifungal activities.
